Kubota M ..60 – the compact standard-tractor range from Japan: the M6060 ROPS, M7060 and M8560 with four-cylinder diesels, 49 to 67 kW, up to 5.5 t gross weight

The M-60 range forms Kubota's mid-size class of standard tractors between the compact and the big MGX models; the type logic follows the pattern of M plus power class plus the 60 suffix for this generation – the M6060, M7060 and M8560 rise in engine power and equipment. The ROPS version of the M6060 carries an open build with a roll bar instead of a cab, a simpler and lighter design aimed at smaller farms.

The register lists here 3 versions with 49 to 67 kW output at 2,400 to 2,600 rpm, from four-cylinder diesels of 3,331 to 3,769 cm³. Unladen weights range from 2,790 to 3,665 kg, gross weight up to 5,500 kg, lengths from 3,675 to 4,395.5 mm, widths from 1,855 to 2,280 mm and heights from 2,515 to 2,650 mm; all three models run on diesel.

The M-60 range targets mid-size farms and contractors looking for a versatile standard tractor suited to a front loader, without having to invest in Kubota's largest class; the plain ROPS version further lowers the entry price for operations with lower demands on driver comfort.

On a used purchase, operating hours and oil-change intervals of the four-cylinder diesel count, the condition of clutch, gearbox and PTO, the tightness of the hydraulic system, and on the open ROPS version the condition of the roll bar and seat mounting; parts run through Kubota's dealer network.

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.
Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
