Viewer Compatibility:
Adobe Acrobat Reader (free download available)
Digital Features:
Zoomable, printable, savable, bookmarked, fully text searchable.
Print Capability:
Print specific pages or sections as needed.
Binding:
Not applicable (digital download)
Paper Type:
Not applicable (digital download)
Engine Type:
Diesel (Specific engine model not detailed in provided information, but expected to be a robust multi-cylinder diesel)
Engine Details:
Comprehensive breakdowns of engine parts including crankcase, fuel system, and cooling system components.
Horsepower Range:
Likely in the 40-50 HP range based on model number 'M4500'.
Fuel System Coverage:
Fuel tank, fuel lines, fuel filter, injection pump, injectors, accelerator rod.
Transmission Type:
Likely a multi-speed manual transmission with a synchronized gear shifting mechanism, common for tractors of this era and series. 'DT' often implies a dual-traction or four-wheel drive system integrated with the transmission.
Optional Features:
Specific optional transmission configurations are not detailed, but PTO (Power Take-Off) functionality is a standard feature on agricultural tractors.
Transmission Parts Coverage:
Covers transmission gears, clutch assembly, PTO shaft, and related control mechanisms.
Service Information Availability:
While this is a parts manual, the detailed breakdown of components directly supports maintenance tasks by identifying correct replacement parts for scheduled service.
Fluid Identification:
The manual will list part numbers for filters (e.g., oil filter, fuel filter, hydraulic filter) which are crucial for maintenance. Specific fluid types (e.g., engine oil viscosity, hydraulic fluid type) would typically be found in a separate service or owner's manual but are inferable from filter part numbers and system designs.
Repair Support:
By providing clear illustrations and part numbers, this manual is invaluable for diagnosing and rectifying common wear-and-tear issues on tractors of this age and type, such as clutch wear, hydraulic leaks, and powertrain component fatigue.
Heritage Focus:
Long history of manufacturing agricultural machinery in Japan.
M Series Introduction:
Kubota's M-Series represents their line of larger, more powerful utility and agricultural tractors, building upon their success in compact tractor markets.
Manufacturing Locations Global:
Japan (primary), with manufacturing facilities established in the US (Gainesville, GA) for implements and later for tractor configuration.
Us Manufacturing Timeline:
Kubota Manufacturing of America opened in Gainesville, GA in 1988. Production facility later transferred to Kubota Industrial Equipment near Jefferson, GA in 2006.
