Introduction
Kubota MX4900 Utility Tractor
The Kubota MX4900 is a utility tractor belonging to the MX series, designed for versatile agricultural and field maintenance operations. Produced from 2025 onwards, this model is engineered to provide reliable performance through a liquid-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Kubota V2403CR-T engine, a 2.4-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel unit. It delivers a net gear power of 47.7 hp and a gross hydro power of 51.8 hp at a rated engine speed of 2700 RPM. The engine uses a dry air cleaner system and is designed for consistent output in various load conditions.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The MX4900 offers two transmission configurations to suit different operational needs: an 8-speed mechanical shuttle transmission or a 3-range hydrostatic transmission for infinite speed control. The machine is equipped with four-wheel drive, mechanical rear differential lock, and power steering to ensure traction and maneuverability.
Hydraulics and PTO
The tractor utilizes an open-center hydraulic system with a pump flow of 9.5 gpm (36.0 lpm) and a dedicated steering flow of 4.9 gpm (18.5 lpm). The rear Power Take-Off (PTO) is independent, operating at 540 RPM, and utilizes a wet disc clutch system for smooth engagement of implements.
Hitch and Dimensions
The rear hitch is a Category II/I type, featuring position control with optional draft control. It provides a lift capacity of 2,310 lbs (1,047 kg) at 24 inches behind the lift point. The tractor has a wheelbase of 74.6 inches and a ground clearance of 15.2 inches, supporting various tire options including agricultural, industrial, and turf configurations.
Conclusion
The Kubota MX4900 is a robust utility tractor suited for a wide range of agricultural and utility applications. Its combination of mechanical or hydrostatic transmission choices and an optional climate-controlled cab makes it adaptable for operators requiring both heavy-duty traction and refined control.
