Product Description

Kubota U17-5

MEET THE U17-5 COMPACT EXCAVATOR

Experience the power and comfort of the Kubota U17-5 compact excavator, designed with a zero-tail swing unit for enhanced maneuverability. Packed with advanced features like a new engine, auto-idle for fuel efficiency, and an ergonomic operator environment, it's built to tackle any job with ease. Safety is prioritized with standard telematics, an emergency stop switch, and two auxiliary circuits for ultimate control and peace of mind on every project.

VARIABLE TRACK GAUGE

U17-5 tracks
The U17-5’s track gauge can be expanded to a maximum of 4'3.2" (1,300 mm) to optimize stability when using heavy attachments. For better side stability, the maximum track expansion has been increased by 2.4" (60 mm). The track gauge can also be retracted to 3'3.0" (990 mm) for easier movement through narrow passageways and to allow work in tight spaces.

ZERO-TAIL WING

U17-5 zero-tail swing
Zero-tail swing means you’ll never again worry about what is to the side or behind you while you work. No matter how far you turn, the tail always remains within the width of the tracks. Zero-tail swing also ensures excellent balance, stability and faster operation, making the U17-5 ideal for jobs in congested urban areas.
