New Kubota U48-5 compact excavator – good old fashioned power, packed with modern features
When Kubota dreamed up their new U48-5 compact excavator, they envisioned a powerful, versatile 40.4 horsepower machine with 9304 pound breakout force that could take on the toughest jobs anyone can dish out. Mission accomplished. But they also made sure to include all the modern bells and whistles like optional keyless start, rear view camera and KubotaNOW telematics and more, just to make those tough jobs just wee bit cushier. Factor in an optional hydraulic angle blade and the new U48-5 is ready to help you break new ground, in more ways than one.
