ENGINE DETAIL

The Kubota L3300 features a robust D1703 diesel engine with a gross power output of 35.1 hp, making it suitable for light to moderate agricultural tasks. With a torque rating of 77.9 lb-ft at a rated RPM of 2700, it provides good pulling power relative to its size, ideal for operations that require steady power delivery. However, the indirect fuel injection system may lead to slightly less fuel efficiency compared to direct injection engines, especially in demanding scenarios, which is a consideration for long operating hours.

ENGINE OIL

The Kubota L3300's oil capacity of 3.7 quarts (3.5 liters) is relatively low, allowing for more frequent oil changes, which is beneficial for engine longevity. An oil change interval of 100 hours is standard, promoting optimal performance, but may require diligent attention to operational hours to avoid engine wear. Regular maintenance, including timely oil changes, can enhance fuel efficiency and reduce potential repair costs in the long run.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Kubota L3300 features an 8-speed synchronized shuttle, allowing for smooth directional changes and enhanced control during operation. This power shuttle transmission provides seamless shifting between forward and reverse without clutch engagement, improving productivity in tasks like loader work or field operations. However, users should be mindful of maintenance requirements and potential costs associated with the transmission system over time.

TRANSMISSION 1

The Kubota L3300 features a synchronized shuttle transmission with 8 gears (4 in low/high range), enhancing control and versatility for various tasks. The synchronized gear shifting process, while ensuring smooth transitions, requires stopping the tractor to change ranges, which may slow down operation in time-sensitive scenarios. Additionally, the dry disc clutch is robust but requires careful maintenance to prolong service life and ensure optimal performance.

Transmission FST
Type synchronized shuttle
Gears 8 forward and reverse
Clutch dry disc
Oil capacity 41.2qts / 39.0L
Description Four gears (1-4) in two ranges (low/high) with left-hand shuttle lever. Gear shifts (1-4) are synchronized using the foot clutch. Shuttle shifting is also synchronized using the clutch. The tractor must be stopped, and clutch used, to shift ranges.

TRANSMISSION 2

The Kubota L3300 tractor features a Glide Shift Transmission (GST) with a power shuttle, allowing seamless gear changes without engaging the clutch, which enhances efficiency during operations like loader work or transport. Its eight forward and reverse gears provide versatility for various agricultural tasks, although operators must ensure proper shifting technique to avoid transmission strain. With an oil capacity of 41.2 quarts, maintaining optimal lubrication is essential for performance and longevity, especially in demanding conditions.

MECHANICAL

The Kubota L3300 tractor features a robust 4WD option with a hydrostatic power steering system, enhancing maneuverability in varied terrain. Its wet disc brakes provide superior stopping power and durability compared to conventional brake systems, beneficial in demanding applications. The 8-speed synchronized and power shuttle transmissions offer versatility and ease of operation, making it suitable for both agricultural and light construction tasks, though the lack of a full cab may limit comfort in extreme weather conditions.

KUBOTA L3300 TIRES

The Kubota L3300 features standard agricultural tires designed for varied terrain, with 5.00-15 front (2WD) and 12.4-24 rear tire specifications, providing decent traction and stability for field operations. The 4WD option enhances maneuverability and grip in muddy or uneven surfaces with larger 7.2-16 front tires, beneficial for loader work or steep inclines. However, 2WD may struggle in softer soils, limiting performance during adverse weather conditions.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES

The Kubota L3300 tractor, with a weight range of 2610 to 2765 pounds, provides a stable platform for various agricultural tasks, although the 2WD configuration may limit traction in wet or uneven terrain compared to the 4WD option. The wheelbase difference (65.9 inches for 2WD and 67.5 inches for 4WD) can enhance stability; hence, 4WD is preferable for heavier load applications or rugged conditions. Tire specifications (5.00-15 front, 12.4-24 rear for 2WD) should be considered for optimal performance—ensure proper inflation and tread conditions to prevent slippage and maintain efficiency.
