What the specifications mean

01

Gross SAE J1995 and net SAE J1349 output remain separate technical identities.

02

The 4,165 kg / 9,182 lb value is the detailed model-page operating weight, not the rounded 4.6-ton series card.

03

Hydraulic pump capacity and breakout force are screening values; attachment flow, pressure and configuration still need confirmation.

Configurations and options to verify

  • Canopy and cab forms and rubber or steel tracks are listed; confirm the exact build before transport planning.
  • Angle-blade and six-way-blade choices change function and weight.
  • Rear camera, coupler and attachment packages must be verified on the candidate machine.

Used KX040-5 inspection priorities

  • Check rubber tracks, sprockets, rollers and idlers together; inspect final-drive leakage and travel response.
  • Measure boom, arm, bucket, swing-post and blade-pin play, then test drift under load.
  • Operate auxiliary hydraulics and the coupler with the intended tool where practical.
  • Verify safety interlocks, display warnings, service access and cold-start behaviour.

Hours, condition and ownership cost

Hours are context, not a condition grade. Duty cycle, idle time, maintenance evidence, wear-system measurements, structural repairs and installed technology should be evaluated together.

Cost drivers to model

  • Track-system wear, compact access repairs and attachment utilization shape hourly cost.
  • Separate idle hours from productive duty and review daily greasing and service evidence.
  • Include trailer, tow vehicle, loading equipment and attachment changes in mobilization cost.

Attachments and compatibility

  • Confirm pin pickup or coupler interface, tool weight and hydraulic requirements.
  • Buckets, breakers, thumbs, augers and compactors can require different plumbing or controls.
  • Check blade and counterweight configuration when attachment stability matters.

Transport planning

  • Use scale-ready operating weight plus the actual bucket, coupler, blade and fluids—not the rounded machine class.
  • Measure width and height in travel condition and confirm trailer, axle and tow-vehicle limits independently.
