Kubota U25 Super Series
Zero Tail Swing
Compact Excavators

The agility to into the tightest spots and the performance to work its way out.

When the list of features starts with zero tail swing, includes strong bucket breakout force, and an advanced digital information panel, you know this excavator has what it takes to do the job. When larger machines won't fit, the U25 can get in, get the job done, and get back out again with superior speed and maximum efficiency.

Tough job got you in a corner? Put a U25 to work on it. Zero-tail swing keeps the tail within the width of the tracks, so you can turn the house throughout its 360-degree turning radius without worrying about what is to the side or behind you. Zero-tail swing also ensures excellent balance, stability and fast operation, making the U25 ideal for jobs in congested urban areas.

Digital Panel. Kubota's Intelligent Control System can help reduce downtime and repair fees by providing timely diagnostic readings and routine maintenance alerts. The large digital panel displays current working conditions, warning indicators, engine rpm and hour meter, fuel, temperature and oil levels. The panel not only lets you know when fuel is running low, but alerts you during refueling when the tank is nearly full.

Fuel Overflow Prevention. The U25's fuel system warns you when the tank is nearly full. To begin refueling, turn the ignition key to the OFF position and press any of the buttons on the digital panel. The system will begin beeping. When the tank is nearly full, the interval between the beeps will become shorter.

Strong Bucket Breakout Force. The U25 offers a powerful breakout force: 6,350 lbs with the dedicated bucket and quick coupler. That's more than enough to keep the U25 working efficiently even under the heaviest loads on the toughest excavating jobs. Max Digging Depth: 9'3". Max. Digging Height: 14'10". Max. Digging Radius at Ground: 15'4".

Strong Lifting Capacity. Powerful and responsive, the U25's front working group provides superior lifting capacity for digging, lifting, and loading. Even when working to the side, using hydraulic attachments, or lifting heavy objects, the U25 remains supremely stable, thanks to its innovative counter balancing technology, long tumbler distance, and Double Outer Flanged Lower Track Rollers.

Working Range. The U25's large bucket capacity, excellent reach and digging depth, give it the ability to perform a wide range of digging jobs with maximum efficiency and speed.

Thumb Bracket. The optional hydraulic thumb allows you to handle a variety of loading and digging jobs without stopping to change implements. It works with the bucket to pinch materials for loading and carrying. When no longer needed, it retracts to permit normal excavation. The U25's factory-installed thumb bracket and auxiliary hydraulics significantly reduce the time needed to mount the hydraulic thumb.

2-Speed Travel Switch. Changing speeds while dozing is now as easy as pressing a switch on the dozer lever. THis 2-speed travel switch offers enhanced control and greater comfort while freeing up space on the floor.

ROPS/FOPS Canopy. The U25's ROPS/FOPS canopy provides complete protection from accidental rollovers and falling objects. The canopy is OSHA certified to ensure an extra level of safety and security on the job.

Wrist Rests. Adjustable wrist rests help reduce arm movement and increase operator comfort for greater work efficiency.

Suspension Seat. Equipped with wrist rests, the U25's deluxe seat reduces fatigue and increases productivity by providing optimum comfort for operators of all sizes.

Wider Foot Area. More legroom means more operator comfort. And that means less operator fatigue and greater job efficiency.

Two-Pattern Selection System (TPSS). With a quick flick of a switch, the U25 changes from an ISO to an SAE operating pattern or back again. No tools are needed, and you don't have to leave your seat.

Protected Bucket Cylinder Hoses. Routing the bucket cylinder hoses within the arm not only provides greater protection, it also improves operator visibility, increases hose service life, and lowers repair costs.

Auxiliary Hydraulic System. Designed to accommodate a variety of attachments, such as breakers and augers, the U25's auxiliary hydraulic system consists of port pipes on the arm, bi-directional auxiliary hydraulic controls, and a control valve. The auxiliary hydraulic connections are located within easy reach and incorporate short hoses that are less likely to become tangled or damaged.

Upper Track Roller. Permanently lubricated upper track rollers prevent the tracks from hitting the frame while the machine is moving, reducing both noise and wear.

Front Pin Bushings. Pin bushings are installed at all of the pivot points along the swing bracket, boom, arm, and bucket. Pin type bushings not only last longer, they are easier to replace when necessary.

Well Protected Front Attachment Hoses. To protect the front hoses from accidental damage, they are routed through the swing bracket. A metal cover plate at the back of the boom protects the operator should hose damage occur.

Maintenance. Wide-opening covers provide fast and easy access to all critical engine components. The control valves are located under the deck. Two-piece hose connections for the dozer and boom cylinders simplify hose replacement and reduce downtime.

Safe, Controlled Starts. When the safety control lever is moved upward, the console moves with it, providing more room for entry and exit. To prevent unexpected machine movement during entry or exit, the pilot and travel controls are then disabled. This is the only time that the engine will crank over.

Straight Travel. Kubota's Hydraulic Matching System keeps the U25 traveling in a straight line while operating the boom, ensuring safer loading and off-loading.

Swivel Negative Brake. Whenever the engine is stopped or the safety control lever is raised, the swivel negative brake automatically locks the house in its current position, thus eliminating the need for a swivel transport lock pin.
