Kubota Expands Its Bestselling Excavator Lineup
Two additions welcomed into Kubota’s robust excavator lineup – the K008-5 conventional tail swing excavator and the all-new U10-5 minimal tail swing excavator. The K008-5 will replace the -3 model with various upgrades and the U10-5 takes an all-new, in-demand spot in the U Series minimal tail swing lineup. Both models are now available at authorized Kubota dealerships.
“These excavators are ideal for tight, confined spaces, and with the U10-5 being a minimal tail swing model and both excavators featuring retractable tracks, they are ready to work in even the narrowest spaces on the job site,” said Patrick Baker, Kubota construction equipment product manager.
Refined, Never Confined
The K008-5 and U10-5 offer single-lever hydraulic adjustable tracks that quickly contract to fit through tight spaces easily – think doorways, fence gates, inside buildings, hallways, elevators and more. On the K008-5, the tracks adjust down to 2 ft. 4 in. and the U10-5 contracts to 2 ft. 6 in., then when the operator wants to widen the tracks, the tracks widen out to 2 ft. 10 in. and 3 ft. 3 in., respectively.
