    Kubota is launching three new compact tractors in its L60LE Series, which began last year with the introduction of the L3560HSTC-LE.

    “Since then, we found that many of our customers were looking for tractors that would provide the level of quality, comfort, and entry-level affordability the L3560HSTC-LE offered, but needed either a little bit more horsepower or in a ROPS version,” says Kubota Product Manager Kelcey Richardson.

    What's New

    The 37- to 42-horsepower L60LE series now features cab and ROPS versions of the L3560LE and the new, larger-framed L4060LE. The wide, well-appointed Grand L cab comes standard with heating and air conditioning. The new models will be available this November.

    “The L60LE Series will exceed expectations in terms of providing so many premium features found on our Grand L60 series which maximize both performance and comfort, but without breaking the bank,” Richardson says. “Perfect for property maintenance, hobby farms, equestrian facilities, or landscaping, to name a few, this new series really is a steal for anyone who wants the best bang for their buck in terms of both premium features and affordability.”

    Endless Possibilities

    The diesel-powered L60LE tractors use an electronic HST Plus transmission. The hydrostatic unit’s Stall Guard and Auto Throttle Advance features help to maintain productivity regardless of the experience level of the operator, Kubota says.

    The L60LE units have a three-point hitch with 2,646 to 2,760 pounds (1,200 to 1,250 kilograms) of lift capacity. They can use suitable attachments from Land Pride, and there’s a mid-PTO option for snow removal and other implements. Front loader options offer up to 1,715 lbs (778 kg) of lift capacity and up to 105 inches (2.7 meters) of lift height at the pivot pin. Finally, backhoe options for the series feature a quick-mount system, a full-flat deck, and plenty of legroom for the operator.

    Options for the L60LE tractors include front weights, rear hydraulic remote valves, an air ride seat, ROPs canopies, and more. Tire options include industrial loader, agricultural, and turf-style treads and sizes.
