    Common questions

    How much does the Kubota SVL97-2 weigh?

    Operating weight: 11,552 lb (5,240 kg). Buckets, attachments and options add weight, so check the serial plate.

    How big is the Kubota SVL97-2?

    Length with bucket 12 ft 11 in, width 6 ft 8 in, height to top of cab 6 ft 11 in.

    What trailer do I need to haul a Kubota SVL97-2?

    One with a payload rating above 11,552 lb plus the weight of any buckets and attachments. At 6 ft 11 in tall it stays under 13 ft 6 in on a typical 60 in flatbed deck.

    Do I need a CDL to haul a Kubota SVL97-2?

    For commercial hauling, almost certainly: a trailer rated over 10,000 lb towed by a truck whose GVWR brings the combined rating to 26,001 lb or more requires a Class A CDL (49 CFR 383.91). A 11,552 lb machine needs a trailer rated well over 10,000 lb.
