Kubota KL3450 Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
Rear lift capacity note
For the Kubota KL3450, 2,980 lb (1,352 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 KL3450 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 12.5 gpm (47.3 L/min) hydraulic flow figure helps round out the Kubota KL3450’s rear-implement picture, especially where hydraulic attachments or remotes are involved
Operating weight note
The 3,406 lb (1,545 kg) operating weight gives context for the Kubota KL3450’s hitch lift capacity. Rear ballast and tire setup can still change the real-world feel
Rear implement matching
Use the Kubota KL3450’s hitch capacity as a filter before shopping for rotary cutter, medium tiller, grader blade, seeder, and heavy ballast box
