Kubota Adds Three New ROPS Models To The B50-Series Tractor Line

Posted by Rosemary Gordon|June 10, 2014

Kubota Tractor has introduced three new models to its B50-Series compact line: the B2650 and B3350 ROPS (Roll Over Protection Structure) tractors and the new B3350SU Special Utility tractor. The B50-Series ROPS tractors offer a user-friendly control layout, and Kubota diesel engines that meet the latest Tier IV emission regulations. The three new models complement the line’s cab models released last year.

“The Kubota B50-Series tractors truly deliver on durability and dependability and now with a versatile ROPS model at an affordable price point,” said Paul Williams, senior product manager for Kubota. “No matter the job, these hardworking models offer numerous performance-matched attachments so operators have many options to choose from to tackle any chore with ease, all in complete comfort and style.”

The new B50-Series ROPS models have Kubota diesel engines that are built for greater power with cleaner emissions. The B3350 and B3350SU models offer a liquid-cooled E-TVCS (Emissions-Three Vortex Combustion System) engine, delivering increased power and high torque for more strength and enhanced productivity. Equipped with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), these models further reduce emissions to ensure compliance with the latest Tier IV emission standards.

Each of the new models offer Kubota’s three-range, clutchless HST transmissions for easy operation and the optimal speed to match any job. Additionally, operators can move more efficiently between jobs at top travel speeds ranging from approximately 12 mph to more than 14 mph with turf tires.

In addition, the B50-Series ROPS models handle a range of tasks with 19.5 horsepower for the B2650 and 27 horsepower for both the B3350 and the B3350SU. The new B50-Series is said to deliver the highest PTO horsepower ever for a B-Series tractor.
