KUBOTA KX080-3
Operational Performance
Kubota, the world’s compact excavator leader, introduces the ideal solution for jobsites requiring extra performance in tight quarters. The KX080-3 SUPER SERIES, Kubota’s first 8-tonne excavator, is everything Kubota customers expect, and much more. The Kubota DI engine powers the 3-pump load sensing hydraulic system through the hardest, heaviest work with industrial digging forces. You can work in the comfort of a safety-certified, air-conditioned cab. Plus, fuel-saving, adjustable auxiliary flow rates and auto-idle help you control operating expenses. You get all of this, and more, only from Kubota.
Clean running Kubota Engine
A 66.6-horsepower Kubota diesel engine provides the energy behind the powerful KX080-3S working performance. The 3331 cc Turbo Direct-injection engine contributes to easy starting on those cold mornings, low sound levels, and energy-saving fuel economy. And because Kubota is environmentally conscious, the engine complies with the U.S. EPA’s
2008 interim Tier IV emissions regulations—without losing horsepower or ease of operation.
Auto Idling System
Save fuel with Kubota's Auto Idle. Reduce engine RPM instinctively when high engine speed isn’t needed. Whenthe control levers are in neutral for more than 4 seconds, the engine RPM automatically idles. Move any control lever and the engine RPM immediately returns. This innovative
feature reduces noise and exhaust emissions while reducing
Electric Fuel Refilling Pump
The KX080-3S’s new, standard refuelling pump includes a hose long enough to refuel from a fuel tank. With this pump, the tank can be completely filled in approximately three minutes with just a simple push of a button. Upon completion, an auto-stop feature ends fuelling to eliminate spillage.
Auto Shift
Now your excavator moves how you want it to—even at high speeds. When working with heavy loads, making turns or backfilling trenches, the system automatically downshifts for more torque. This shift is so smooth and seamless you’ll feel as though you’ve never left high speed.
3-pump Load-Sensing Hydraulic System
Kubota’s load-sensing hydraulic system guarantees
smoother handling, regardless of load size. It allows
hydraulic oil to flow according to your precise needs.
The KX080-3S’s new 3-pump load-sensing system
also allows you to perform simultaneous operations,
such as dozing and utilising front attachments, without losing speed.
Stability and Working Range
The KX080-3S design combines smooth, harmonised, hydraulic system performance with optimum balance in a tight tail swing excavator for versatile stability. Together with extended dumping height, a swing boom, large bucket capacity and deep digging depth, the KX080-3S can match or
exceed the latest high capacity dumper, tipper, and construction site requirements.
Adjustable Maximum Oil Flow
Control for Auxiliary Port
This unique function lets you control the oil flow
according to your needs or the attachment in use. It
eliminates the hassle of using tools to change settings manually, so you don’t have to leave the cabin. When using a tilt bucket, you can slow the flow to get just the right control to gently shape a swale. Alternatively, for a brush cutter, direct the oil flow to one side of the excavator arm. The system will even store your settings for the next time you
need it, saving time and quickly regulating the
flow requirements. Adjustable oil flow enhances performance
and saves fuel.
Industrial Digging Force
You need exceptional power when trenching through compacted soil. With the KX080-3S, elevated productivity levels are certain with the combination of 6,650 kg bucket force and 3,880 kg arm forces. The KX080-3S powers through those demanding applications so that you can quickly move on to the next job.
Tight Tail Swing
The KX080-3S is designed with a shorter rear
overhang. Thanks to this contoured, tight tail design,
the KX080-3S is more stable, can handle a wider
range of loads, and can work in more restrictive
spaces than traditional tail swing excavators
The 360mm tight tail swing of the KX080-3S
maximises machine balance and
increases versatility.
Third-line Hydraulic Return
When working with one-way
hydraulic attachments, such as a breaker or brush cutter, the
standard third-line hydraulic return system allows oil to flow directly back to the tan without running through the control valves. This contributes to less oil contamination, reduced back pressure, and greater oil flow efficiency.
Durability, Maintenance & Safety
Triple Opening Bonnet
All three of the excavator’s access panels can open at once. This allows you to easily inspect and view the centrally located components of the KX080-3S. You can easily access the hydraulic components under the centre hood, or the battery, oil filter and tool box under the right hood. Maintaining your excavator has never been this easy
ROPS/FOPS Cabin
The ROPS/FOPS certified cabin provides protection in the event of accidental rollovers and falling objects.
Movable Console
Raise the safety control lever and the console moves
with it, providing more room for entry and exit. To
prevent unexpected machine movement during entry
or exit, all control levers are then disabled until the
console is back in place.
Swivel Negative Brake
The swivel negative brake automatically locks the
swivel function in its current position. This prevents
unexpected machine movement. It’s particularly
useful during work or when transporting the
excavator between worksites.
Overload Alarm
To better ensure worker safety and equipment condition, the KX080-3S comes equipped with
an overload alarm. This alarm alerts the operator when load
capacity has been exceeded, helping to prevent possible injury
to workers and costly damage to the excavator and worksite.
Operator Comfort
Digital Panel
Informative, interactive and functional, Kubota’s
Intelligent Control System LCD panel accurately displays timely diagnostic readings and routine maintenance alerts. You’ll be kept informed of your current working conditions, engine RPM, temperature and oil levels. It even emits an alert when the tank is nearly full during refuelling. These new features help reduce downtime and costly repair fees.
Easy-open Front Window
Unlike many excavator windows, the front glass
window of the KX080-3S opens with ease. Just flip the latch on the side of the window and slide it up. A gas assist mechanism makes this action almost effortless.
Advanced Visibility Mirrors
Kubota has reshaped the rearview mirror to offer a wider
range of visibility. Together with
the two side-view mirrors, you
get a better view of your worksite, as well as your immediate surroundings.
Air Conditioner
The KX080-3S features an air conditioner/heater for greater climate control. In addition, fresh outside air can be easily introduced by activating the external
air vent.
Cab Guttering
The KX080-3S now features a guttering system to the cab’s roof. This helps prevent rainwater from entering the cab, even when the window is open on a rainy day.
Window Guard
Operators need protection from flying chips and debris when using some attachments. On some sites, antivandalism is important. Kubota provides the window guard mounting points around the front window as a standard feature.
Deluxe Suspension Seat
Designed and engineered
with comfort in mind, Kubota’s
high-back suspension seat
reduces strain and minimises
operator fatigue. It reclines to
accommodate your individual
posture, and offers weight
compensation, firm arm
support and retractable
seat belts.
TPSS
The Two-Pattern Selection System can shift control styles, whether it’s the ISO pattern or the SAE backhoe pattern, with the simple turn of a switch.
