CLUTCH
Kubota has
upgraded the heavy-duty main clutch with a new, well-tested material of
superb abrasion resistance to extend clutch life. The reliability
of the clutch for heavy loader work has been further improved. The
clutch diameter is 10.8 in. (275 mm) on M4900/5700/6800, and 11.8 in.
(300 mm) on M8200/9000.
BEVEL GEAR 4WD
Thanks to
Kubota's bevel gear 4WD system, the turning radius is comparable to that
of a 2WD.

As well as allowing exceptional mobility in tight areas, the bevel gear
system allows smooth power transfer to the wheels at al angles.
All gears are hermetically sealed in oil to improve durability. |

DIFFERENTIAL
LOCK
When wheel
slippage occurs, the rear differential lock pedal can be engaged
easily. It immediately activates both rear wheels. 4WD
models of M6800/8200/9000 also include a similarly easy-to-reach front
differential lock pedal, which can be operated independently from the
rear differential lock. The result is a reduction in slippage.
HYDROSTATIC POWER
STEERING
Kubota's
hydrostatic power steering, while assuming the burden of heavy work,
provides smooth, responsive steering. Power assist is enough even
when the vehicle is stationary. |

FRONT
LOADER
The
high-performance loaders (M4900/5700/6800: LA1022; M8200/9000: LA1251A)
have been made even more powerful thanks to Kubota's advanced hydraulic
technology. This powerful lifting force is remarkably easy to
operate; all movements are controlled by a single lever joystick.

The boom and the bucket can be operated simultaneously for faster cycle
time. The LA1251 (M8200/9000) has a 4-bar bucket linkage
mechanism, which increases the efficiency of the front loader by
creating a larger roll back and dumping angle. A regenerative dump
circuit allows for faster dumping.
