So my latest little passion is the Kubota Tractors you see every time there is some excavating job going on. These machines are beautiful and we were turned on to them when we had our back yard landscaped. Below is some info on these really cool tractors from Kubota.
More Power than Ever Before
Kubota’s higher horsepower M-Series tractors feature added power, more torque and an electronic common rail fuel system for more power, less noise and reduced emissions. The M100X and M110X are powered by a Kubota V3800 engine while on the larger side of the series, the M126X and the M135X feature a new V6108 four-cylinder, high torque engine with a large displacement of 6.1 liters (374 cubic inches). At 118 PTO horsepower, the M135X muscles its way into the larger 110-120 horsepower group of agriculture tractors. The 16F/16R Intelli-Shift transmission features an eight-speed dual-range powershift for 16 gears in forward and reverse, hydraulic shuttle and wet main clutch are standard.
Designed for Optimal Performance
Sleek new design elements add aesthetics and functionality. The new rounded hood and grill design improve operator’s range of vision while the quieter cab keeps interior sound levels down to approximately 72 dBA on M126/135X models and about 73 dBA on the M100X/M110X models. The exhaust pipe exits the hood at the bottom to increase visibility of the front right wheel; it is also tethered to the cab post to restrict vibrations and increase durability.
Other standard design elements includes wide-front tread that provides an overall 70-74 inch tread spacing, making straddling wide windrows in baler applications easier. A float link has been added to the three-point hitch, which provides lateral floatation for the use of wide implements. To provide for a smooth, comfortable ride on the M135X, especially when equipped with a loader, Kubota offers optional front axle hydraulic suspension with a toggle switch to turn the system on-and-off. These features, combined with the standard radial tires on each M-Series model, provide excellent traction and a quiet ride.
Higher Horsepower M-Series Works Smarter, Not Harder
Enhancements on the Kubota M-Series deluxe mid-sized tractors help operators work more efficiently. A new dash-instrumentation includes a central command LCD panel that displays engine information, fuel used per hour, travel direction and gear selection. The Kubota - Electronic Management System (K-EMS) is a new, innovative electronic engine control system. K-EMS includes a computerized governor control dial that maintains engine revolutions per minute (RPM) to the operator’s selection, while two memory settings can be set for low- and high-frequently used speeds.
“When working in a field, the new electronic “Work-Kruise” control, part of the K-EMS system, monitors the engine to maintain a constant speed,” said Williams. “In hilly terrain the “Work-Kruise” ties together with the Field Auto-Mode to optimize field travel speeds – the operator does not have to constantly maintain the throttle, which helps increase field productivity.”
A big part of it was the operator who was running the machine. It was really cool how he moved the machine around and worked the dirt.
