TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Kubota L2250 features an 8-speed mechanical shuttle transmission, facilitating quick directional changes from forward to reverse, enhancing operational efficiency in tight spaces. The partially synchronized gears allow smoother shifts, particularly beneficial in varied terrain where consistent power transfer is required. However, operators may need to adapt to the mechanical nature of the shuttle, which could slow down operations for those accustomed to fully synchronized systems.

TRANSMISSION 1
The Kubota L2250 tractor features an 8 forward and 7 reverse gear system with a mechanical shuttle, offering flexibility in various field conditions but lacking a fourth gear in high range may limit speed options for certain tasks. The 32.8qt oil capacity ensures adequate lubrication and cooling for extended use, but be mindful of the maintenance frequency to optimize performance. This design is ideal for operations requiring precise control in lower ranges, such as tilling or planting.
