Hey all,
I bought a new Kubota L2501 a few months ago, and it's been a great tool. I need to move my "tiny house" to a new site on my property in a couple days and I was planning to tow it with the tractor drawbar. The tiny house is built on a 16' trailer and weighs something close to 10k pounds I think. I only need to move it a couple hundred yards on old dirt logging roads. There is a decent uphill grade for 100 yards or so though (maybe 5%?). I had assumed it would be no problem to do the move with the tractor, as I moved it last time with my neighbor's old ford tractor which looks significantly smaller. If I'm reading the manual right though (in the specs table under "implement limitations), the L2501 is only rated to tow 2200 pounds!? Anybody have any insight here? Seems like it should be OK to me, but figured it was worth a post to get any advice that might be out there.
Thanks,
Scott
