GST
Glide Shift Transmission
Kubota's exclusive GST transmission features electronically controlled clutch-less operation. With just one lever, the Grand L40 offers 12 forward and eight reverse, synchronized shift-on-the-move gears. Featuring an optional creep speed, the GST system can be upgraded to 24 forward and 16 reverse gears. With its quick, smooth and precise shifting, the Grand L40 virtually eliminates engine power loss during front loader use or implement work. Having more speeds at your command will reduce overall work time and fuel consumption for increased operating efficiency. |

FST (2WD/4WD models)
Fully Synchronized Main and Shuttle Transmission
For economical and reliable transmission, you want the Grand L40 FST. This efficient 8-forward and 8-reverse gear transmission is synchronized for smooth, shift-on-the-go operation. Now, all you need to do is simply step on the clutch, shift and go. With Kubota's Carbon-Cone Synchro-Shuttle, faster and smoother forward/reverse directional changes are easier to attain. This Carbon-Cone design makes shuttle shifting lighter and easier for instant responses, especially during front loader work. |
