    I think you breathe diggers and you are a hands on person, I love how enthusiastic you are over the machine. It's nice to see the machine and operator as one, I want a go, trucker tim did, lol, good job Amy..

    Yes… the KX080 can be loud… finally figured out I can put my noise canceling AirPods on and problem solved… other than that, though, KX080 is one of my favorite machines…. very versatile! Great for doing big jobs in tighter places and small jobs faster!

    Nice review, Kubota are certainly learning especially that as an operator time is of the essence when it comes to servicing. It's a shame however that they haven't got the bucket change over electronics working properly. To me its should be a simple software fix, everything is there it just needs a reprogram. Like the cab layout and how everything moves forward if you need it to. 👍🤗

    Great video Amy, these kubotas seem to be improving a lot. I can relate with the older 8 tonner being loud in the cab, very rattley too and squeaky when you had the front window up. These new models seem much better. Keep it up, and see ya next week!

  • @michaelguerin56
    @michaelguerin56 Год назад +1

    Good video. I reckon that the built-in toolbox compartment needs a minimum 20mm up-stand-and a 15mm tall outside flange on the underside of the toolbox lid-to keep water out. Whoever designed those toolboxes has never worked on a site in wind driven rain OR had to deal with roof/window/door flashing issues. Maybe they live away from a sea coast🧐?
    P.S. A fully exposed toolbox, as used on flat deck pickup trucks will need a taller up-stand and deeper outside flange combination.
    P.P.S. I suspect that, due to the latitude where you live, paint is subject to the UV-related fading that we see in New Zealand. Kubota may have standardised on the types of pigment/stabiliser combinations required for our country.

    Hello machine looks very appealing. But do you work in the wild mostly do you need a compact machine ?
    I don’t know for these but obviously I’ve found most renting companies uses kubotas with zero butt , long tracks instead of sufficient counter weight it’s because they resist well the bad treatment but also they shake the driver so much at work, the driver will calm down with time….
    Basically instead of having wear on the machine, the machine would shake the driver… a kind of machine -saving strategy that works pretty well.
    But when it’s your own machine and stay all day on it, especially working in the wild, maybe you prefer your machine having a serious back weight, keep smooth and staidy, keeping you in good condition at the end of the day ?

    Hi Amy love your videos machines can be very personal choice ive operatored machines for over 40years ive found kubota to be very cramped noisy cabs hydrolic system very eratic and seat terrible,yes there Japanese and very reliable but there not for me ,im currently driving a new case 130 e series which is terrible, tackuchi are best small machines for controability volvo best 14 and above.ive diven every machine available in career but like i say some people love fords some people love toyota etc but sorry Amy if i were buyin a midi digger id pass kubota by ,please could you review the takuchi and dont be biased 😂😂

    • @kip8790
      @kip8790 9 месяцев назад +1

      Had a Tak, moved on to a Kub, massive improvement. I think people overlook the model year that it came out. You can have two machines built the same year but one design is 5 years old and the other new that year, and that development time makes a huge difference. However I tested the Kub and the Tak and the Kub was nicer, maybe next time it’ll be the other way round.

      Hello there! We have the same issue. I also notice that when you rotate the upper structure and use arm or the dipper at the same time the rotation becomes jerky and there are some weird muffled noises. The dealer said it is normal. I really want to find out if this is normal because I still have one year warranty on it.

      Do a Google search for your problem or just perhaps "Kubota digger problems" chances are that'll take you to a forum somebody is discussing Kubota or maybe even your problem, that's assuming it's a common fault.
