Tight-tail-swing excavator

The Kubota KX080-3 8-ton, tight-tail-swing excavator offers more than 14,000 pounds of breakout force and is designed for work environments where space is limited but additional power is required. The KX080-3 also features a direct-injection diesel engine that can drive 14,660 pounds of bucket force and 8,554 pounds of arm crowd force, but still start easily in the cold while maintaining fuel efficiency. The excavator also improves travel by automatically downshifting into low when making turns, moving on soft earth or in extra-heavy-duty-use situations.
