TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Kubota MX5200 features an 8-speed synchronized shuttle hydrostatic transmission, offering seamless shifting and improved operator control during directional changes, which enhances productivity in various applications. A key advantage is the ability to maintain engine speed while adjusting ground speed, ideal for tasks requiring precision, such as loader work or tillage. However, the complexity of the hydrostatic system may require more maintenance compared to traditional gear transmissions.

Description 8-speed sychronized shuttle hydrostatic

TRANSMISSION 1

The Kubota MX5200 features a synchronized shuttle transmission with 8 forward and reverse gears, enhancing operational efficiency during direction changes. The dry disc clutch offers a reliable engagement, reducing maintenance needs but may require precise operation to avoid premature wear. Ideal for versatile farming tasks, this setup strikes a balance between performance and ease of use, but may challenge operators unfamiliar with synchronized shuttles.

Gears 8 forward and reverse
Clutch dry disc

TRANSMISSION 2

The Kubota MX5200, featuring a hydrostatic transmission, offers seamless speed adjustments without shifting, enhancing operator comfort and control for varied tasks. Its infinite 3-range forward and reverse gear system allows flexibility in maneuverability, making it suitable for both heavy-duty and precision applications in agricultural settings. However, hydrostatic systems can be more complex and may require specialized maintenance compared to traditional gear-driven models.

KUBOTA MX5200 TIRES

The Kubota MX5200 is available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, which affects its traction and maneuverability; the 4WD variant offers superior performance in muddy or uneven terrain. Standard agricultural tires (7.5L-15 front and 14.9-26 rear for 2WD; 9.5-16 front for 4WD) provide adequate grip for various field operations, but may limit speed on hard surfaces due to lower aspect ratios. Operators should evaluate their primary use case—whether it's intensive tillage or transport—to select the appropriate drive configuration for optimized efficiency.
