The Kubota STV36 is a compact utility tractor produced between 2006 and 2014, designed for versatile applications in agriculture, landscaping, and property maintenance. It is part of a broader series of compact tractors engineered for maneuverability and consistent performance.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Kubota D1703M, a 1.6-liter, 3-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine. It generates a gross power output of 35.9 hp (26.8 kW) and a net rated power of 34.2 hp (25.5 kW) at a rated speed of 2700 RPM. The engine configuration provides stable torque for varying load demands.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The STV36 utilizes a hydrostatic transmission, offering infinite forward and reverse speeds across three distinct ranges. This allows for precise speed control without the need for traditional clutching. The tractor features four-wheel drive (4WD) as standard, supplemented by a mechanical rear differential lock to enhance traction in difficult terrain. Steering is facilitated by a power-assisted system.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system operates at a pressure of 2461 psi (169.7 bar) with a pump flow rate of 6.1 gpm (23.1 lpm). It is equipped with a Category I rear hitch featuring position control, capable of lifting up to 2535 lbs (1149 kg) at the ends. The tractor includes an independent rear PTO (540 RPM) and a mid-PTO (2500 RPM) to support a wide array of implements.
Dimensions and Chassis
The unit has a wheelbase of 63.4 inches (161 cm) and a ground clearance of 9.3 inches (23 cm). Its total length is 105.5 inches (267 cm). The tractor is available with a two-post ROPS or an optional factory cab. Weights vary by configuration, with the ROPS model weighing 2150 lbs (975 kg) and the cab model 2502 lbs (1134 kg).
Conclusion
The Kubota STV36 is a reliable compact utility machine suitable for operations requiring a balance of power and agility. Its combination of a hydrostatic transmission, independent PTO, and significant lift capacity makes it well-suited for diverse tasks ranging from mowing and light field work to material handling.
