The M6S-111 features a durable Kubota-built V-3800-Tier IV diesel engine. Rated at 114 HP* and 95 PTO HP**, the M6S-111 can be performance-matched with a complete line of Kubota disc mowers, hay tedders, rakes and BV-Series balers. Constant RPM management memory minimizes repetitive actions, adding performance efficiency in applications like front loader work. The engine features a common rail fuel system, intercooler and exhaust gas recirculation, while employing a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and a selective catalytic reduction for minimized emissions.
Transmission Versatility For Easy Operation
The Kubota M6S-111 transmission brings economical, top-of-class versatility required across the full range of haying applications and cattle farm chores. The Swing Shift 16F x 16R transmission comes standard on the M6S-111SHDC and M6S-111SHC. The Swing Shift actuates the electric over hydraulic range shift to provide eight speed options through a single lever control, giving the flexibility needed for load increases, hay tool operation and travel across varying field conditions. Eight additional speeds are activated with the auxiliary range lever, conveniently positioned to the left of the tractor seat. A dealer-installed creep option adds eight slower speeds to the 16F x 16R, for a total 24F x 24R. The Swing Shift Plus, standard on the F32 x R32 transmission in the M6S-111SDSC, makes 16 speeds available through a single lever control. An optional creeper ads 16 additional speeds for the M6S-111SDSC, bringing the total gear selection to 48F x 48R.
