When you’re looking for a four-ton compact excavator, there’s no need to look any further than the Kubota KX040-4. Kubota’s tight-tail swing excavators offer complete visibility in the open cab or available cab models, as well as a deluxe high back suspension seat and ergonomically placed controls. Outside the operator’s station, your compact excavator is equipped with a centralized and lubricated swivel, protected cylinder hosing and bushings on all front pivot pins. You didn’t think Kubota would skimp out on durability did you? All of the KX040-4’s durability means that the machine is slightly heavier than the Yanmar SV40, but even with the added weight, the KX040-4 doesn’t sacrifice mobility. 

But how does the KX040-4’s durability compare to the Yanmar SV40? The SV40 features an angled crawler frame and similar steel protection as the KX040-4. However, Yanmar falls short of Kubota’s commitment to operator comfort. After all, a comfortable operator is a productive one. For the best in durability and comfort, it’s the Kubota KX040-4 and nothing else. 

But you’re more interested in the compact excavators’ performance, aren’t you? The Kubota KX040-4 houses a robust 40.4 horsepower engine and sports a 17.2 gpm auxiliary hydraulic flow. You’ll find a dominant 11’ 2” digging depth and deep fuel tank, letting you work all-day with complete peace of mind. So, how does it compare to how much horsepower the Yanmar SV40 has? The SV40 offers 39 horsepower and powerful hydraulic flow of its own, as well as the option for a second PTO functionality. The difference? The Kubota KX040-4 gives you over 2,000 pounds of increased bucket breakout force, faster traveling speeds and a larger fuel tank. When efficiency is the name of the game, you can’t go wrong with a KX040-4 tight-tail swing compact excavator.
