TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Kubota M8200 features an 8-speed synchronized transmission with a power shuttle, enhancing operational efficiency by allowing smooth directional changes without clutch engagement. This design minimizes operator fatigue and improves productivity in tasks such as field tillage or towing. A potential challenge could be the learning curve for new operators unfamiliar with synchronized gear systems.

KUBOTA M8200 TIRES
The Kubota M8200 tractor offers versatile tire options across different configurations, enabling it to cater to various terrains and applications—2WD and 4WD configurations provide flexibility for agricultural, turf, and industrial use. The agricultural tires (7.50-18 front and 12.4-24/18.4-30 rear) enhance traction and soil cultivation efficiency, while turf tires minimize ground disturbance, making it suitable for lawn care. However, when opting for industrial tires (27x8.50-15 front and 15-19.5 rear), consider potential challenges in maneuverability on softer ground due to increased load distribution.
