Kubota KX-040 Mini Excavator Rental for the London, ON Area
Equipment Rental Brothers offers KX-040 mini excavator rental for the London, ON area, a 4-tonne compact excavator built for deeper digging, higher lift capacity, larger earthmoving volume, and tougher material conditions than the mid-size excavators in the fleet. This is the highest-capacity compact excavator in the lineup.
Available from our Otterville, ON yard for half-day, full-day, multi-day, and weekly rentals, the KX-040 is the step up when the KX-033 no longer offers enough depth or production.

- you need more digging depth than the KX-033
- the ground conditions are very dense or challenging
- the project involves larger excavation volume
- you need better loading height and production efficiency
- the job has outgrown the mid-size excavator class
Common Applications
The KX-040 is especially well suited to:
- deep utility trenching
- larger drainage projects
- full basement excavation on larger sites
- pond construction and larger earthmoving
- heavy material excavation in dense clay, fill, or difficult soil conditions
- efficient loading into dump trucks or larger spoil-handling setups
- Operating Weight: 4,040 kg (8,907 lbs)
- Max Digging Depth: 3,690 mm (12 ft 1 in)
- Max Reach at Ground Level: 6,025 mm (19 ft 9 in)
- Bucket Digging Force: 33.8 kN (7,598 lbf)

This machine offers the deepest digging and highest bucket force in the compact excavator fleet, but it also requires more access space and transport capacity.

Choose the KX-040 when your project needs more digging depth, more power, or more excavation productivity than the KX-033 can offer.
It can dig to about 3,690 mm (12 ft 1 in), the deepest in the compact excavator fleet.
A properly rated machine float trailer is required, along with a suitably rated tow vehicle.
No. At 1,740 mm wide, it is much wider than a standard residential gate and should be booked only where site access clearly accommodates it.
No provincial license is generally required for private or residential use, though commercial job sites may require competency documentation and prior experience is strongly preferred.
