New Kubota wheel loaders

Kubota has launched its new-generation wheel loaders, the R070 and R090. Redesigned inside and out, the new machines are suitable for use in both pastoral and urban environments. Both the R070 and R090 wheel loaders boast a fully enclosed glass cabin for improved visibility, as well as a more ergonomic control layout.

A long reach and excellent lifting power ensures superior performance for a wide range of loader tasks, says the manufacturer. The R070 has a lifting capacity of 1,880kg and the R090 model 2,160kg, enabling operators to smoothly manoeuvre materials onto a wide range of trucks. All major loader functions are on a single lever that is easy to operate with just one hand, both on the R070 and R090. The 2-step speed control switch enables the operator to quickly change speeds for optimum efficiency.

Equipped with CRS and DPF, Kubota’s V2607 direct-injection engine is now fully Stage 5 compliant. Additionally, the new and improved DPF reduces maintenance by increasing the service intervals for both the regeneration filter and ash cleaner.
