LX20 Series Launch

Kubota Canada Ltd. Enhances Compact Tractor Lineup with Introduction of the LX20 Series

The new LX3520 and LX4020 provide operators with elevated operability, comfort and workability

Pickering, Ontario, August 22, 2023 – Kubota Canada Ltd. – one of the country’s leading tractor and compact equipment distributors – today announced the addition of the new LX20 Series, adding two new models to its powerful compact tractor lineup. Kubota-built front to rear, the LX3520 and LX4020 mark the latest investment the company has made in its commitment to innovation in the compact equipment space.

The LX20 Series boasts 35 and 40 horsepower options to meet a variety of needs, with upgrades such as improved comfort and operator controls, noise reduction, premium loader operability, and increased travel speed. The LX3520 Narrow – a narrow model with a width less than 40” – has also been introduced, allowing for ease of use between trees that are five feet apart, making it an ideal equipment option for orchards, vineyards, and nurseries.

“The new LX20 Series models represent the core pillars of Kubota’s compact tractor lineup, built with quality, durability and performance in mind,” said Chris Isaac, Product Manager, Compact Utility Tractors, Kubota Canada. “Available with a variety of implements, the versatility of the LX3520 and LX4020 make them invaluable property maintenance tools for easy material handling and transport. The size of the equipment is just right in that it allows users to operate in tighter areas and be nimble, without sacrificing power, performance, or comfort.

All-Day Comfort
The LX20 Series brings maximum comfort to the operator thanks to the integrated cab, complete with features that prioritize noise reduction. The 4-pillar design with rounded glass gives the operator plenty of space and panoramic views, while the high back suspension seat is specifically designed to absorb shock and reduce operator fatigue. The large, flat deck provides abundant legroom, and makes it easier to enter and exit the tractor, as does the door’s wide opening. Each tractor has ergonomic lever grips and steering wheel for easy access and smooth low vibration operation during any application, as well as powerful LED work lights to provide strong visibility at night.

Operability
The LX3520 and LX4020 include an independent, clutch-less PTO switch for simple engagement and disengagement while in operation and Kubota’s proven three-range HST transmission, which provides optimal speeds that cater to the job at hand. The LX20 series can also be equipped with Land Pride’s Quick Hitch, a feature which greatly improves ease of switching out rear implements and reducing the time it takes to do so. Designed for operators who have more than one rear 3-point implement, the Quick Hitch is the premier timesaving, fatigue-reducing accessory that operators will come to rely on.

Workability
The 35 and 40 horsepower models meet a variety of needs and boast a new 3-point lift capacity of 1968 pounds, nearly 300 pounds more than the current LX3310 model. The Kubota 4-Point Quick Connect Front Hitch lets the operator connect and disconnect the front PTO-driven attachments in no time at all, while the dual engine memory switch allows the operator to easily adjust ideal engine RPM by just the press of the button. The stylish, newly adapted brush guard option helps prevent the bonnet and grill from being damaged, and the auto throttle links the engine speed to the travel speed so that the operator can control the engine RPM with the HST pedal. This allows the operator to set the RPM to a desired level and increase as needed for various applications.

LX3520 Narrow Tractor
Kubota’s LX3520 Narrow is ideal for spraying, mowing and towing between tight rows. With a total width of just 39.4 inches, the LX3520 Narrow can easily maneuver through orchards, vineyards, and nurseries. The draft has a mechanical link that automatically raises the 3-point when a load is applied during the towing operation.

LA545 Front Loader
The Kubota designed and built LA545 loader matched to the LX3520 and LX4020 has premium valving, allowing simultaneous boom and bucket operation with a regenerative circuit that makes it comfortable to operate.

The new LX20 Series compact tractors will be available at authorized Kubota dealers across Canada during the winter of 2024. To learn more, please visit Kubota.ca.
