TRANSMISSION

The Kubota L1-245 features a shuttle transmission with 16 forward and reverse gears, providing versatility for various field operations and maneuverability in tight spaces. The dry disc clutch offers a reliable engagement mechanism but may require more frequent replacements compared to wet clutches in high-load scenarios. Operators should consider the tractor's intended use; optimal for small to medium-scale farming tasks, it may face challenges in heavy-duty applications due to its clutch design.
