In the field of construction machinery, Kubota is also a ‘ wonderful work ‘, because it  focused on mini digging. In the domestic construction machinery market, Kubota ‘s small dig is very popular, in the second  market is also frequent transactions. Because of its large holdings and large volume of second-hand transactions, Kubota excavators on the market are also mixed. Today, SWAFLY came to teach you a few tricks to play Kubota !

Kuboat diesel engines

Kubota ‘s mini excavation nameplate has several formats, but not all nameplates are marked with the production year. But for a second head, the production year can be said to be decisive for its price. So how to judge according to other information on the nameplate without a clear production year ? We then look down !

Interpretation of Kubota engine number

The nameplate of Kubota excavator will mark the engine number, and the engine number has certain rules. First look at the following two comparison tables.

This is the comparison table of Kubota engine production year. The first letter of the engine number on the nameplate indicates its production year. A represents 2010 production, B represents 2011 production, and so on.

Look at the second table :

The first letter of the engine number represents the production year, and the second letter represents the production month. For example, A represents production in the first half of January, D represents production in the second half of February, and 24 letters from A to Z ( excluding I and O ) represent 24 and a half months of a year.

According to these two comparison tables, we can see the production date of Kubota engine. Generally, the engine will not be earlier than half a year before the final assembly of the whole machine. Based on this, we can infer the production date of the second-hand Kubota excavator. Of course, these must be based on the premise that the nameplate is not modified.

Approximate serial number year of Kubota

Each excavator has a unique number, which is the same as our ID number. The manufacturer ‘s information database records the production information of each excavator, including its production date and configuration information.

But this part of the information is confidential, some agents can query, we will also have part of the  excavator information sharing.

Kubota excavators with manufacturing numbers from 80000 to 82000 were produced before 2010, and those with manufacturing numbers after 82000 were produced in 2010. This data comes from an agent, you can refer to it.
