KUBOTA L1-215 ENGINE
The Kubota L1-215 tractor features a compact 1.3L 3-cylinder diesel engine, offering a balance between power and efficiency for small to medium-sized agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 7.7 gallons (29.1L), it allows for extended operational time without frequent refueling, making it suitable for fieldwork and transporting materials. However, its smaller engine size may limit power for more demanding applications, so consider usage scenarios accordingly, such as light tilling or mowing rather than heavy-duty plowing.

TRANSMISSION
The Kubota L1-215 features a shuttle transmission with 16 forward and reverse gears, allowing for enhanced control over speed and torque in various field conditions. The inclusion of a dry disc clutch improves reliability and reduces maintenance compared to wet clutches, though it may require more precise operation in terms of engagement. Ideal for tasks requiring frequent directional changes, such as tilling or loading, the gear range offers versatility for both light-duty and moderately heavy applications.

MECHANICAL
The Kubota L1-215 tractor features a robust 4WD option, enhancing traction and stability on uneven terrain, which is crucial for agricultural applications. Its wet disc brakes provide superior stopping power and durability, reducing maintenance frequency compared to dry brakes. However, the open operator station may expose the operator to environmental conditions, potentially impacting comfort during prolonged use.

KUBOTA L1-215 TIRES
The Kubota L1-215 tractor features two tire configurations depending on the 2WD or 4WD system, affecting traction and stability. The 2WD variant utilizes narrower front tires (4.00-15), which may limit traction in wet conditions, while the 4WD variant with wider front tires (6-14) enhances grip and maneuverability on uneven terrain. Choosing between these configurations should be based on intended use—2WD for light agricultural tasks and 4WD for more demanding applications like heavy soil cultivation or hilly landscapes.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Kubota L1-215 features a compact wheelbase of 59.1 inches, enhancing maneuverability in tight agricultural spaces. Weighing between 2050 to 2161 pounds, it offers stability for various tasks, albeit limiting portability for transport without additional equipment. The tire specifications, with smaller front tires (4.00-15) and larger rear tires (9.5-22), optimize traction and load distribution, making it well-suited for plowing and tilling but potentially challenging on soft, uneven terrain.
