After 25 years of being the best selling machines in their class in Europe, Kubota now has a refined offering in the 3 ton class with a machine to suit any operator or task.
Overall lifetime running costs are a focus for Kubota excavators and they have tackled this issue in a number of ways.
Reduced frequency of downtime by:
- Running the hydraulic pipes through the boom.
- Redesigning the dozer blade hydraulic pipes to minimize their chance of being caught.
- Kubota Anti Theft System ensures only programmed keys will enable the engine to start. You can add new keys and remove old ones to keep your machine safe.
Reduce downtime when repairs are needed by:
- Colour coding hydraulic pipes.
- Adding joints to keep replacement pipes shorter and easier to replace reducing replacement time by up to 60% in some areas.
- Diagnostics computer has also been built into the digital display eliminating any need to wait around for the laptop to arrive to identify the issue.
- Pinned and bushed from the kingpin to the bucket.
Improved efficiency:
- Kubota’s industry leading engine is built specifically for this machine from the ground up ensuring no compromises were taken.
- Simultaneous operation of the boom, arm, bucket, and swivel by way of two variable pumps which can distribute the oil accurately and evenly according to the lever stroke.
- Four specially designed tie down points ensure strapping down for transport is done quickly and safely every time without risk of drivers strapping in the wrong places causing unsafe loads or damage to the machine.
- Fuel level indication buzzer, for those filling with drums or bowsers without an anti spill device that alerts you that the machine is full before fuel overspills.
- Kubota Tracking System is available as a retrofit for these machines allowing for fuel, hours, whereabouts, etc to be checked remotely allowing for better planning.
High resale value:
- Kubota’s reputation for bulletproof reliability across their products as well as their consistency in producing some of the best excavators available across their entire range and history has resulted in one of the best resale values on the market.
