Description
The 2018 Kubota U55-4 is an industry-standard 5.4-tonne class mini excavator that features a Zero-Tail-Swing (U) configuration. It is built with an integrated counterweight that spins entirely within the width of its track pads, rendering it highly applicable for utility infrastructure, urban road works, and deep digging near structural masonry.

Hydraulic Management System
System Design: Kubota's Load-Sensing Hydraulic System combined with a high-capacity variable displacement axial piston pump.
Main Hydraulic Flow Capacity: 131.1 L/min
Auxiliary Hydraulic Circuit (SP1 Aux Flow): 75.0 L/min (Ideal for driving attachments such as hydraulic thumbs, breakers, or augers)
Auxiliary Circuit (SP2 Optional Flow): 37.0 L/min
Main Relief System Pressure: 27.4 MPa (274 bar)
Core Design and Mechanical Highlights
Built-In Original Anti-Theft Security: Fully integrated with Kubota's electronic keys. Only programmed black keys allow ignition, and code resets require the master Red Key.
Auto-Shift Drivetrain Tracks: While grading or counter-turning on slopes, the transmission automatically switches from High to Low speed based on load detection, shielding the travel motors from internal pressure spikes.
Proportional Auxiliary Slide-Switches: The primary high-flow hydraulic line is managed via proportional slider buttons on the right joystick head. This gives the operator fine, incremental thumb-control over attachments without utilizing heavy foot pedals.
Front Cylinder Shrouds: Outfitted with heavy-duty pressed-steel plates encasing the boom lift cylinder rod to guard against accidental impacts from bucket linkages or wall contact.
