Digging arm and bucketThe KX41-3 comes with the biggestboom lifting force in its class*. A longarm, now a standard feature, providesincreased dig depth and diggingradius. The end result is a performancethat gives you the confidence to takeon the toughest jobs. (* As of April 2004.)

990 mm

1300 mm

Variable track gauge*To improve stability of the KX41-3V whenworking, its tracks expand from 990mmto 1300mm. After hydraulically retractingtrack width, the KX41-3V can manoeuvrein the same space as a standard width1.5-ton excavator. By operating a controllever, both expansion and retraction canbe performed in just seconds. (* On the KX41-3V model only.)

Boom cylinderFor increased reliability when performing inhazardous conditions, including demolitionjobs when a breaker is fitted, werepositioned the boom cylinder above theboom to prevent cylinder damage. Liftingforce has also increased, thanks to theboom cylinder’s new design with largerdiameter and increased hydraulic pressure.

Variable displacement pumpFor efficient operation, the variabledisplacement pumps provide theoptimum hydraulic oil flow andpressure according to the workload.The result is an engine that delivershigher fuel efficiency while alsodecreasing vibration and noise.

Balanced performanceSmooth, simultaneous, and precisecontrol of the boom, arm, bucket, andslew are achieved with Kubota’s uniquehydraulic system. And, because theyare perfectly matched, you’re assuredsmooth and accurate control.

Reach your optimum performance level withmaximum comfort and maximum safety.

Wide operator’s areaRelocating operation levers and consolesto a more user-friendly position not onlymakes operating the KX41-3 easier, butat the same time, has also made theoperating area amazingly spacious.

Cabin door spaceBy increasing the cabin door space by a generous89mm, easy entering and exiting is now possible.Previous model : 396mm. KX41-3 : 485mm.

Deluxe cabinTo minimise fatigue, our cabin delivers maximum comfort byoffering more legroom, an adjustable suspention seat, and anexceptionally low noise level of LpA76dB. (Canopy noise level:75db.) It’s comparable to our 3-ton KX-3 series cabin, and isalso equipped with a Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS)and a Falling Objects Protective Structure (FOPS).

ROPS/FOPSWhen you’re well protected, you canconcentrate more on the job athand. That’s why both our cabin and4-post canopy come equipped withROPS and FOPS.

2-speed travel switch on dozer leverThe 2-speed travel switch has beenre-designed from a floor pedal to afinger-touch button that’s beenrelocated to the dozer lever. This newdesign lets you enjoy greater comfortfrom increased legroom as well asconvenient changing of travel speed.

Lock systemTo prevent unexpected machinemovement, the safety lever must beraised to lock out the travel levers andpilot controls before the engine will start.

Dozer cylinder hosesUtilising a more efficient two-piece design, the KX41-3’sdozer cylinder hoses can bereplaced easily.

Straight travelFor safer loading and unloading,Kubota’s unique hydraulic StraightTravel System ensures the KX41-3 oftravelling straight, even duringsimultaneous operations.

Easy engine maintenance and protected cylinderhoses keep productivity up by reducing downtime.

Quick maintenanceAccessing the engine is easy, thanksto a full-opening rear bonnet. For quickdaily maintenance, simply open thebonnet to expose oil filter, coolant, airfilter, radiator, and more.

Kubota engineThe Kubota D-902 engine with 898ccdisplacement provides economical andenvironmentally clean power.

Protected cylinder hosesTo extend service life and improvevisibility, the bucket cylinder hoses arewell protected having been routedthrough the arm.
