KX101-3α4 Kubota excavator specs & dimensions (2016 - 2026)

Strong digging force
A well-balanced arm and bucket guarantee superior digging power whenever you need it. The KX101-3α4 delivers an impressive shovel grab force. Its powerful and balanced arm and bucket allow the operator to finish work more effectively.
Reliable machine stability
Kubota excavators are designed and engineered to provide a level of machine stability that is secondary. The outstanding balance of the KX101-3α4 enables heavy loads to be carried easily and smoothly.
More driving force
A stronger travel power of the travel motor and improved turnability allow smooth dozer backfilling and levelling operation.
Working equipment
1350 mm Arm, auxiliary hydraulic circuits piping to the arm end, 2 working lights on the cab and 1 light on the boom.

Auto shift
The autoshift system allows automatic travel shift between high and low, depending on traction force and terrain. This achieves smoother operations when dozing and turning.

Informative, interactive and functional. Kubota's Intelligent Control System stops you in line with the vital signs of the KX101-3α4. It accurately shows diagnosis of current working conditions and warning indicators for engine speed and hour meter as well as fuel, temperature and oil level. When filling up using fuel, our panel also informs the operator that the tank is almost full; during routine maintenance work it alerts the operator. Overall, the panel reduces excavator downtime and repair costs by a decrease in total operating costs.
2-speed switch
The advanced 2-speed travel switch enables operator-friendly travel speed changes, improved operation, comfort and control. Whenever high engine speeds are not needed, this system automatically reduces the engine to idling rpm refurbishing it back to its original setting when working progresses. This helps reduce noise and exhaust emissions saving fuel
Kubota engine
Kubota's unique 31.1 hp (Three Vortex Combustion System) E-TVCS enables high energy output, low vibration and low fuel consumption while minimizing exhaust emissions.

Load Sensing Hydraulic System
Kubota's improved 1-pump load sensing hydraulic system ensures smoother operation, regardless of the load size. It allows flow of the hydraulic oil according to the specific area of lever movement of the operator.
Adjustable maximum oil flow on auxiliary circuit
The maximum oil flow rate of the auxiliary circuit can be changed/adjusted by simply pushing a switch without needing additional tools. This simplifies the use of front attachments such as tilt shovels, brush cutters and hydraulic hammers so you can reduce or increase flow to get exactly the right level of control.
Constant oil flow switch
Each attachment requiring a constant flow of oil enables this ON/OFF press switch to be operated easily.
Hydraulic system
Adjustable maximum oil flow to auxiliary circuit, pressure accumulator, Hydraulic pressure test ports, Straight travel circuit, third line hydraulic direct return for, Proportional auxiliary switch (AUX1) on right control lever.
Hydraulic system
Proportional auxiliary switch (AUX2) on left control lever, oil flow adjustment dial for AUX2

Undercarriage
300 mm rubber track, 1 x upper track roller, 4 x outer flange type lower track roller, 2 speed travel switch on dozer lever.

Engine inspection
Primary points, such as the engine and air cleaner, can easily be inspected and serviced via the rear bonnet of the engine. Fuel filters and water separators are independently installed from each other both within the strong and durable steel reinforced hood which is widely opened for quick inspection and routine maintenance. An engine inspection window is also located behind the seat to facilitate access to the engine injection nozzles.
Control valve inspection
A quick and easy inspection of the control valve is possible by simply opening the locking on the bonnet located to the right of the cab. If more detailed maintenance or repairs are required, the remaining panels can be easily removed at the swing frame with standard tools.

ROPS/FOPS (level, cabin and canopy
The cab and canopy offer maximum safety to the operator with their Rollover Protection Structure (ROPS) and Falling Object Protection Structure (FOPS).
Swivel negative brake
In the case of pivoting negative brake, the swing function is automatically locked when the engine is stopped or the control lever is raised. This feature eliminates the need for a moving transport lock pin.
