ENGINE

• Powered by the reliable, economic, high power, Stage V-compliant, direct-injection Kubota V2607-CR-E5 4 cylinder diesel engine, you can look forward to minimum vibration, low noise and excellent fuel consumption
• Automatic DPF regeneration for reduced down-time and maintenance thanks to an increase in service intervals for both the regeneration filter and ash cleaner.
• Kubota’s Auto Idling System is fitted as standard. When control levers are left in neutral for longer than 4 seconds, the system automatically reduces the engine to idling RPM.
• Routine maintenance is made simpler with access to all main engine components positioned on one-side for easier and quick inspection.

HYDRAULICS

• Kubota’s load-sensing 2-pump hydraulic system ensures smooth operation regardless of load size for greater fuel economy.
• Two auxiliary circuits come as standard with precise oil flow programmable for specific attachments (up to five oil flow rates) into the memory of the digital display panel. The system comes with nine pre-installed attachment icons.
• The high spec model has an electronically controlled 3rd line hydraulic return that is automatically activated when the operator selects breaker mode on the digital panel in the cab.

VERSATILITY

• The dozer float function makes ground finishing work faster and easy. After back filling, simply travel backwards along the covered ditch with the dozer in the float position.
• The tight tail swing of the U56-5 makes it easier to carry out operations in confined spaces.

PERFORMANCE

• A well-balanced machine with a powerful digging force of up to 42.3kN gives you the power you need to work efficiently even in difficult conditions.
• The two-speed auto-shift feature automatically adjusts speed and traction force depending on load size and terrain, providing smoother turns and dozer work.
