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.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I choose the KX-040 over the KX-033?

Choose the KX-040 when your project needs more digging depth, more power, or more excavation productivity than the KX-033 can offer.

How deep can the KX-040 dig?

It can dig to about 3,690 mm (12 ft 1 in), the deepest in the compact excavator fleet.

What trailer do I need to transport the KX-040?

A properly rated machine float trailer is required, along with a suitably rated tow vehicle.

Does the KX-040 fit through a residential gate?

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.

Is a license required to operate the KX-040 in Ontario?

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.
