TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Kubota L2800 features a hydrostatic transmission, providing seamless speed control and making it user-friendly, especially in applications requiring precision like loader work or garden tilling. The 8-speed option offers versatile gear selection for various tasks, ensuring efficient operation on diverse terrains. However, be aware that hydrostatic systems can lead to higher fuel consumption compared to traditional gear transmissions under heavy loads.
| Description | hydrostatic/8-speed |
TRANSMISSION 1
The Kubota L2800's hydrostatic transmission offers seamless speed control, making it ideal for delicate operations like grading or tilling. Its infinite (3-range) forward and reverse gears enhance versatility for various tasks but may limit maximum speed in heavy transport scenarios. Operators should anticipate a smooth driving experience with minimized operator fatigue, though maintenance of the hydrostatic system can be more complex.
