Kubota B4200
The Kubota B4200 is a small but capable utility tractor that was made from 1987 to 1996. It's a sub-compact model with four-wheel drive, which helps it work well in different conditions. This tractor is powered by a Kubota Z-600A diesel engine with two cylinders. The engine is liquid-cooled and has 12.5 horsepower, which is on the lower end for tractors but suitable for its size. The B4200 has a gear transmission with 6 forward speeds and 2 reverse speeds. It comes with a three-point hitch at the back, which lets you attach different tools. The tractor has two PTO (power take-off) speeds: 540 rpm and 860 rpm. It also has a middle PTO speed of 2,563 rpm. The tractor is small, measuring 87.2 inches long, 33.1 inches wide, and 44.1 inches tall. It weighs 970 pounds, which is very light for a tractor. The open operator station has a two-post roll-over protection system (ROPS) for safety.
