Covers both the M5660SUH and M5660SUHD across 115 pages, drawn straight from Kubota's factory procedures for operation, daily inspection, and maintenance intervals. The safety section runs 11 pages on slope work, PTO hazards, and road travel. A full instrument panel walkthrough maps each LCD warning indicator, the Easy Checker system, and every hand and foot control. Periodic service fills 24 pages: the daily walk-around out to 3000-hour DPF cleaning, fluid specs for engine oil, transmission, and coolant, plus an implement limitations table listing max drawbar load and 3-point hydraulic lifting capacity. Fan belt deflection should read 7-9 mm (0.28-0.35 in.); rear wheel bolts torque to 260-304 N-m (192-224 ft-lbs). Bookmarked by section, so you can search any spec by keyword and land on it fast.

Kubota M5660SUH, M5660SUHD Common Problems This Manual Covers
Engine turns over slowly or hesitates to start in cold weather p. 111
Check the engine start system per page 111. Look over the battery connections for corrosion and confirm fuel is reaching the engine; bleed the fuel system if it isn't. Keeping to the 400 Hr engine oil change interval also helps cold-weather cranking.
Manual Section: TroubleshootingImplement fails to engage or PTO clutch indicator flashes on the instrument panel p. 63
Confirm the PTO gear shift lever is fully engaged. The operator presence control system on page 63 shows how the safety interlocks should behave, so check those next. Top up the transmission fluid if the level sits below its 48 L (50.7 U.S.qts.) capacity.
Manual Section: PTOBrake pedal feels loose or requires excessive force to stop the tractor during operation p. 73
Measure the brake pedal free travel with a ruler. Adjust the linkage rods until free travel falls between 40 to 45 mm (1.6 to 1.8 in.), the range given on page 73. Then work both pedals to confirm they engage evenly and don't drag.
Manual Section: Hydraulic UnitTemperature gauge spikes into the red zone or coolant leaks near the radiator base p. 72
Inspect the radiator fins and clear any debris packed between them. Page 72 covers fan belt tension; the deflection should stay within 7 to 9 mm (0.28 to 0.35 in.). Top off the coolant recovery tank when the level runs low.
Manual Section: Hydraulic UnitFront wheels wobble or steering feels unsteady when operating the tractor on hard surfaces p. 75
Torque the front axle mounting bolts to 124 to 147 N-m (91.5 to 108.9 ft-lbs) on 2WD models, the figure listed on page 75, and make sure all wheel hardware is snug before you roll. Look the tires over for uneven wear and correct inflation.
Manual Section: Tires, Wheels and BallastFrequently Asked Questions
How do I reset the DPF regen on a Kubota M5660SUH/M5660SUHD?
There's no 'reset' as such; the manual covers how to start DPF regeneration. Auto Regeneration Mode kicks in on its own once the engine is running and the DPF INHIBIT switch lamp reads 'OFF'. Parked Regeneration takes a few steps: set the parking brake, shift the shuttle lever to neutral, move the PTO clutch control lever to 'OFF', drop engine rpm to idle, lower the implement, then press the DPF INHIBIT switch to turn it 'OFF'. With those conditions met, the parked regeneration switch flashes; press it to begin the cycle, which usually runs 15-20 minutes.
What do the warning or error lights on a Kubota M5660SUHD mean?
The Easy Checker(TM) on the instrument panel flags several warnings. An 'Engine warning' light points to a fault in the engine control system or to engine overheat. A 'Master system warning' light flashes when trouble shows up in the engine, transmission, or other control parts. Any time a warning lamp lights during operation, stop the engine right away and track down the cause.
How do I clear fault codes on a Kubota M5660SUH?
There's no operator-level procedure for clearing fault codes. Whatever code shows up, whether 'ERROR-1 Acceleration sensor (main) trouble' or 'ERROR-23 Shuttle rotating sensor or switch trouble', the listed operator action is the same: 'Contact your local KUBOTA Dealer.'
What causes hard starting or shuttle hesitation on a Kubota M5660?
Hard starting (or no start) traces back to a handful of causes: no fuel flow, air or water in the fuel system, thicker oil in winter that slows engine revolution, a weak battery that won't spin the engine fast enough, or a fault in the intake air heater system. 'Shuttle hesitation' isn't listed as an operator troubleshooting item, though power train error codes tied to the shuttle sensors call for a KUBOTA Dealer.
How do I turn on the hazard lights or work lights on a M5660SUHD?
Push the hazard light switch and the hazard lights flash, along with the L/H and R/H indicators on the instrument panel; push it again to shut them off. As for work lights, the manual notes a 'Work light (if equipped) 12 V, 35 W' bulb and an accessory outlet for a rear work light, but describes no dedicated switch for integrated work lights.
How will I receive this Kubota M5660SUH, M5660SUHD Operator Manual?
This is a 115-page searchable PDF ready for immediate download. It works on any device, so you can pull it up on your phone while you're under the hood. No shipping, no waiting.
Can I print specific sections of this Kubota M5660SUH, M5660SUHD manual?
