Kubota MX4800, MX5200, MX5800 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Kubota MX4800 engine overheating indicator flashes during heavy bush-hogging and coolant boils over into the overflow reservoir. p. 89
Stop the engine, but don't stop it suddenly; allow it to idle for about 5 minutes. Then, inspect the radiator screen and grille for grass or debris buildup. Check the radiator hoses for leaks, as they require replacement every 4 years per the schedule on page 89. Refill the coolant reservoir once the engine cools.
Manual Section: TroubleshootingDPF regeneration warning light stays illuminated and soot accumulates rapidly when operating at low RPM. p. 33
Run the engine at the rated 2700 rpm to raise exhaust temperatures for auto regeneration as detailed on page 33. Check the exhaust aftertreatment devices. If the indicator flashes while in inhibit mode, move to a safe area and initiate a parked regeneration cycle.
Manual Section: Operating the EngineEngine cranks slowly or clicks repeatedly but will not start during freezing temperatures in the morning. p. 100
Test the battery voltage and ensure it meets the 600 A CCA minimum rating listed on page 100. Inspect the terminals for corrosion and clean if necessary. If the battery shows a white indicator window on page 99, replace it with a new 80D26R type.
Manual Section: Periodic ServiceLoader responds slowly and three-point hitch struggles to lift heavy implements when the fluid is warm. p. 24
Verify the transmission case fluid level is correct and holds the required 44.0 L (11.6 U.S.gals.) capacity. Inspect the transmission filter for restrictions. Verify the implement weight does not exceed the maximum lift force of 1300 kg (2870 lbs.) at the lift points shown on page 24.
Manual Section: SpecificationsFrequently Asked Questions
What do Kubota MX4800/MX5200/MX5800 error codes mean?
The Kubota MX series tractors display specific error codes on the liquid crystal display if there is a power train issue. For example, E-20 indicates a "Communication trouble", E-31 means "Meter's part code and ECU model setting not compatible", and E-95 signifies "Solenoid (PTO) is in trouble." If any error code appears, the manual advises contacting your local KUBOTA Dealer for repairs.
What is the torque spec for Kubota MX series wheel lug nuts?
For the front wheels (4-wheel drive), the wheel mounting bolts should be tightened to 124.0 to 147.0 N-m (91.5 to 108.4 ft-lbs). For the rear wheels, the wheel rim and/or disk mounting bolts should be tightened to 196.0 to 225.0 N-m (144.6 to 166.0 ft-lbs). After initial tightening, recheck torque after driving 200 m and 10 times of shuttle movement.
How to reset Kubota MX5800 warning light
For DPF regeneration warning lights, the indicator will turn "OFF" once the regeneration cycle is complete. This can happen automatically in "Auto Regeneration Mode" or by performing a "Parked Regeneration" procedure, which involves parking the tractor in a safe area and initiating the cycle. For other general warning lights, resolving the underlying issue will cause the light to turn off.
What are the replacement specifications for Air cleaner primary element?
The air cleaner primary element should be replaced once every 1000 hours or yearly, whichever comes first. If the machine is operated in dusty conditions, it should be cleaned more often. The replacement procedure is detailed in the "Cleaning Air Cleaner Primary Element" section.
What are the replacement specifications for Fuel filter?
The fuel filter should be replaced every 400 hours. The replacement procedure involves removing the old filter, applying clean fuel to the rubber seal of the new filter, tightening it, and then bleeding the fuel system as described in the "Replacing Fuel Filter" section.
