Kubota M4800SU Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
Rear lift capacity note
The Kubota M4800SU rear hitch spec points to 3,310 lb (1,501 kg) for lift at 24 inches behind the link ends. Use that number before assuming a heavy rear implement will lift safely
24-inch lift note
Use the 24-inch number first. It is usually closer to how a real implement loads the 3-point hitch
Hitch category note
If you are matching implements to the Kubota M4800SU, start with Category 1, then check lift capacity and tractor stability
Hydraulic flow note
The Kubota M4800SU’s captured hydraulic pump flow is 17.1 gpm (64.7 L/min). Lift capacity is still the main hitch number, but pump flow helps describe hydraulic capability
Operating weight note
The Kubota M4800SU operating weight is listed as 6,172 lb (2,800 kg). Tractor weight matters because a machine can sometimes lift more than it should comfortably carry on rough ground
Rear implement matching
The practical reason to check rear lift on the Kubota M4800SU is implement fit. Think rotary cutter, medium tiller, grader blade, seeder, and heavy ballast box, then compare actual implement weight
Kubota M4800SU 3-Point Hitch FAQ
How much can the Kubota M4800SU rear 3-point hitch lift?
The main rear-lift number captured for the Kubota M4800SU is 3,310 lb (1,501 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 3,310 lb (1,501 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 M4800SU?
The listed hitch category for the Kubota M4800SU is Category 1. Match implement pins and hitch width to that category before worrying about lift capacity.
Can the Kubota M4800SU handle heavy rear attachments?
The Kubota M4800SU’s useful lift reference is 3,310 lb (1,501 kg). It may suit rotary cutter, medium tiller, grader blade, seeder, and heavy ballast box, but match implements carefully, especially if the attachment is long or carries weight far behind the hitch.
Do hydraulic flow and weight matter for the Kubota M4800SU?
Yes. The Kubota M4800SU lists hydraulic pump flow of 17.1 gpm (64.7 L/min) and operating weight of 6,172 lb (2,800 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.
