Kubota KX057-4 vs Takeuchi TB260 in Bryant, Arkansas

Looking for a Compact Excavator for Sale in Bryant, Arkansas?

Finding yourself lost trying to decide between a Kubota KX057-4 and a Takeuchi TB260? That’s where your friends over at River Valley Tractor in Bryant come in! Let’s take a look at some reasons why you should go with the Kubota KX057-4 this go-around! 

Durability & Operator Comfort

Finding yourself in need of a six-ton excavator? You can’t get much better than the Kubota KX057-4! The Kubota excavator’s centralized swivel bears lubrication, perfect for extending the longevity of your machinery, alongside front pin bushings and protected two-way hosing. Kubota’s renowned, heavy-duty steel gives your excavator the armor it needs to meet your demands, something you’ll be thankful for during the toughest jobs on site.

Whether you opt for the standard open cab or the available closed cab, one thing is certain: the KX057-4 cab is spacious. A deluxe suspension seat, ergonomically placed controls, and a digital control panel all assist you in fighting fatigue throughout the day, and you can even switch between ISO and SAE operating patterns without even having to leave the excavator’s seat! So, how does the Kubota KX057-4’s durability compare to the Takeuchi TB260? The TB260 sports a rounded body, making for increased visibility and comparable, heavy-duty construction. Our take? Kubota’s established reputation for durability and comfort allows you to place your full faith in a big purchase, such as an excavator, and the KX057-4 doesn’t skimp out in either department.

Performance

No matter the project size, you’ll never stress capability with the performance provided by the Kubota KX057-4! The 47.6 horsepower Kubota excavator makes use of a Kubota-built engine, primed and ready to keep up with you on the job. All-new to the KX Series is an Eco mode, allowing you to shine favorably in Mother Nature’s eyes and reduce your fuel consumption in the process. Rein in the KX057-4’s raw power and ensure you’re always in control with standard two-speed travel and a 14,480 pound traction force. Ok, at this point, you’ve got to be curious as to how much horsepower the Takeuchi TB260 has? The TB260 has the exact same horsepower rating as the KX057-4, only this time it’s a Yanmar engine that grants it its 47.6 horsepower.

You’ll find that the TB260 has a deeper fuel tank and slightly larger traction force than the KX057-4, but the Kubota doesn’t let that deter it. A large range of attachments and implements assist you in tackling whatever job comes up, and you’ll tackle it with utmost confidence behind the controls of the KX057-4. Sure, the KX057-4’s dig depth of 12’ 8.2” and dumping height of 13’ 8.6” fall just shy of the Takeuchi TB260’s 12’ 9.4” digging depth and 13’ 10.1” dumping height, but the two-inch difference won’t give you a dominant advantage. When it comes to durability, comfort, and reliability, you just can’t beat the Kubota KX057-4!
