Kubota B2401 Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
| Rear lift capacity note | For the Kubota B2401, 1,290 lb (585 kg) is the headline rear-lift capacity captured. This matters for ballast boxes, tillers, blades, mowers and other mounted implements |
|---|---|
| 24-inch lift note | The 24-inch lift figure is usually the more useful number because rear implements hang behind the lift arms, not directly on them |
| Hitch category note | The Kubota B2401 hitch category is listed as Category 1. This matters because rear implements need to match the tractor’s hitch pin size and geometry |
| Hydraulic flow note | The Kubota B2401’s captured hydraulic pump flow is 16.2 gpm (61.3 L/min). Lift capacity is still the main hitch number, but pump flow helps describe hydraulic capability |
| Operating weight note | The Kubota B2401 operating weight is listed as 1,800 lb (816 kg). Tractor weight matters because a machine can sometimes lift more than it should comfortably carry on rough ground |
| Rear implement matching | Use the Kubota B2401’s hitch capacity as a filter before shopping for box blade, small rotary cutter, tiller, ballast box, and rear blade |
Kubota B2401 3-Point Hitch FAQ
How much can the Kubota B2401 rear 3-point hitch lift?
The main rear-lift number captured for the Kubota B2401 is 1,290 lb (585 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 1,290 lb (585 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 B2401?
The listed hitch category for the Kubota B2401 is Category 1. Match implement pins and hitch width to that category before worrying about lift capacity.
Can the Kubota B2401 handle heavy rear attachments?
The Kubota B2401’s useful lift reference is 1,290 lb (585 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.
Is lift capacity enough to size implements for the Kubota B2401?
No. The Kubota B2401 may list 1,290 lb (585 kg) of rear lift, but the 1,800 lb (816 kg) operating weight and 16.2 gpm (61.3 L/min) hydraulic flow also matter for real work.
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.
