SVL97-3
The SVL97-3 replaces the popular SVL97-2 with a wide range of performance, comfort and productivity features. Still rated at 96.4 horsepower, the SVL97-3 is ready to move ground and tackle rough terrain in comfort and confidence. Factor in its dominant lift capacity, breakout force and advanced hydraulic system and we think you and the SVL97-3 are going to get along nicely. Want more? How about features such as a 1-piece sealed cab, adjustable track response, auto downshift, and a host of others? A workhorse, a go-getter, and ready to adapt to any condition-- the Kubota SVL97-3.

Features May Include:

Standard 2-Speed Travel and Selectable One-Way Self-Level

• Shift from low gear to high gear to get the job done faster. One-way hydraulic self-leveling can be engaged at the flip of a switch and helps keep the bucket or pallet forks in a horizontal position without the need to manually adjust the angle during lifting.

Available with Low Effort Hydraulic Pilot Controls

• Work next to home structures and curbs with confidence. Different from Electro-Hydraulic Controls, these hydraulic controls provide maximum feel and precision – with no adjustments or settings necessary. Start moving when you think you’re going to start, and stop moving when you think you’re going to stop. The Kubota exclusive ergonomically designed grips have all the necessary buttons and switches within reach.

Advanced Auto Downshift

• The Advanced Auto Downshift system allows machine to smoothly drive into large piles or push heavy loads and gives outstanding turning performance. The ECU is constantly monitoring the traction load. When the traction load gets high, but before the machine starts to lose traction, it automatically shifts down for better low-range torque. Once the traction load is eased, it shifts back up automatically for high speed. Now you can just leave it in high speed regardless of the work!

One-piece, Sealed Cab

• The SVL97-3 is equipped with Kubota’s new one-piece sealed cab that helps prevent dirt, dust, rain and debris from entering the operator space while also reducing noise levels.

Swing-out radiator

• The swing-out radiator on the SVL97-3 opens up the engine compartment for easier access to routine service items.
