TRANSMISSION

The Kubota GB135 features a gear transmission with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, offering flexibility for various applications. Its three-gear system in two ranges allows for optimal torque management and efficiency, making it suitable for diverse tasks such as plowing or hauling. However, operators must be adept at gear changes to maximize performance, which can be a challenge in time-sensitive or intricate operations.
