KUBOTA KL2450 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Kubota KL2450 features a robust D1503 diesel engine, delivering 23.6 hp with a displacement of 1.5L, ideal for small to medium agricultural tasks. Its compact size (3.27x3.64 inches bore/stroke) supports efficient fuel consumption while providing adequate power for routine operations. However, operating at a maximum of 2700 RPM may limit its performance in heavy-duty scenarios; it's best utilized for tasks like mowing or light tilling.

TRANSMISSION 2
The Kubota KL2450 features a Glideshift transmission with 16 forward and reverse gears, optimized for seamless shifting under load. Its power shift capability enhances operator efficiency by enabling quick transitions between gears without clutch engagement. This design is ideal for applications requiring varied speed and torque, such as plowing or hauling, though it may increase maintenance complexity due to additional hydraulic components.

TRANSMISSION 3
The Kubota KL2450 features a robust transmission with 24 forward and 16 reverse gears, providing exceptional versatility for various agricultural tasks. The hydraulically-shifted gears allow for smooth transitions and precision handling, particularly beneficial in tasks requiring fine adjustments, such as tilling or planting. However, the complexity of the gear system may require more maintenance and operator training, emphasizing the need for skilled personnel in intensive farming scenarios.
| Gears |

| Description |
Twelve hydraulically-shift gears (eight in reverse) in two ranges. Only available on the KL2450 with cab |
TRANSMISSION 4
The Kubota KL2450 features a versatile three-range transmission, offering a total of 30 forward and 20 reverse gears, allowing precise control for various tasks. This extensive gearing enables effective speed modulation depending on the application, whether it's heavy-duty plowing or high-speed transport. However, operating a high number of gears may present a learning curve for operators unfamiliar with multi-range transmissions, which could lead to inefficiencies if not managed properly.
