on its rear 3-point hitch and travels along an uneven
road.
Ride control gets activated when the following
conditions are met:
1. The ride control switch is on.
2. The 3-point hitch lock button is unlocked.
3. The travelling speed is over 6 km/h / 3.7 mph
(automatically deactivated at below 5 km/h / 3.1
mph).
4. The implement is almost at its top limit.
For Standard model:
1. Press the ride control switch, and the switch
indicator lights up and the ride control function gets
activated.
2. Press the switch again, and the switch indicator
goes off and the ride control function gets
deactivated.

AUXILIARY HYDRAULICS
IMPORTANT :
• Before letting a large amount of oil into the
hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic motor or other
implements, consult your local KUBOTA Dealer
to confirm the possible oil quantity and
additional oil quantity taken from the tractor
and other requirements.
Improper handling may cause serious trouble
such as seizure of the transmission.
1. Power-beyond type hydraulic
outlet for Premium and Premium
KVT models (if equipped)
The power-beyond type hydraulic outlet is a load
sensing type port through which a large amount of oil
can be directly taken out of the hydraulic pump.
Connect an implement, equipped with a closed-centre
hydraulic valve, to this port.
With all necessary hoses in place, the load sensing
control hose serves to detect the load level as a
negative one. The pump’s flow rate is thus controlled to
keep constant the load sensing differential pressure,
which is the difference between the pump pressure and
this negative pressure.
