Engine / Driveline and transmission

Reaching a higher level of performance is easy when you have the greatest digging force in your class. The Kubota KX71-3 mini-excavator. Operate the control levers on the KX71-3 mini-excavator. And you have the most efficient, work site working power within your hands. Because the KX71-3 delivers the largest digging depth and reach of all Mini-excavators with a long arm in its weight category. Even at the long arm it surprisingly produces the greatest power in its class both for the arm and bucket digging. In addition, the lifting capacity of the KX71-3 is so strong. Along with a variety of robust features that complete the package, it makes the KX71-3 stand-alone
Digging arm and bucket
With the ability to deliver the greatest possible force, as well as with the efficiency of a long arm, the KX71-3 produces the largest digging depth of all length-armed mini-excavators. Even through its long arm specification, the KX71-3 surprisingly generates the biggest power for arms and bucket trenching. In addition, it has the capability to perform a wide range of tasks (in its class.)
Low noise level
When designing the KX71-3, we have continued to focus on being environmentally and user-friendly. Thus, the noise level of the KX71-3 in the cab is an amazingly low 79 db.
Kubota V1505-EBH engine
The powerful and reliable Kubota V1505-EBH engine ensures economical and environmentally friendly performance. The engine is so fuel efficient, a full tank gives 10 hours of continuous work.

Hydraulics

Variable displacement pump
For efficient operation, both the oil flow and pressure from the variable displacement pumps are adapted to the workload. By using variable pumps a more efficient engine is selected which results in fuel efficiency, low vibration and noise levels.
Hydraulic system
Pressure accumulator, Hydraulic pressure test ports, Straight travel circuit, third line hydraulic recirculation.
Working equipment
1150 mm Arm, auxiliary hydraulic circuit line to the arm end, 2 working lights on the cab and 1 light on the boom.
