Kubota ST-30 Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
24-inch lift note
The Kubota ST-30’s 1,764 lb (800 kg) lift rating at 24 inches behind the link ends is the better real-world number for mounted implements than a bare hitch-end rating
Hitch category note
Hitch category on the Kubota ST-30 is Category 1. That is one of the first checks before buying a rear blade, tiller, mower or ballast box
Hydraulic flow note
The 9.8 gpm (37.1 L/min) hydraulic flow figure helps round out the Kubota ST-30’s rear-implement picture, especially where hydraulic attachments or remotes are involved
Operating weight note
The 2,475 lb (1,123 kg) operating weight gives context for the Kubota ST-30’s hitch lift capacity. Rear ballast and tire setup can still change the real-world feel

Kubota ST-30 3-Point Hitch FAQ
How much can the Kubota ST-30 rear 3-point hitch lift?
The main rear-lift number captured for the Kubota ST-30 is 1,764 lb (800 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 1,764 lb (800 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.
What hitch category is the Kubota ST-30?
The listed hitch category for the Kubota ST-30 is Category 1. Match implement pins and hitch width to that category before worrying about lift capacity.
Can the Kubota ST-30 handle heavy rear attachments?
The Kubota ST-30’s useful lift reference is 1,764 lb (800 kg). It may suit box blade, small rotary cutter, tiller, ballast box, and rear blade, but stay conservative with heavy attachments and allow margin for implement overhang.
Do hydraulic flow and weight matter for the Kubota ST-30?
Yes. The Kubota ST-30 lists hydraulic pump flow of 9.8 gpm (37.1 L/min) and operating weight of 2,475 lb (1,123 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.
