Kubota GL27 Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
Rear lift capacity note
For implement matching, the Kubota GL27 should be judged from the 1,540 lb (699 kg) lift at 24 inches behind the link ends figure. That gives a better real-world read than horsepower alone
24-inch lift note
A 24-inch rating matters because weight gets harder to lift as it moves farther behind the tractor
Hitch category note
For the Kubota GL27, Category 1 is the important compatibility spec. Lift capacity tells you what it can raise; category tells you what fits
Hydraulic flow note
Hydraulic pump flow is listed as 6.6 gpm (25 L/min). That is useful context for hydraulic response and some rear or auxiliary hydraulic functions
Operating weight note
For the Kubota GL27, operating weight is 2,535 lb (1,150 kg). Use that beside rear lift capacity before hanging a heavy implement out the back
Rear implement matching
The Kubota GL27 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

Yes. The Kubota GL27 lists hydraulic pump flow of 6.6 gpm (25 L/min) and operating weight of 2,535 lb (1,150 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.
