Features

Zero Tail Swing, Zero Worries

Forget worrying about obstacles to the side or behind you with the U17-5. Our zero-tail swing design ensures the tail always stays within the width of the tracks when tracks are fully expanded, providing excellent balance, stability, and faster operation. Ideal for congested work areas, the U17-5 lets you focus on the job at hand with confidence.

Increased Stability with Expandable Tracks

Our expandable tracks give you increased stability and control, extending the width of the track frame to 51”’s. With this wider footprint, you’ll feel more grounded and sturdy, even in challenging terrain. Plus, easily manoeuvre through tight spaces with the tracks retracted.

Two Pattern Selector System (TPSS) For Easy Adjustments

Operate in either pattern A (backhoe) or pattern B (excavator) with the Two Pattern Selector System (TPSS) with pilot control hydraulics as standard.

Versatile Attachments

Compatible with a wide range of attachments, including a trenching bucket, ditching bucket, tilt ditching bucket, root rake, auger, plate compactor, breaker, and more. With these tools at your disposal, you’ll feel empowered to tackle any job with ease and efficiency. Get ready to take your productivity to new heights with our expanded attachment capabilities.

Thumb Option for Effortless Grabbing

Excavators rely heavily on the quality of their attached tools. Kubota provides a thumb option for the U17-5, transforming it into a multipurpose tool. This thumb enables effortless object grabbing and ensures your load stays securely in the bucket. Additionally, the thumb bracket comes standard from the factory, equipped with a relief valve to safeguard the cylinder.

Work Smart With Auto Idle

After the control levers remain in neutral for over 4 seconds, engine RPM automatically idles, swiftly returning to normal upon lever movement. This innovative function reduces noise, exhaust emissions and cuts operating costs and fuel consumption. It can be easily activated or deactivated as needed.
