Introduction
Kubota M7-173 Utility Tractor
Produced between 2020 and 2022 in Bierne, France, the Kubota M7-173 is a four-wheel-drive utility tractor designed for intensive agricultural operations. As part of the M7 series, this model provides high-capacity performance and modular transmission configurations to suit various field applications.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Kubota V6108, a 6.1-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine. It delivers a rated power of 170 hp (126.8 kW) at 1900 RPM, with a maximum gross power of 175 hp (130.5 kW). The engine produces 524.4 lb-ft (711.1 Nm) of torque at 1500 RPM, providing consistent lugging ability for heavy-duty tasks.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Operators can choose between two transmission systems: a 30-speed six-speed power shift transmission with a power shuttle, or an infinitely-variable transmission (IVT). Both options utilize an electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch to manage power delivery to the four-wheel-drive system.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system is available in open-center or closed-center load-sensing configurations, with pump flows reaching up to 29.1 gpm (110.1 lpm). It supports between 3 and 6 valves. The tractor features independent rear PTO (540/1000 RPM) and an optional independent front PTO, allowing for the simultaneous use of front and rear implements.
Dimensions and Capacity
The M7-173 features a category III rear hitch with a lift capacity of 20,723 lbs (9,399 kg) at the ends, complemented by a 7,717 lbs (3,500 kg) front lift capacity. With a wheelbase of 107.1 inches and a shipping weight of 16,204 lbs, the machine offers a stable platform for heavy draft work.
Conclusion
The Kubota M7-173 is engineered for professional agricultural environments requiring a balance of high engine torque, versatile hydraulic options, and significant lift capacities. Its robust build and operator-focused cabin make it well-suited for both primary tillage and heavy transport operations.
