2025 Kubota Compact Excavators KX040-4

Digging isn’t easy, but the Kubota KX040-4 will make it feel like it is. With 40.4 horsepower and an available cab for ultimate comfort, you’d be silly to ignore the KX040-4. Experience elite versatility, maneuverability and power like never before, and you’ll know what we mean when we talk about the Kubota difference. Kubota is the world’s #1 selling compact excavator for 20 years.

Features may include:

Hydraulic 6-in-1 Blade

Kubota's hydraulic 6-in-1 Blade can be angled right and left – and now, tilted as well. This blade enables six different positions: neutral, float-up, left-end-up, right-end-up, left-end-forward and right-end-forward. This feature makes leveling and backfilling work incredibly easy, even on inclines and uneven terrain, making you more productive and more efficient.

Clean Running Kubota Tier 4 Engine

Kubota excavators are all powered by Kubota Tier 4 emission engines. The modern engine design maximizes digging and lifting performance, delivers minimized noise and vibration and meets the latest engine emission regulation.

Two Speed Travel

All Kubota excavators have a two speed drive that allows for efficient machine maneuverability and backfill operations.

Changeable Control Pattern

Convenient Two-pattern Selection System (TPSS) allows you to change between ISO and SAE operating patterns with a quick flip of the TPSS switch – without tools or leaving your seat.
