The Kubota M135GX is a row-crop tractor produced between 2012 and 2022 as part of the M126GX series. It is a 135-horsepower machine designed for versatile agricultural operations, featuring a turbocharged diesel powertrain and a focus on operator comfort.

Engine and Powertrain

The tractor is powered by the Kubota V6108-TI-CRS, a 6.1-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine. It utilizes a common rail direct injection system and meets Interim Tier IV emission standards through an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system and a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The engine operates at a rated speed of 2200 RPM.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The M135GX features the Intelli-Shift transmission, providing 24 forward and 24 reverse gears through an eight-speed power shift system across three ranges, with an optional 32-speed creeper version available. It incorporates an electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch and a power shuttle for seamless direction changes. Traction is managed by a four-wheel-drive system with electro-hydraulic differential locks on both the front and rear axles.

Hydraulics and PTO

The hydraulic system includes a pump flow capacity of 18.7 gpm (70.8 lpm), with a dedicated 16 gpm (60.6 lpm) flow for steering. It supports between two and four hydraulic valves. The rear PTO is independent and offers dual speeds of 540 and 1000 RPM, utilizing a 1.375-inch shaft.

Hitch and Lift Capacity

The tractor is equipped with a Category II rear three-point hitch featuring electronic lower-link draft control and telescopic lower link ends. The rear lift capacity at 24 inches behind the hitch point is 6834 lbs (3099 kg), with an optional upgrade available to 9447 lbs (4285 kg).
