Kubota M5-111
I'm having trouble reading the data online, and I wonder if one of you can help me. I'm trying to size a trailer. The tractor is a new M5-111 w/ the FEL LA 1854. It's the 12-speed 4WD model w/ Cab. Thank you!

I just went to the Kubota web site. I can see what you are saying. The web site has been dramatically changed - not for the better.

Anyhow - this is what I found The spec sheet lists the tractor at 7033 pounds. Able to find every little bit of data about the LA 1854 except how much it weighs. I would suggest that you allow 2400 pounds.

The FEL + bucket on my M6040 is right at 2000 pounds.

Another note - my M6040 has a grapple on the FEL and a heavy Rhino rear blade. I used all the manufactures listed weight + the Rimguard in my rear tires + all the fluids & fuels and came up with a weight. Last year I drove into town and put the tractor on the grain scales - - my estimate was - for reasons unknown - 350 pounds light.

When you figure the weight for your tractor - include that you more than likely will have something on the 3-point also.

Finally - if you can't get the tractor on a weigh scale - I would not go anything less than a 14K or 15K trailer.

Shoot. Not what I wanted to hear! I too couldn't find weight of the FEL. So I'll have the tractor and FEL...and likely an 8' rotary cutter on the 3-pt. I'm towing with a 2016 HD Cummins Mega w/ 6'4" bed, and it'll tow most anything, so it's more about the trailer than the tow vehicle.

Not sure if your still looking for this information but my LA1854 manual states a weight of 1852 lbs. Less bucket of course.

Yes, thank you--very helpful. I'll need to find the weight of the "light material" bucket, but that's new info for me. Appreciate it.

The 72" light material bucket for the LA854 that goes on some Grand L40 models weighs 325 lbs. Just a guess that similar bucket for an LA1854 would be 500 or more.
