Kubota GL241 3-Point Hitch FAQ

How much can the Kubota GL241 rear 3-point hitch lift?

The main rear-lift number captured for the Kubota GL241 is 1,100 lb (499 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 1,100 lb (499 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 GL241?

The listed hitch category for the Kubota GL241 is Category 1. Match implement pins and hitch width to that category before worrying about lift capacity.

Can the Kubota GL241 handle heavy rear attachments?

The Kubota GL241’s useful lift reference is 1,100 lb (499 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 GL241?

No. The Kubota GL241 may list 1,100 lb (499 kg) of rear lift, but the 2,877 lb (1,305 kg) operating weight and 6.3 gpm (23.8 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.
