Equipment Overview
The Kubota KX040 is a 4.1-tonne mini excavator with a zero-tail-swing design, commonly used where manoeuvrability, digging performance and transportability are important. It’s suited to contractors needing a balance of digging depth, stability and compact dimensions for urban and residential applications, handling trenching, grading, lifting and material handling in confined job sites. The angle blade option moves in a single forward direction for efficient trench backfilling, and a float function lets operators finish ground quickly without adjusting dozer height.
Power comes from a Kubota engine producing 40 hp (30.1 kW), giving the machine the muscle for demanding mini excavator work cycles. Bucket breakout force reaches 42.4 kN, and a 2-speed travel switch on the dozer lever makes dozing operations faster and easier. Kubota’s Auto-idle system helps save fuel, and an Auto House Parking Brake automatically locks the upper structure for added safety during operation.
