Kubota KX080-3 Excavator Hire in Sydney

A Reliable 8-Tonne Workhorse Built for Real Job Sites

On busy Sydney job sites, you need a machine that’s dependable, easy to control, and powerful enough to keep work moving. That’s why the Kubota KX080-3 continues to be one of the most requested machines for 8-tonne excavator hire at HammerHire.

It’s not oversized, not underpowered. The KX080-3 sits right in the middle, making it ideal for civil works, demolition, and larger residential projects where space, precision, and productivity all matter.

Built for Consistent, Everyday Performance

The Kubota KX080-3 is powered by the proven Kubota V3800 diesel engine, delivering around 70 horsepower. What operators appreciate most is how smooth and predictable the machine feels. Power is delivered evenly, making it easier to dig accurately, lift safely, and work efficiently across long days on site.

With an operating weight of approximately 8,200 kg, the KX080-3 remains stable when digging hard ground or handling heavy material. Its strong bucket breakout force allows it to push through clay, shale, and compacted soil without constant repositioning. This means cleaner trenches, better cycle times, and less fatigue for operators.

Kubota machines are widely known for reliability, and the KX080-3 has earned that reputation on real Australian job sites.

Designed for Sydney Construction Conditions

Sydney construction often means tight access, neighbouring structures, and limited room to move. The Kubota KX080-3 is well suited to these conditions.

Key features include:

• Digging depth of up to 4.6 metres, ideal for trenching, drainage, and service installations
• Tight tail swing design for safer operation in confined spaces and urban environments
• Load-sensing hydraulics that provide smooth, controlled movements, even when multitasking

Whether you’re working in residential streets, commercial developments, or civil projects, this excavator offers a strong balance of power and control.
