It was the management of these implements that lead S&amp;R Landscapes to invest in the Kubota U27-4 mini-excavator.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUsing different implements allows us to complete a number of different jobs in different applications, but the work involved in changing each implement can cause a lot of machinery downtime\u201d, says Max Smith, Director at S&amp;R Landscapes.<\/p>\n<p>He continues: \u201cThe purchase of the Kubota U27-4 mini excavator has not only provided a much more powerful performance, but the machine also boasts twin hydraulic lines to run all our attachments. These hydraulic lines will automatically change the hydraulic hoses, meaning we can change each implement without having to leave the cab, allowing us to complete jobs far more efficiently.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the largest cab in its class, the U excavator series from Kubota is the most reliable and durable machine on the market to date, able to meet the demands of the toughest tasks in the tightest spaces with ease. In addition, the excavator utilises Kubota\u2019s latest industry leading engine technology, designed to offer maximum fuel efficiency, minimal noise and vibration, as well as low emission levels that meet current regulations.<\/p>\n<p>Max concluded: \u201cWe have been running the excavator for a few months now and the efficiency gains we have reaped in such a small amount of time are clear to see. Combing the reliability and compact nature of the machine with simple implement changes allows us to meet any landscaping requirement quickly and efficiently.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Kubota and its service solutions for the construction groundcare and agriculture sectors visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kubota.co.uk\">www.kubota.co.uk<\/a> or call 01844 268000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>S&amp;R Landscapes is reaping the benefits of enhanced machinery performance thanks to the purchase of Kubota\u2019s U27-4 mini excavator from <\/p>\n<a class=\"btn-sub-green l-blog-post-readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/2017\/09\/sr-landscapes-reap-enhanced-efficency-benefits-from-kubota-purchase\/\" title=\"Read more\">Read more<\/a>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":916,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-plant-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/915","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=915"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/915\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":917,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/915\/revisions\/917"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=915"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=915"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=915"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
