Kubota L1-255

Last Updated: June 2024

Overview

The Kubota L1-255 is a compact utility tractor that excelled in various agricultural tasks from 1988 until 1991. Its robust Kubota D1462 diesel engine, rated at 24.7 horsepower, was coupled with liquid cooling to efficiently manage heat during operation. Designed to cater to a range of activities, the tractor features a shuttle/Glideshift transmission that offers 16 speeds in both forward and reverse directions. With 2WD, turf-ready agricultural tires, and a rear type I hitch, the L1-255 was built for versatile functionality. Its dry disc clutch contributes to smooth operation, and electric starting ensures simplicity in ignition. While dimensions and aspects of weight are well-established, details of the hydraulic system, PTO, and some other technical specifications require further research for precision.
