KUBOTA MZ55 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Kubota MZ55 tractor features a robust V3300 diesel engine with a 3.3L displacement, delivering 54.2hp at a rated RPM of 2400, which is ideal for moderate agricultural tasks and utility work. Its 4-cylinder configuration offers a balance of power and fuel efficiency, but the relatively high RPM may lead to increased wear if operated continuously at peak loads. This tractor is suitable for environments requiring reliable performance over extended periods, but operators should monitor heating to prevent cooling system strain.

KUBOTA MZ55 TIRES
The Kubota MZ55 tractor is equipped with standard agricultural tires, which provide excellent traction and stability in field conditions. The front tire size (8.3-20) is optimal for maneuverability, while the larger rear tires (12.4-32) enhance soil compaction resistance and towing capacity. However, operators should consider potential challenges in narrow row-crop applications due to the wider rear footprint.
