Kubota

The Kubota Company manufactures tractor and heavy equipment for a variety of uses including residential lawn care, landscaping, agricultural, and industrial construction and excavation. The company was founded originally in 1890 in Osaka, Japan dealing with foundry and ironwork including pipes, valves, pumps, and cast metal, before later moving into tractor and heavy machine production. Their products include lawn mowers, tractors, utility vehicles, backhoes, excavators, harvesters, and their own line of gas and diesel engines.

Kubota tractors have a multitude of uses depending on what accessories they are affixed with. There are plows, backhoes, carts, buckets, spreaders, snow blowers, and a host of other attachments that give true versatility to the task at hand. Here are a few of the models of Kubota machines that are available.

• BX1880/BX2380/BX2680 - This series of Kubota tractors feature low profile Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS). They have tilt steering, adjustable seat, ergonomically set switches and levers, and an optionally heated cab cover all to increase the comfort of the operator. Kubota has implemented a four-point universal hitch system for these tractors that lets customers mount whichever piece of equipment they may need without having to make adjustments in mounting hardware. The BX series machine comes with a liquid-cooled 3-cylinder diesel engine ranging from 18 HP to 23 HP, a Hydrostatic Transmission high-low 2 speed with reverse, 4WD, and wet disc brakes.
