Kubota GL240 Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
Rear lift capacity note
For implement matching, the Kubota GL240 should be judged from the 1,540 lb (699 kg) 3-point hitch lift capacity figure. That gives a better real-world read than horsepower alone
Hitch category note
For the Kubota GL240, 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 GL240’s captured hydraulic pump flow is 6.3 gpm (23.8 L/min). Lift capacity is still the main hitch number, but pump flow helps describe hydraulic capability
Operating weight note
The Kubota GL240 operating weight is listed as 2,833 lb (1,285 kg). Tractor weight matters because a machine can sometimes lift more than it should comfortably carry on rough ground
Rear implement matching
The Kubota GL240 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
Kubota GL240 3-Point Hitch FAQ
How much can the Kubota GL240 rear 3-point hitch lift?
The main rear-lift number captured for the Kubota GL240 is 1,540 lb (699 kg). Use that as the first-pass number for rear implements, not as a front-loader rating.
What lift measurement should I compare?
Compare the most conservative rear-lift figure you can find for the Kubota GL240, ideally the 24-inch behind-the-link-ends rating if it is available.
What hitch category is the Kubota GL240?

The Kubota GL240’s useful lift reference is 1,540 lb (699 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 GL240?
Yes. The Kubota GL240 lists hydraulic pump flow of 6.3 gpm (23.8 L/min) and operating weight of 2,833 lb (1,285 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.
