The Kubota U48 is a 4-5 tonne zero-tail-swing excavator that’s all about combining mid-size digging capability with the agility you need for working in tight urban spaces. Its design lets the upper structure swing right around within the tracks, so you can work safely and efficiently in narrow laneways, right up to buildings or fences, or just about anywhere else you need to get to.
Powered by a robust Kubota diesel engine, the U48 gives you the raw power and smooth hydraulic control you need for all sorts of jobs – from trenching and site cuts to compact civil works, pipe laying, and general excavation. The machine’s stability and lift capacity make it a versatile option for contractors who need a bit more oomph than a smaller mini can give.# The Operator Environment – A Look At Key Features
The operator environment on our machines features joysticks that are ergonomic and designed to reduce fatigue during long shifts, the visibility is excellent and the noise levels are very low. Plus the adjustable seating layout makes it comfortable to get a good working position no matter how long you’re behind the controls. If you want even more comfort and climate control then our optional cabs are the way to go, perfect for year round operation.
As for durability, its a real strength of ours. We’ve got reinforced body panels, a reliable undercarriage and easy to get to service points that make it easy to keep things running smoothly and get the most out of your machine. Our machines are perfect for hire fleets because of this and they also come into their own on small construction sites or in restricted areas where space is tight.
