2022 Kubota U48-5 Series

Demanding jobs demand versatility. The Kubota U48-5 4.8-ton tight tail swing excavator delivers, with advanced performance and a large cab that features a 7” LCD monitor to provide vital information and auxiliary flow settings. With outstanding operator comfort and serious digging power, it’s ready to work when you are.

Features may include:

Large comfortable Cab to suit all operators

Not all operators are the same size. That’s why the interior of the Kubota U48-5 is generously-sized, with an adjustable seat and available air ride seat and sunshade. Plus, there’s more headroom and floor space along with a slim, ergonomically positioned right meter panel. Low Noise* World-class noise reduction technology helps protect the operator’s hearing as well as provides a more comfortable working environment for the operator. Rear engine noise is reduced by a metal partition between the engine and the cab. The floor plate is also thicker to reduce noise from beneath the cab. The U48-5 Cab noise level is 74 dBa at the ear.

Available 5 auxiliary flow settings

Go with the flow: there are 5 auxiliary flow settings available on the U48-5, to match the attachment performance with the electronic return-to-tank for one-way flow attachments such as the Kubota Hydraulic Breaker. Dual Auxiliaries are standard equipment that allow thumb and attachment to be plumbed at same time.

9500 lbs of bucket breakout force

Get the power to get the job done. With performance-matched buckets to help provide 9500lbs. of bucket breakout force, even tough digging jobs can be completed quickly and efficiently.

Keyless start option

When time is precious, it’s the little things that make the difference. The U48-5 offers a keyless start option, with the ability to program 10 different codes so every operator can have their own.

Increased visibility

Visibility is critical when operating equipment. With more glass in the front window, skylight, and left and right windows, operators get a wider viewpoint.

LED work lights with turn-off delay

The LED work lights can be programed to turn off 30 seconds to 2 minutes after the engine has stopped. This allows the operator to exit the machine and walk away safely under full illumination.
