TRANSMISSION 1
The Kubota M1-75 features a 12-speed transmission offering six forward and reverse gears, enhancing versatility for various tasks such as plowing and hauling. The two-range shuttle transmission allows for quick shifting without stopping, improving operational efficiency, particularly in tight workspaces or during field operations. However, operators should be mindful of potential complexity in gear selection, which may require increased familiarity for optimal performance.
| Gears | 12 forward and reverse |
| Description | Six gears in two ranges with shuttle. |
TRANSMISSION 2
The Kubota M1-75 tractor features a creeper transmission with 18 forward and reverse gears, providing exceptional control for precision tasks such as tilling or planting in tight conditions. The extensive gear range enhances versatility, allowing for optimal speed adjustments depending on terrain and application requirements. However, the complexity of the transmission may require more frequent maintenance, and operators must be trained to effectively utilize the wide gear selection for best performance.
