Wheelbase:
Varies by configuration, typically around 1.5-1.7 meters (indicative).
Operating Weight:
Approximately 700-900 kg without attachments (indicative).
Ground Clearance:
Varies by tire size and configuration, typically 0.3-0.4 meters (indicative).
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 100-200 operating hours or annually, whichever comes first (refer to manual for precise intervals and conditions).
Air Filter Service:
Inspect and clean at frequent intervals, replace as needed, typically based on operating hours or visible restriction.
Transmission Fluid Change:
Typically every 500-1000 operating hours or biennially for HST systems (consult manual for exact intervals and fluid type).
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
Kubota Super UDT or equivalent approved hydraulic/transmission fluid. Capacity varies by model and configuration.
Engine Coolant:
50% mixture of heavy-duty antifreeze (ethylene glycol based) and distilled water.
Common Wear Items:
Piston rings, valve guides, clutch plates (in manual transmissions), hydraulic pump seals, starter motor brushes, and coolant hoses.
Troubleshooting Areas:
Loss of hydraulic power, overheating, engine misfires, starting difficulties, transmission engagement issues, and PTO engagement problems.
