Good Afternoon,
I recently purchased a Kubota KX-080-4 (note the #4) excavator, brand spanking new. Been using it for 3 months now and from day one realized that this machine TIPS OVER upon less than normal use. Holding a 42" bucket EMPTY, the machine tips over when fully extended.
This is on a flat surface.
Machine is JUST capable of handling a 2 foot bucket (filled) at full reach over the side.
There is a hydraulic thumb and quick coupler installed on the machine.
This model KX080-4 is relatively new model.
Is anyone else aware of any stability issues with the (-4) model. We know people who own a KX-080-3 that have no problems.
Anyone own one of these that is experiencing the same problem?
Our dealer is suggested we buy counter weights. So we did, purchased extra counterweights and problem still exists. We are currently waiting for Kubota rep to contact us to discuss issue with them, we were just reaching out to see if anyone else is experiencing similar issue.
Thanks,
