Kubota L3560 Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
Rear lift capacity note
For implement matching, the Kubota L3560 should be judged from the 2,646 lb (1,200 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 L3560, Category 1 is the important compatibility spec. Lift capacity tells you what it can raise; category tells you what fits
Hitch control note
For the Kubota L3560, position control is listed as hitch-control context. Do not size implements from this field; use lift capacity and hitch category first
Hydraulic flow note
For hydraulic context, the Kubota L3560 is listed at 13.2 gpm (50 L/min). Do not confuse pump flow with lift capacity; they answer different questions
Operating weight note
Weight matters with rear implements. The Kubota L3560’s captured operating weight is 5,400 lb (2,449 kg), which affects ballast, traction and stability
Rear implement matching
The Kubota L3560 hitch spec is useful because it helps judge whether attachments like rotary cutter, medium tiller, grader blade, seeder, and heavy ballast box are in the right size range

How should I match rear implements to the Kubota L3560?
Start with 2,646 lb (1,200 kg) for lift at 24 inches behind the link ends, then compare the actual implement weight and overhang. Typical checks include rotary cutter, medium tiller, grader blade, seeder, and heavy ballast box.
Is lift capacity enough to size implements for the Kubota L3560?
No. The Kubota L3560 may list 2,646 lb (1,200 kg) of rear lift, but the 5,400 lb (2,449 kg) operating weight and 13.2 gpm (50 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.
