Another advantage is the ease of performing
inspections and maintenance. The unique
wide-opening Tilt-Up Cabin makes it possible to
quickly and safely complete these tasks with the
Bucket Arm remaining lowered to the ground.

and safer.
What innovative Kubota technology is incorporated in
these SVL models?
Nakata: Of special note is the Anti-Stall Mechanism.
Normally in high-load operations, even an
experienced operator must pay close attention so
that the engine does not stall. With this feature,
however, the likelihood of such an occurrence is
kept to a minimum so that the operator comfortably
continues operations making maximum effective
use of engine horsepower.
Another unique technology not available on
the models offered by competitors is the
Arm Link Mechanism which makes
it possible to stably raise the
loaded Bucket non-stop
from the ground to its
highest point.
Kubota’s unique
Vertical Lift
Outstanding Crawler Performance
To overcome the effects of frequent shocks and vibrations, what steps
were taken to enhance the durability of the Crawlers?
Nakata: A CTL operates at nearly two to three times the speed of mini
excavators. As a result, the strength and the durability of the
Crawler is a critical factor. Building on the well-established
technology Kubota has gained from its years of experience,
careful preliminary studies were undertaken, research related
to materials and methods were conducted, and the resulting
materials and forms were repeatedly tested to develop
Crawlers with significantly greater quality and durability than
those fitted to the products of competitors.
