Manufacturer Kubota UK has exhibited its new range of compact wheeled loaders and tracked dumpers at the Executive Hire Show.

The company said a total of 11 new machines would enter the UK market throughout the next few months, marking the first time that Kubota has launched a whole range of wheeled loaders in the company’s history.

The RT Series wheeled loaders incorporate a 45o articulation-oscillating angle for easy access into small spaces without damaging surfaces. The compact machines offer 450kg to 1500kg lift capacity, with a tipping load of up to 2100kg and lift height of 2.5m on the largest RT280 loader, which can also travel at up to 25kph.

Meanwhile, new tracked dumpers added to the company’s line-up include the KC250HR-4, boasting a 84o dumping angle, a rotary function allowing the user to tip side-ways at 180o and a maximum loading capacity of 2500kg.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Executive Hire Show, taking place on the 10th and 11th February at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry, UK.
