Kubota G23

[Ragnar007]

Does anybody know what side angle the Kubota G23 will safely work at? Got a job to do with a bit of an embankment and before I brick myself (normally only have jobs on flat ground) wondered if anybody else takes their machine to its limit.

Hi Ragnar,

 

As a rule of thumb I would use 20 degrees as a safe side angle to run an oil sump engine for extended periods though I have no knowledge of the Kubota engine in particular.

 

I would top the oil up just a bit over the full mark to be on the safe side, it won't hurt it.

 

Hope this helps.

They don't like adverse angles fine up and down I've found if a long enough run with the diff lock pedal down, But sideways a big no no IMO

Think they say 10 degrees side angle and 15 degrees up and down. I'm sure its in the manual somewhere.

That said, I go steeper with my JD455 but its all about knowing your limits and the machine.

There are some specific bank mowing machines that would do better and safer
