Kubota Tractor Corp. enters the compact track loader market with the introduction of its 75-hp SVL75 and its 90-hp SVL90 models, which are powered by Kubota engines and are all-Kubota designed.

“These compact track loaders are well-suited to the rental market because of their excellent maneuverability and quick attach/detach functionality with powerful lifting capacity,” says Greg Embury, Kubota vice president, sales and marketing.

The 74.3 gross-hp SVL75 (pictured) features a 6,204-pound bucket breakout force and a 4,881-pound lifting capacity. The 90-gross-hp SVL90 has a bucket breakout force of 7,961 pounds and a lifting capacity of 5,869 pounds. Both models are powered by a four-cylinder, direct-injection, turbo-charged Kubota diesel engine.

The SVL75 and SVL90 are designed for time-saving maintenance, and feature a tilt-up cabin for convenient access. Daily maintenance checks for engine oil dipstick, fuel filter, water/fuel separator, air cleaner and coolant level are simple, and greasing the machine is also easy with all grease fittings accessible from the ground level.
