Mini-Excavators
Mini-excavator
The KX080-3 mini-excavator features Kubota’s load-sensing hydraulic
system engineered for smoother handling regardless of load size. The
system also allows the operator to perform simultaneous operations such
as dozing and utilizing front attachments without losing speed. For
optimal fuel savings, an auto-idle system reduces engine rpm
instinctively when high engine speed isn’t needed. When the control
levers are in neutral for more than 4 seconds, the engine rpm
automatically idles. Move any control lever and the engine rpm
immediately returns.

Breaker
DeWalt introduces the D25980K
breaker, designed for plumbers, waterproofers, demolition crews and
public utilities workers to break up concrete and asphalt on the
jobsite. The breaker is equipped with metal, automotive-style seals on
the ram and piston. These seals help to prevent dust and debris from
entering the unit, ensuring a longer life. The D25980K offers 61
foot-pounds of impact energy and it is designed with an electronic
control system that provides the unit with a controlled start and
constant speed under load. The soft-start system allows the breaker to
begin breaking as soon as the tool comes in contact with concrete.

and on an angle with the grain of the wood, reducing vibration and fuel
consumption. The Model 1490XP features a 17 3/4-inch high by 19.5-inch
