Part of the Kubota Repair Manuals.
This Kubota Workshop Manual covers the LM2605 front loader, publication number 9Y111-13814. It is a 184 page PDF with a searchable text layer, written for the loader itself rather than the tractor it mounts to.
Coverage runs from safety and general service practice through the maintenance schedule and into the Front Loader section, which details the loader mechanism and its hydraulic system, including the open center model and the third function circuit. Specifications include a maximum lift height of 4250 mm, a lift capacity of 2620 kg at the bucket pivot pin, and the hydraulic relief pressures.
With this manual an owner or mechanic can service the loader, torque the frame and guard hardware correctly, diagnose slow or weak lift, and work on the hydraulic valve and solenoids. It downloads as a PDF you can read on any device or print at the bench.
