Why Kubota’s 3-Year Warranty Adds Value to VMAC Systems

Kubota’s 3-Year Warranty Brings Long-Term Confidence

Kubota industrial engines are covered by a warranty period of three years or 3,000 operating hours, whichever comes first. That warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship and includes both parts and labor when serviced through Kubota’s authorized industrial engine dealer network.

For contractors, fleet managers, and service truck operators, that matters. A three-year engine warranty provides peace of mind that one of the most critical components in the system is backed by a manufacturer known for reliability and long-term durability.

Kubota’s warranty network also spans the United States, Canada, Mexico, and South America, making it easier for operators with distributed fleets or cross-border work to access support when they need it.

VMAC and Kubota Create a Strong Warranty Combination

VMAC’s Kubota-powered systems combine Kubota’s three-year engine coverage with VMAC’s own warranty protection on the air compressor and system components.

For example, VMAC’s 6-in-1 Multifunction Power System with the Kubota D902 diesel engine includes:

• Kubota’s 3-year engine warranty

• VMAC’s two-year coverage on major system components

• VMAC’s Lifetime Warranty (Limited) on the air end

That layered approach is valuable because customers are receiving protection on both the engine and the air compressor system itself.

Kubota handles the engine warranty through its dealer network, while VMAC supports the compressor, controls, and major system components. This means customers can count on dedicated expertise from both manufacturers rather than relying on a single general-purpose provider.

The Kubota D902 and VMAC Multifunction Are Built for Demanding Work

VMAC uses the Kubota D902 in products such as the VMAC 6-in-1 Multifunction Power System.

The Kubota D902 is a Tier 4 Final, three-cylinder, naturally aspirated diesel engine designed for reliability and performance in demanding environments. In VMAC’s 6-in-1 system, it powers a 45 CFM rotary screw air compressor with 100% duty cycle, while also supporting generator, welder, battery boost/charge, PTO, and hydraulic capabilities in a single compact package.

That combination helps operators reduce equipment clutter, save deck space, lower truck weight, and avoid the hassle of maintaining multiple standalone machines.

More importantly, it means operators can depend on proven Kubota engine performance backed by a three-year warranty while also benefiting from VMAC’s intelligent controls, cold climate protection, and long-term compressor durability.

Stahl Peterbilt’s mission statement is to “Consistently provide high quality customer service in all areas of our business”, and Stahl Peterbilt lives this mission every day. As Stahl started growing their fleet over the years, from 4 trucks in 2015 to 9 trucks in 2018, they took advantage of the opportunity to review the equipment their technicians were using. Reviewing the truck-mounted air compressors, they found that their gas-powered compressors had several problems. “It was a nightmare. The air compressors took up too much space, they wouldn’t start in cold weather, they had no power, no capacity, they were completely substandard,” explains Randy Kerr, Service Operations Manager.

“And because our trucks are diesel, using gas-powered air compressors meant we had to use two different types of fuel.” Randy knew it was time for a change, so he contacted Jim Raymond, VMAC Sales Manager, to discuss switching to VMAC. “Jim listened to our concerns, and understood our needs, and suggested we test out the VMAC Multifunction Power System,” says Randy. “We tried it out and loved it.” Read the full story: https://www.vmacair.com/blog/stahl-peterbilt-wins-top-award-with-vmacs-multi-power-system

Why the Warranty Matters

Fleet managers are under constant pressure to reduce downtime, control repair costs, and keep technicians working. Warranty coverage plays a direct role in that.

A three-year Kubota engine warranty can help:

• Reduce unexpected repair costs
  

• Improve long-term fleet budgeting
  

• Minimize downtime through access to Kubota’s service network
  

• Increase confidence in equipment reliability
  

• Support resale value when the system is properly maintained

Kubota’s warranty does require that products are serviced correctly, maintained according to schedule, and repaired through authorized Kubota distributors or dealers. It also excludes damage caused by misuse, improper servicing, non-genuine parts, overheating not caused by manufacturing defects, or lack of maintenance.

That aligns well with VMAC’s own focus on preventative maintenance and proper service intervals. Operators who maintain their systems according to the owner’s manual are in the best position to maximize performance, uptime, reliability, and warranty protection.

A Better Ownership Experience

At the end of the day, VMAC and Kubota are a strong match because both companies are built around the same principles: durability, reliability, and support.

VMAC customers already benefit from compact, intelligent mobile air compressor systems that are engineered for real-world jobsite conditions. Adding Kubota’s proven engine platform and three-year warranty creates even more value for owners who want equipment they can trust for the long haul.

For operators looking at a Kubota-powered VMAC system, the message is simple: you are getting a machine designed to work hard, backed by two manufacturers that stand behind what they build.
