Parts Compatible with the Kubota Z482 Industrial Diesel Engine

The Z482 is the smallest displacement engine in Kubota's Super Mini Series industrial diesel family, a naturally aspirated 0.48 liter 2-cylinder engine that produces around 11 horsepower at 3600 rpm. It is one of the most widely deployed compact industrial diesel engines in the world, powering small generators, portable compressors, refrigeration units, aerial scissor lifts, and light-duty municipal equipment. Production began in the early 1980s and continues today across multiple emissions tiers, with variants spanning the early E2B Tier 2, the E3B Tier 3, and the E4B Tier 4 Final compliance levels.

The Z482 engine family includes a long list of OEM-specific spec variants reflecting the wide range of equipment manufacturers it powers. The Z482-E4B-JLG variant is built for JLG scissor lift and boom lift applications, the Z482-E4B-WDDE and Z482-E4B-DGDE variants are for Wacker Neuson light tower applications, and the Z482-E4BG-KEA variant covers Kohler generator packages. Service parts cross between most variants because the bare engine internals (crankshaft, pistons, valvetrain, fuel pump) are shared across the family.

Common Replacement Parts for the Kubota Z482

Engine service uses Engine Oil Filter HH150-32430 (and the alternate W21ESO1500 / W21ES01500 aftermarket reference) as the primary spin-on lube filter for the Z482. Fuel system service uses In-Line Fuel Filter 1258143011 and Fuel Filter 12581-43012 as the primary fuel filters across the Z482 family.

Internal engine service for top-end work uses Gear Ring 16871-63820 (the flywheel ring gear that wears with starter engagement over high-cycle generator and lift applications), Glow Plug 1G679-65512 (cold start service across the E3B and E4B variants), and Guide Oil Gauge 17456-36420. Small electrical service items including Key 37410-55150, Oil Pressure Switch 15841-39010, and Oil Gauge Plug 1G513-36550 cover routine starter and instrumentation service. Many Z482 service parts cross to the larger Z602 (0.6 liter 2-cylinder sibling) and to the smallest 3-cylinder D722 because Kubota engineered the Super Mini Series on a shared parts platform with displacement as the primary scale variable.
