Swing motor for Kubota U08 U10 U10-3 mini excavator
If you decide to buy equipment at a low price, make sure that you communicate with the real seller. Find out as much information about the owner of the equipment as possible. One way of cheating is to represent yourself as a real company. In case of suspicion, inform us about this for additional control, through the feedback form.
Before you decide to make a purchase, carefully review several sales offers to understand the average cost of your chosen equipment. If the price of the offer you like is much lower than similar offers, think about it. A significant price difference may indicate hidden defects or an attempt by the seller to commit fraudulent acts.
Do not buy products which price is too different from the average price for similar equipment.
Do not give consent to dubious pledges and prepaid goods. In case of doubt, do not be afraid to clarify details, ask for additional photographs and documents for equipment, check the authenticity of documents, ask questions.
The most common type of fraud. Unfair sellers may request a certain amount of advance payment to “book” your right to purchase equipment. Thus, fraudsters can collect a large amount and disappear, no longer get in touch.
- Transfer of prepayment to the card
- Do not make an advance payment without paperwork confirming the process of transferring money, if during the communication the seller is in doubt.
- Transfer to the “Trustee” account
- Such a request should be alarming, most likely you are communicating with a fraudster.
- Transfer to a company account with a similar name
- Be careful, fraudsters may disguise themselves as well-known companies, making minor changes to the name. Do not transfer funds if the company name is in doubt.
- Substitution of own details in the invoice of a real company
- Before making a transfer, make sure that the specified details are correct, and whether they relate to the specified company.

3. Critical Installation Requirements
Case Priming (Mandatory)
Before starting the engine or operating the machine, manually fill the swing motor housing with clean hydraulic oil through the highest case drain port. Operating an axial piston motor dry for even a few seconds will cause immediate mechanical failure of the piston shoes and cylinder block.
Verify Case Drain Line Clearance
Check that the case drain return line back to the hydraulic reservoir is entirely unobstructed and free of backpressure. Any restriction or blockage in this line will immediately blow out the motor's main shaft seal.
Slew Ring Pinion Greasing
Thoroughly clean the mounting face on the excavator chassis. Apply a generous coating of premium heavy-duty lithium grease to the output shaft pinion gear and the main swing bearing ring teeth during assembly.
Hydraulic Decontamination
If the previous motor suffered a catastrophic mechanical breakdown, you must drain the hydraulic reservoir, flush the supply lines, and clean out any trapped metal fragments before installing the new aftermarket unit to prevent premature abrasive wear.
4. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Are the swing motors for the Kubota U10, U10-3, and U08 fully interchangeable?
A: Yes, these ultra-compact models utilize the same base hydraulic platform and structural frame size for their upper swing drive system. Always verify your exact Machine Serial Number before ordering to confirm fitting types.
Q: My mini excavator cabin drifts slowly when I am trying to dig or park on an incline. Will replacing the motor fix this?
A: Yes. Slow swing drift is typically caused by worn internal mechanical brake friction discs or leaking relief valves within the swing motor housing. Replacing the complete assembly restores full holding power.
Q: How is this motor protected against damage during shipping?
A: The assembly is treated with rust-inhibiting storage oil, sealed with heavy-duty port plugs to prevent dirt entry, wrapped in a moisture barrier, and secured inside a cushioned, high-strength shipping box to prevent shaft or port damage.
