Kubota Compact Wheel Loaders Summarized — 2017 Spec Guide
The Versatile R Series Is Equipped with Operator-Friendly, State-of-the-Art Features
Kubota’s wheel loader line, which consists of the R530 and the R630, offer great visibility, high power and productivity in a compact loader, says the company. Standard four-wheel drive, 100-percent on-demand differential lock and rear frame oscillation provide traction, ride and stability on both Kubota R-Series models.
The R630 exclusively offers four operating modes that can be easily selected to match the machine’s application. The optional heated and air conditioned enclosed cab for the R530 and R630 ensure year-round comfort with features like an adjustable suspension seat and good visibility for those long hours on the job.
The convenient joystick mounted forward and reverse switch allows for on-the-go direction changes without clutching or braking. An optional quick-coupler makes for fast, safe and easy bucket and attachment changes. The quick-coupler is available in both a skid loader style and Euro style coupler to best fit the owner’s needs. Machine maintenance is done quickly with easy access points and best of all; the R530 and R630 are powered by a reliable Kubota Tier 4 Final diesel engine.
Advice to Buyers
“As one decides to invest in a wheel loader, there are several factors to consider,” notes Jeff Jacobsmeyer, Kubota product manager for wheel loaders, excavators and TLBs. “Lift height, machine height and lift capacity are most likely the top three specifications that are considered when purchasing a compact wheel loader. It is important to fit your machine to your specific application to be sure you have made the right choice. Furthermore, it is also important to consider where the unit will be working and what percentage of time will the machine be on dirt compared to a solid surface. Many manufacturers offer excellent performance characteristics in both applications due to locking axles and oscillating frame designs. It is always best to put the machine in your specific application so all these questions can be answered before the purchase.”
