Frame

The frame of the front loader maintains its sturdy, thick steel frame, but its design has been simplified by removing braces and connectors. This helps to lessen effort and shorten the time it takes to attach the loader and offers increased visibility.

Protected Cylinder Tubes

To better protect the tractor hydraulics and offer the operator more visibility, the hydraulic tubes are neatly tucked inside the loader boom. Hydraulic tube covers further provide protection from wear and tear.

Lifting Power and Height

Two separate boom cylinder fulcrum points (Power position and Height position) give you the option to increase the M-Series Front Loader lifting power or height based on your needs. When using the pallet fork or bale spear you may want to set the fulcrum to give you more height. For bucket work, a lower setting offers more power.

Rubber Caps

A new feature, rubber caps, prevent grease drips helping to keep the operator’s clothes clean. The caps also give the loader a more appealing look.

Quick-Mount Attach/Detach

Attach or detach the front loader in moments without the use of tools. The boom stands and mounting pins make this task a snap, allowing an extra measure of productivity and tractor versatility. A single-lever Hydraulic Quick Coupler (option), available for the loader’s hydraulic fittings, allows you to release all four lines at once.

Euro-Type Quick Hitch

A standard feature on the LA1153/LA1353 Loaders, the quick hitch will let you quickly attach and detach a variety of Euro-type attachment. Kubota original bucket, pallet fork, and bale spear are available.

4-Bar Linkage

Thanks to an upgraded 4-bar bucket linkage, the rollback and dumping angle has been increased for quicker scooping and dumping.

Joystick Control

Located in front of the control console for easy access, the joystick offers you the ability to control the movement and speed of the loader with a single lever. The Series Circuit makes simultaneous boom and bucket operation possible, while the Regenerative Bucket Dump Circuit enables quick dumping for efficient operation with quick cycle times.

Kubota Shockless Ride (KSR)

The KSR absorbs loader shock and reduces operator fatigue. This option is perfect if your tasks include a great deal of tight turns or lifting and dumping of heavy loads. It effectively takes the “bounce” out of handling round bales.

Single-Lever Hydraulic Quick Coupler

The optional quick coupler allows the operator the ability to attach all four hoses at once. This makes attaching and detaching quick and easy, even when you’re doing it often.

3rd Function Valve

The optional 3rd function valve broadens the scope of the front loader operation by enabling the use of a grapple bucket and various other hydraulically controlled attachments. The 3rd function valve can be activated with buttons located on the grip of the joystick.

Hydraulic Self-Leveling Valve

This optional feature allows the operator to raise or lower the loader boom while keeping the bucket level to the ground. This will help prevent spills when carrying soil or sand and will make pallet handling smooth and easy. This function can be switched off for times when bucket angles are more advantageous, for instance, during excavation.
