TRANSMISSION 1
The Kubota GL201 tractor features a robust 16-speed gear system that includes a creeper range for enhanced low-speed operations, ideal for precision tasks like tilling or planting. Its dry disc clutch provides reliable, low-maintenance operation; however, it may require higher foot pressure compared to hydraulic clutches. This gear configuration, combined with the shuttle shift capability, allows for efficient direction changes, making it advantageous for field work and maneuverability in tight spaces.
