Part of the Kubota Repair Manuals.
This 739-page Kubota KX057-4, U55 service manual PDF (factory number RY911-20510) covers the KX057-4 and U55-4 excavators. The hydraulic circuit diagram maps the pump, control valve, swivel motor and travel motor circuits, and the hose routing drawings show where each line runs out to the boom, arm and blade cylinders. Wiring circuits, meter panel troubleshooting and pilot valve rebuilds for control, travel, swing and blade follow, plus device performance measurement so you confirm the numbers before handing the machine over. Spin the return filter on to 68.6 to 78.4 N·m; a 1/2 hose union nut takes 58.8 to 63.7 N·m. Chapter bookmarks and a searchable text layer land you on the travel motor or refrigerant section in seconds.
