Diesel particulate filters (DPFs) play a crucial role in reducing emissions and keeping air clean. Over time, ash buildup in the filter can restrict exhaust gas flow and increase back pressure, leading to potential downtime. To prevent this, Kubota offers a comprehensive DPF Cleaning Program designed to minimize downtime and maximize the efficiency of your Kubota engine. Let’s dive in!
