Design

The Kubota L3302 comes with an ergonomic design with a semi-flat deck, which makes it easy to mount and dismount the tractor. The L02 series has a more modern bonnet and grille than the L01. What’s also new is the LED headlights and side working lights for easier use during low light conditions.

The opening of the hood is equipped with a gas strut system, making it easy to access the area under the hood. You can easily use this tractor even in your small and mid-size fields and backyards because of its compact form factor.

Performance

The small form factor of the Kubota L3302 doesn’t mean that you’ll need to compromise on power. In fact, it’s one of the most powerful tractors available in the market this size.

It has a fuel-efficient engine that generates outstanding power and it meets the emission standard of EPA Tier 4. With these specs, the Kubota L3302 tractor offers superior performance for tasks that require both efficiency and power.

This tractor is available in three different transmission styles.

The first is the HST, or hydrostatic transmission. This is a 3-range transmission that operates in low, medium or high. There is a treadle pedal that controls both forward and reverse. On the L2510 there is also an option to add cruise control.

The second transmission type is the gear drive transmission. This offers four main shifting speeds and the high/low separate shift is also available. This totals to eight reverse shifts and eight forward shifts that provide outstanding power. It’s important to note that all the shift speeds are inline, making it extremely easy to shift between different speeds.

The last transmission style is the Live PTO, or transmission driven engagement. This style allows you to stop, change gears and backup while power is supplied. This is typically useful for mowing applications.

The Kubota L3302 tractor features wet disc brakes that are smooth and responsive. They remain submerged in oil, which not only allows them to activate with little pressure but it also increases their longevity.

Operator’s Comfort

The Kubota L3302 tractor comes with a spacious driver’s platform and seat for optimal comfort. There is more space than the L3301 particularly by the removal of the HST clutch.

The tractor features a foldable protective structure that keeps the operator safe even if the vehicle rolls over. If you need to store the tractor or pass it through an area with low clearance, you can fold down the roll-over protective structure.

The Kubota L3302 can be used on rough and bumpy terrain, thanks to the retractable seat belt. The seat also features adjustable suspension and you can set it according to your preferences. The suspension seat has been improved for optimal comfort compared to the L02.

Additionally in the seating area, new levers and steering wheels are more optimal for ergonomics and option arm rests can also improve operator comfort.

The floor of the cab is standard with rubber floor mats for better grip and easier cleaning, but there is also new dual brake pedals for independently braking the left and right side individually.

The minimum turn radius of the tractor is around 2.5 meters. There are large gauges available that the operator can use to examine the tractor’s vitals such as oil levels. The tractor has a convenient cup holder as well where you can place a water cup or a mug of tea or coffee.

All variants of this tractor offer a large toolbox that’s located behind the driver’s seat (or next to the seat near the left fender in variants with the backhoe). The tractor also offers multiple headlamps that help you to work in low-light conditions.

In addition, there is also a feature-rich dashboard panel offering a large digital LCD and gauges. You can use it to keep an eye on the tractor’s performance and read the engine error codes as well as the RPM, temperature, and fuel level of the tractor.

Attachments

The Kubota L3302 is equipped with 3 point hitch system which has precise position control for lifting and lowering attachments. It has an optional telescoping stabilizer and a Land Pride quick hitch makes it really easy to switch implements/attachments with minimal effort. If you plan to operate frequently with more than one implement, the quick hitch will make your life much easier.

There are two main attachments available for the Kubota L3302, including the Kubota BH77 backhoe and Kubota LA526 front loader. Both of the available attachments are specially designed to handle big tasks. They are exceptionally durable and offer outstanding lifting height and power.

Maintenance

The Kubota L3302 is an easy-to-maintain tractor. The best way to keep your maintenance cost low is to perform a daily inspection. It includes checking the levels of motor oil, and transmission/hydraulic oil daily. It’s also important to check the engine air filter and replace that with the new one when required.

The L3302 has a new prefilter with a water separator which isn’t included in the L3301. This has a built in alarm that notifies the operator when it is full and needs to be emptied.

Performing these small tasks will increase the longevity of different components of the tractor and you’ll need to spend less money on maintenance.

The engine oil, engine oil filter, transmission oil and hydraulic oil should be changed after the first 50 hours of use and then every 200 hours starting at 200 hours of use.

Final Words

The Kubota L3302 is a small yet powerful tractor that’s specially designed for new tractor operators. It suits tractor owners who need an entry-level machine that comes with a large chassis and a reasonable price tag. We hope this guide will help you decide whether the Kubota L3302 is the right tractor for you or not.
