The Kubota L4240HST is a tractor from the Kubota 4WD Tractor series. Power comes from a four-cylinder engine; from 2.2 litres it draws 45 hp (31.3 kW). Rated power arrives at 2,700 rpm — the engine pulls from low down rather than needing to be revved.

It will not go faster than 26 km/h — a working pace, not a travelling one. Unladen, it tips the scales at 1,665 kg.

Within the range, rated power spans from 18.2 to 116 hp; with 44.6 hp, the L4240HST sits in the mid-field. Directly alongside are the L4330HSTC with 43.8 hp below and the L4400 Gear with 45.9 hp above.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
