I do most of the installs dealing with our smallest DAH-080C head. Most of the units have been Kubota kx080's. They are well built and good performing machine's.
A few high points.
1. They have twin hydraulic circuits out the boom. One low flow and one high flow. So what this means is you can run the head with the high flow circuit and the return line of the low flow as the case drain. Add a remote filter on the case drain line and your done.
2. Next they put out 26 gpm @3500-3600psi which is pretty good.
3. You can mulch most of the day on a tank of fuel.
4. Reach is good. I would add a counter weight just to make it as stable as possible. It is fine stock but better countered.
5. The Tak 175 is right there with the Kubota. The one thing I did like about the Tak is it has a conventional tail which is alittle better balanced. Would be equal to the Kubota with a additional weight. We have checked and Kubota does offer an additional counterweight.
6. I guess the deal breaker would be availabilty in your area and pricing for each.
7. One other thing Kubota offers a 36" bucket as an option, that is stout!
Hope this helped.
