Engine
Kubota’s reputation for making exceptional engines has never been more evident than in the Grand L40. Kubota’s Three Vortex Combustion System (E-TVCS) allows for increased airflow into the combustion chamber, where it mixes quickly and evenly with fuel from the fuel injection nozzle to deliver exceptional power and efficiency. This resourceful system provides the user with a sustained higher torque rise, under heavy loads and at lower speeds, for optimum performance. The L40 series utilizes 3 cylinder 1.8l engines on the L3540, 4 cylinder 2.2l engines on L4240 and 4 cylinder 2.4l engines on the flagship L5740 models.
Transmission
Tackle any task with ease and efficiency. With startling precision, HST Plus’s automated control of both the HST pump and drive motor gives you optimal performance, regardless of the task, working conditions, or operator expertise. This technology incorporates the popular light and smooth pedal feel of Kubota’s traditional HST feather step control to provide the Grand L40 with a comfortable, easy-to-operate, and high-performance HST. Kubota’s HST Plus includes a hydraulic servo mechanism that decreases the amount of pressure required to depress the HST pedal. A popular and proven feature on previous Kubota models, this mechanism creates a more responsive pedal, which in turn delivers smoother handling and more control, whatever the load size. In addition, the system helps to reduce vibration, shock, noise and fatigue to provide a gentler ride and excellent performance.
The Driver's Seat
Deluxe high back seat provides soft arm rests, wide seating, firm, shock-absorbing springs, a retractable seat belt and a weight-sensitive design that adjusts to your own posture. Seat swivels 12 degrees in each direction to better assist the operator when using rear implements. Kubota’s state-of-the art diagnostic Intelli-Panel keeps you well informed with easy-to-read indicators, displays and sensor messages so you always know exactly how your tractor is functioning. The Grand L40’s fender and wide step deck features a larger, more comfortable step-through area. Responsive hydrostatic power steering makes every job easier. Straight runs and tight turns alike are taken smoothly, while steering remains easy and worry free when a heavy load is applied or the front loader is used.
Hydraulics & PTO
The Grand L40’s state-of-the-art PTO and hydraulic systems are engineered to deliver power and reliable performance. Painstakingly designed to give you the utmost control and maximum versatility, the Grand L40 ensures smooth and effective operation. Kubota has designed an integral Front Loader Valve as part of the tractor. With this valve, you can quickly and easily attach the front loader and other front-mounted implements. The valve promotes efficient, clutter-free operation and matches the sleek styling of the tractor. If you don’t require a front loader or other front-mounted implements, an optional Diverter Kit is available to allow the loader valves to function as rear remotes. The Grand L40’s 2-tandem large hydraulic cylinder delivers an impressive 3-Point Hitch lift capacity of up to 1750kg at ball ends. The Grand L40 can include three Remote Hydraulic Control Valves for a greater selection of hydraulically powered implements. For operators, this versatile system translates into a convenient and cost-efficient prime mover.
Front End Loader
Designed to match the performance of the Grand L40 Series, Kubota front loaders ensure precise operation and improved productivity. The easy motion of the single lever controls all front end loader operations, also allowing simultaneous operation of the boom and bucket. Easy attaching and detaching the loader to the tractor is part of the design, saving valuable time. The mounting pins and hose couplers are removed without tools.
Backhoe
BH77 Backhoe is performance-matched with the L3540 to deliver more power and greater capacity. With a full-flat deck, the backhoe delivers optimal legroom for maximum operator comfort. BH77’s quick attach/ detach mounting system makes attaching and detaching the backhoe a snap so you can quickly move on to your next job.
