Kubota GB13 Hitch and Rear Lift Notes

Rear lift capacity note For implement matching, the Kubota GB13 should be judged from the 1,100 lb (499 kg) lift at 24 inches behind the link ends figure. That gives a better real-world read than horsepower alone
24-inch lift note A 24-inch rating matters because weight gets harder to lift as it moves farther behind the tractor
Hitch category note For the Kubota GB13, Category 1 is the important compatibility spec. Lift capacity tells you what it can raise; category tells you what fits
Hydraulic flow note The Kubota GB13’s captured hydraulic pump flow is 6.6 gpm (25 L/min). Lift capacity is still the main hitch number, but pump flow helps describe hydraulic capability
Operating weight note The Kubota GB13 operating weight is listed as 1,157 lb (525 kg). Tractor weight matters because a machine can sometimes lift more than it should comfortably carry on rough ground
Rear implement matching The Kubota GB13 hitch spec is useful because it helps judge whether attachments like box blade, small rotary cutter, tiller, ballast box, and rear blade are in the right size range
