New Kubota U50-5 GL Cabin Mini Excavator
Tight Tail Swing Power, Site-Ready Safety & Superior Reach. The Kubota U50-5 GL is a next-generation, 5-tonne class mini excavator engineered to excel on confined, high-profile jobsites where space is limited and safety standards are absolute. Built with a tight tail swing footprint, this versatile machine allows operators to rotate and dig confidently against walls, roads, and obstructions. This premium configuration comes fully equipped with a factory-fitted **Amber and Green Flashing Beacon Kit**, providing automatic compliance on strict commercial construction and utility sites where the green beacon signals a secured operator seatbelt. Featuring continuous, surface-friendly **Rubber Tracks** over a rigid **Fixed Undercarriage**, and outfitted with a factory **Extended Long Arm**, the U50-5 provides impressive excavation depths, strong lifting capacities, and unmatched stability across mixed Island terrain.
