Kubota M5400 3-Point Hitch FAQ
How much can the Kubota M5400 rear 3-point hitch lift?
The main rear-lift number captured for the Kubota M5400 is 3,307 lb (1,500 kg). Use that as the first-pass number for rear implements, not as a front-loader rating.
Why does the 24-inch rear lift spec matter?
The 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) rating matters because mounted implements put weight behind the lift arms. That extra distance makes the tractor work harder than a close-in hitch-end test.

The Kubota M5400’s useful lift reference is 3,307 lb (1,500 kg). It may suit rotary cutter, medium tiller, grader blade, seeder, and heavy ballast box, but match implements carefully, especially if the attachment is long or carries weight far behind the hitch.
Do hydraulic flow and weight matter for the Kubota M5400?
Yes. The Kubota M5400 lists hydraulic pump flow of 11 gpm (41.6 L/min) and operating weight of 7,055 lb (3,200 kg). Lift capacity says what it can raise; flow and weight help describe hydraulic response and stability.
Official information note
Mistakes do happen. Tractor hitch lift specs can change by year, market, tire setup, ballast, hitch option and measurement point. Please check the operator manual, build sheet and official kubotausa.com website for official information before buying or lifting heavy implements.
