Kubota KX71-2 Parts Catalog – 264-Page OEM Exploded Views and Part Numbers

Anyone who’s ordered the wrong oil pan gasket for a Kubota KX71-2 knows the feeling. You wait three days, the part shows up, and it’s the wrong number. That’s because you guessed, or you used an aftermarket parts diagram that swapped the bolt pattern. This is the factory OEM Kubota KX71-2 Parts Catalog – 264 pages of part numbers, exploded views, and weights in kilograms and pounds. Not a reprint. Not a copy. This is the original German-language catalog that Kubota dealerships use. If you’re tearing down a KX71-2 for a rebuild or ordering a single bolt, this document saves you from return shipping and downtime.

Kubota KX71-2 Parts Catalog – 264-Page OEM Reference

Page count matters. A 30-page aftermarket “parts list” skips the hydraulic spool sections, the swing motor internal parts, and the dozen different oil line assemblies. This catalog covers everything from the crankcase (Kurbelgehäuse, page 1) to the cab foam seals (Schaumstoff, later pages). Every part number is prefixed with the Kubota OEM number – 16626-01012 for the crankcase assembly, 16285-01500 for the oil pan. You get the exact bolt, washer, and gasket. The catalog even lists the weight of each component in kgf and lb, so you can verify you’re holding the right piece. If you need the torque spec for that crankcase bolt, you cross-reference this part number with the service manual – but this catalog gives you the foundation.

Engine Bottom End – Crankcase and Oil Pan Sections

Flip to the first section: Kurbelgehäuse (crankcase) and Ölwanne (oil pan). The exploded views are numbered and keyed to a table that includes the Kubota part number, description, quantity, serial number range, and weight. For example, the oil pan assembly (Pos. 010) is part 16285-01500, weighs 1.9 kgf (4.18 lb), and takes 26 bolts (01023-50612). The drain plug (16541-33750) uses a sealing washer (15451-96670). No guesswork. You see the O-ring for the oil filter (04814-00160) and the dipstick (16264-36413) in the same view. When you’re ordering a rebuild kit, you grab every part number from that page. Aftermarket catalogs combine bolts into a single line item – this one gives you the individual bolt part number.

Why 264 Pages?

Because a compact excavator has more than a dozen hydraulic spool sections, a slew of oil lines, and multiple control valve assemblies. This catalog breaks down the control valve into separate spool sections – bucket, boom 1, boom 2, arm, swing, travel LS, travel RS, and a dozen more. Each section gets its own exploded view with a parts table. The KX71-2 uses a complex pilot control system with two separate pilot valve assemblies. The catalog pages for Kontrollrahmen (control frame) list the springs, seals, and plungers individually. If you’re rebuilding the joystick or the travel pedal, you need those part numbers. Twenty-six pages of oil lines alone cover every hose from suction to return to oil cooler. Without this catalog, you’re tracing lines and hoping the dealer can cross-reference.

Hydraulic Spool Sections – Bucket, Boom, and Travel

When a spool sticks or a seal leaks, you don’t want to replace the whole valve bank. This catalog lets you order the specific spool section – Spulensektion (Schaufel) for bucket, Spulensektion (Ausleger 1) for boom, Spulensektion (Fahren RS) for right travel. Each section shows the valve body, the spool itself, the spring, and the O-rings. The hydraulic pump section (Getriebepumpe) is separate, with its own parts breakdown. Even the Umschaltventil Drehen/Schwenken (rotation/swing switching valve) gets its own entry. If you’re chasing a drift in the boom, you can pinpoint the seal part number from the arm cylinder or boom cylinder section – Arm Zylinder und Einzelteile, Ausleger Zylinder und Einzelteile. That level of detail saves you from buying a whole cylinder assembly.

Where to Find the Part Number You Need

Don’t let the German headings intimidate you. The catalog is structured by system: engine, drivetrain, hydraulics, cab, attachments. Each section starts with a reference number (e.g., 01S001 for crankcase). The tables are self-explanatory – part numbers are numeric, descriptions are repeated in English in many online parts lookups. Use the bookmark PDF structure (63 bookmarks mirror the TOC) to jump directly to your section. Need the starter parts? Look under Schwungrad-Anlasser and Anlasser (Einzelteile). Want the battery cables? Kabelbaum (1), (2), (3). The cab section even lists the heater core (Kabine Heizkörper) and windshield wiper motor (Kabine Scheibenwischermotor). For a full machine teardown, this catalog is your master parts list. Pair it with the service manual for torque specs – Kubota V3300-T-E2B-EPS-1 Parts Catalog – 53-Page OEM Parts Breakdown covers the engine if you need a smaller reference, but for the whole KX71-2, this 264-page catalog is the one to have.

Who Needs This Parts Catalog?

Home garage guys rebuilding a KX71-2 from a fire sale. Diesel mechanics who need to order parts for three different excavators at once. Fleet managers who want to keep a stock of common spares. The catalog is also useful for cross-referencing part numbers when upgrading components – the KX71-2 shares hydraulic hardware with other Kubota mini excavators. If you’re working on the undercarriage, the Spannrad (idler), Laufrollen (rollers), and Laufketten (track chains) sections give you the exact part numbers and quantities. The Kubota YU4210, YW0981 Parts Catalog – 274-Page OEM Parts Breakdown covers a different model, so stick with this one for the KX71-2. For a smaller project, the Kubota RCK60-27B Parts Catalog – 27-Page OEM Breakdown is for mower decks. But for this excavator, 264 pages is what you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this catalog in English?

No. It’s the original German-language Kubota parts catalog. The part numbers, weights, and dimensions are universal – you don’t need to read German to use the exploded views and tables.

Can I use this catalog to find hydraulic filter part numbers?

Yes. The Ölfilter is listed under the oil pan section (page 2, part 16241-32114). For hydraulic filters, check the Öltank section and the oil line diagrams. The catalog includes all replacement element numbers.

The markup on aftermarket parts catalogs is ridiculous, and the diagrams are often wrong. This is the same document Kubota shipped to dealers. You get the real part numbers, the real weights, and the real exploded views. Stop burning money on wrong parts.
