Kubota M5660SU Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
Rear lift capacity note
The Kubota M5660SU rear hitch spec points to 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) for lift at 24 inches behind the link ends. Use that number before assuming a heavy rear implement will lift safely
24-inch lift note
Use the 24-inch number first. It is usually closer to how a real implement loads the 3-point hitch
Hitch category note
If you are matching implements to the Kubota M5660SU, start with Category 1 / Category 2, then check lift capacity and tractor stability
Hydraulic flow note
For hydraulic context, the Kubota M5660SU is listed at 10.6 gpm (40.1 L/min). Do not confuse pump flow with lift capacity; they answer different questions
Operating weight note
Weight matters with rear implements. The Kubota M5660SU’s captured operating weight is 4,387 lb (1,990 kg), which affects ballast, traction and stability
Rear implement matching
The practical reason to check rear lift on the Kubota M5660SU is implement fit. Think rotary cutter, medium tiller, grader blade, seeder, and heavy ballast box, then compare actual implement weight
Kubota M5660SU 3-Point Hitch FAQ
What is the Kubota M5660SU 3-point hitch lift capacity?
The Kubota M5660SU is listed with 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) for lift at 24 inches behind the link ends. That makes it a utility rear-lift tractor, so it is suited to common property and farm implements, heavier blades, mowers, seeders and general rear attachments.
What does the Kubota M5660SU 24-inch lift capacity mean?
It means the Kubota M5660SU is rated to lift 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) with the load measured 24 inches behind the link ends. That is usually closer to real implement use than a hitch-end-only number.
Can the Kubota M5660SU use any rear implement?
No. Start with the Category 1 / Category 2 hitch category, then check implement weight against the 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) rating at 24 inches behind the link ends.
What rear implements can the Kubota M5660SU lift?
Use the 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) rating at 24 inches behind the link ends as the first filter for implements such as rotary cutter, medium tiller, grader blade, seeder, and heavy ballast box.

Is lift capacity enough to size implements for the Kubota M5660SU?
No. The Kubota M5660SU may list 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) of rear lift, but the 4,387 lb (1,990 kg) operating weight and 10.6 gpm (40.1 L/min) hydraulic flow also matter for real work.
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.
