Technical Description

The Kubota R530 is a compact wheel loader engineered for versatile material handling and construction applications. Powered by a Kubota V2607-CR-E4 diesel engine producing 47.9 net horsepower at 2,400 rpm, this machine delivers robust performance in a lightweight package weighing 4,220 kg operating weight. The R530 features a hydrostatic transmission with dual travel speeds reaching 12.5 mph forward and reverse, providing excellent maneuverability on job sites. Its articulation angle of 40 degrees enables superior turning radius capabilities for confined spaces. The standard bucket offers 0.8 cubic yard capacity with a breakout force of 7,761 lbs, while maintaining a lifting capacity sufficient for demanding tasks. The hydraulic system operates at 2,700 psi with a pump flow capacity of 14.3 gallons per minute, delivering responsive loader raise and lower times of 6.3 and 4.0 seconds respectively. Measuring 17.4 feet in length with 8.1-foot cab height and 5.7-foot width over tires, the R530 provides excellent reach at maximum lift and dump of 2.8 feet. Ground clearance of 1.1 feet accommodates varied terrain, while the rear axle oscillation of 8 degrees enhances stability on uneven surfaces. Equipped with a 365/70R18 tire size and differential lock on both axles, this loader ensures reliable traction. The 18.5-gallon fuel tank and efficient Tier 4 Final emissions certification support extended operational periods with environmental compliance.
