Purpose-Built, Not Adapted — Kawasaki's Dedicated Backhoe Loader Line

Refurbished Kawasaki Backhoe Loader Hydraulic Pumps

Unlike some suppliers who repurpose an excavator pump for backhoe loader use, Kawasaki engineers a dedicated K3VLS series pump specifically for load-sensing backhoe loader circuits — paired with a K8V pump and M7V motor where the machine uses hydrostatic transmission for travel. PumpGrid refurbishes both, tested to Kawasaki spec before dispatch.

K3VLS Load-Sensing Pump K8V Hydrostatic Travel Pump 3-Month Warranty Pan India Supply

Kawasaki treats backhoe loaders as a distinct application, not an afterthought of its excavator line. The K3VLS series was developed specifically for machines running a load-sensing control system, working alongside the KLSV control valve and PV48 pilot control valve for smooth, precise loader-and-backhoe operation. For backhoe loaders with hydrostatic transmission travel, Kawasaki's K8V pump and matched M7V motor handle drive power separately from the working hydraulics.

Not every backhoe loader uses hydrostatic travel — many use a mechanical transmission instead, in which case only the K3VLS working pump applies. WhatsApp your machine model and we'll confirm which system(s) you have.

What Our K3VLS / K8V Refurbishment Covers

K3VLS Working Pump

Full disassembly. Piston, slipper and swashplate wear measured against Kawasaki tolerance. Load-sensing compensator and KLSV valve interface tested for accurate response across the full flow range. Shaft seal and all O-rings replaced as standard.

K8V Travel Pump & M7V Motor

For machines with hydrostatic transmission, the closed-circuit K8V pump and its matched M7V motor are inspected and refurbished as a pair — mismatched wear between pump and motor is a common cause of uneven travel performance.

Bench Testing

Every unit is bench tested under load — pressure, flow, and control response recorded on a written test report before the pump ships.

Why Contractors Choose Refurbished Kawasaki Pumps

Faster Than Waiting on a Specialised Import

The K3VLS and K8V lines aren't stocked as widely in India as excavator-class Kawasaki pumps. PumpGrid keeps refurbished units ready to dispatch in 2-3 working days.

Significant Savings vs New Import Pricing

A refurbished K3VLS or K8V unit typically saves 40-60% versus sourcing a new pump through the specialised import channel.

Test Report for Fleet Records

Our written pressure and flow test report gives fleet managers the documentation needed for maintenance and compliance records.

Warranty Confirmed in Writing

3-month minimum warranty, with replacement rather than repair if a refurbishment defect appears within that period.

Is Your Kawasaki-Equipped Backhoe Loader Showing These Signs?

Loader or backhoe losing lifting power
Travel pulling to one side (hydrostatic models)
Whining noise from either pump at idle
Sluggish joystick response under combined load
Oil leak from either pump housing
Hydraulic oil overheating faster than usual

If travel and working functions are affected differently, that helps pinpoint which pump needs attention — WhatsApp us the details.

FAQs

How do I know if my backhoe loader has hydrostatic travel (K8V) or mechanical transmission?
Hydrostatic-transmission machines typically have a single travel lever or pedal controlling both direction and speed smoothly, without distinct gear shifts. Mechanical transmission machines have a conventional gear lever. If you're unsure, WhatsApp your machine model and we'll confirm from the spec sheet.
Is the K3VLS the same pump used in Kawasaki-equipped excavators?
No. The K3VLS is a dedicated load-sensing pump line developed specifically for backhoe loaders and similar equipment, distinct from the K3V series used in excavators. They share the same underlying axial piston technology but are not interchangeable — always confirm the exact series before ordering.
Should I replace the K8V pump and M7V motor together, or just the failed one?
If one has been compensating for the other's wear over time, replacing both as a matched pair usually gives more balanced, predictable performance. If the fault is clearly isolated and recent (e.g. sudden noise or leak with otherwise normal operation), replacing just the failed component can be reasonable. We can advise based on your symptoms and machine hours.
