TRANSMISSION
The Kubota GB115 features a gear transmission with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, allowing for fine-tuned speed and torque control, which is advantageous for varied agricultural tasks. The three gears in each range enable efficient power management, enhancing productivity in both light and heavy-duty applications. However, the limitation of having only two ranges may restrict versatility in certain terrain scenarios, making it less ideal for operations requiring frequent gear ratio adjustments.
