ALL-NEW LEVELS OF COMFORT AND PERFORMANCE
Already acclaimed for its outstanding productivity, Kubota’s U17 mini-excavator has been redesigned to offer even better performance and efficiency. With improved operability and stability, the all-new U18-5 improves your efficiency. The productivity is further enhanced by a redesigned operator space that maximises operator comfort and efficiency.
.A comfortable operator is a productive operator. That’s why the U18-5 operators’ space has been enhanced to ensure optimum comfort and efficiency throughout the working day. All controls are ergonomically placed for faster and easier operation. The front meter panel can be checked without shifting your eyes from the task in hand. The mobile phone holder is within easy reach from the operator’s seat and charges your phone as you work.
The arm, bucket, boom and AUX can be operated without affecting traveling performance, thanks to the travel-independent hydraulic circuit.
The U18-5’s track gauge can be expanded to a maximum of 1,300 mm to optimize stability when using heavy attachments. For better side stability, the maximum track expansion has been increased by 60mm. The track gauge can also be retracted to 990 mm for easier movement through narrow passageways and to allow work in tight spaces.
