What kind of coupler is this?

[blindwillie]

Hi,

I have just bought a used Kuboto U15-3 mini excavator, and I'm a total newbie to the subject, so I'm probably in for a lot of surprises. Hopefully not too expensive ones

The salesman told me it had a beco coupler, but after googling some, I don't think it looks like that. Can anyone help me identitfy what it is?

All the best,
Asger

That's a bit interesting but can't say I recognize it. Congrats on the machine though!

Doesn’t look like a U.S. machine. What country are you in?

Thanks! and sorry, for the late reply. I hadn't set up notifications correctly.

I wasn't aware they varied by country. I'm in Denmark.

Everything is different in Denmark. Love the sweet rolls and the girls.

Can't help you with your machine. Sorry.

Ha, so do I, so do I

Thanks for the reply!

Good luck! Let us know how things work out.

Oh time flew, and I forgot - but I found the answer
The Danish importer of the machine told me, that this is a local coupler with an even more local modification from some random guy on the island of Funen
I don't know how it ended up on this machine, but it works ok, except that I have to make a cut in the coupler of every bucket I get, to make it fit.
