KAIZEN (Kai = change; Zen = to the better) is the philosophy to strive for constant and never ending improvement in all areas and to urge the employees to do so as well. Improvements in quality and production planning will then lead to a higher customer satisfaction. Four-wheel Steering Usually steering is done with the wheels of the front axle (front steering, e.g. tractors) or with those of the rear axle (rear steering, e.g. mower for large areas). With four-wheel steering, all four wheels of the vehicle are steered. This ensures a very small turning radius. Bi-Speed Turn Totally new steering system in the world market which has been used in KUBOTA compact tractors for the first time. Principle of functioning: For conventional 4WD, the peripheral speed of the front and rear wheels in nearly the same. This prevents the wheels from grinding when driving in straight direction with the 4WD switched on. However, when making turns, the front wheels describe a larger circle than the rear wheels and thus "grind" and can cause turf damage. In addition, the turning radius will enlarge and tire wear on firm ground will increase. With the BI-SPEED system, from a steering angle of approx. 30° onwards, the front axle is automatically shifted faster to ensure harmonic peripheral speeds of front and rear wheels, even with extreme curves. Thus, turf damage as well as unnecessary tire wear are prevented and the turning radius is much smaller than on machines without BI-SPEED system. Zero Turn System This steering system enables the driving wheels to be controlled independently of each other. In extreme cases, one wheel can turn forwards and the other one rearwards. The vehicle will then turn on the spot (turning radius = zero, hence the name "Zero Turn"). Therefore, mowing vehicles which are equipped with this steering system are extremely agile, e.g. they can mow around an obstacle in one process without time consuming maneuvering. Safety Starting System This system prevents the machine from inadvertent starting. That means the vehicle can only be started in neutral and with the PTOs switched off to protect the operator from being endangered. E-TVCS System (Three Vortex Combustion System) This diesel injection method has been developed based on many years of experience with high performance, low noise generation and clean combustion. With this system, the injected fuel is swirled three times in an especially formed chamber during the compression stroke to achieve a very homogeneous air/fuel mixture. The piston head has a delta shaped cavity which ensures the optimum outlet flow of the exhaust gas and which increases the combustion efficiency. Rear PTO In most cases, this is a mechanical power take-off in tractors and machines; mounting profile (1 3/8", six splines) and speed (540 rpm) are standardized. 3-point hitch / 3-point linkage / rear power lift In most cases, this is a hydraulic power lift consisting of two lower links and one top link. It is used to attach implements. According to the tractor size, such power lifts are rated in the categories 1 to 4. Differential lock / limited-slip differential This is used to avoid slip (or, in extreme cases, wheelspin) of the wheel which has less grip by deactivating (locking) the differential. Front power lift / 3-point hitch coupling / 3-point quick hitch In most cases, this is a hydraulic power lift. It is used to attach front-mounted implements. According to the tractor size, such power lifts are rated in different categories. For municipal tractors, this power lift is used in most cases in combination with a 3-point quick hitch of type SK0. HST / Hydrostatic Transmission In contrast to mechanical transmissions, power is transmitted hydraulically here via an adjustable oil pump and a hydraulic motor integrated in the transmission. This system ensures smooth driving off, stepless speed selection and easy change of direction by means of a simple HST pedal. PTO braking function When switching off the PTO, the implement is automatically braked. Thus, unnecessary long-time coasting and the inherent risks are avoided. Glide Shift Transmission (GST) With this kind of transmission, the direction of movement can be changed and the transmission can be shifted into several speeds (e.g. 12 forward / 8 reverse speeds for the L4630), both without clutch operation. This system combines the comfort of an HST with the exactly defined speeds of a mechanical drive. Intellipanel This digital display system can show several operation functions of the machine (e.g. travelling speed, PTO speeds, operating hours). Moreover, the user gets information about maintenance intervals and potential misoperation. Glide Steer With this (patented) steering system, the inside wheel is switched on or off depending on the steering angle of the front axle. This ensures a very high maneuverability without any grinding of the rear wheels. At the same time, both rear wheels are rigidly connected with each other during straight travel which ensures a good off-road capability. Hydraulic wet disc brake In this kind of braking system, the brakes are integrated in the transmission and are cooled by the gear oil. These brakes have been designed for maximum life and they are nearly free of wear. Hydraulic wet-type clutch In this system, the clutches are integrated in the transmission and are cooled by the gear oil. These clutches have been designed for maximum life and they are nearly free of wear. Easy Checker System All instruments and warning lights are within the operator's field of view and can be easily observed. Deflector Optional attachment for rear discharge mowers. If the cut grass shall not be collected, the deflector is mounted instead of the grass collector. The deflector channels the cut grass to the rear and leaves it on the area mowed beforehand. Mulching / mowing with mulching function This kind of mowing system does not discharge the cut grass directly to the side or to the rear but retains it in the mower deck for a while. Thus, the individual grass blades are cut several times and are therefore smaller when they leave the mower deck. In the ideal case, the cut grass "disappears" between the uncut grass and decomposes here quickly due to its strong fraying property. However, when working with this system, the following must be observed: max. 30% of the existing grass height are to be cut the mowing intervals must be shortened (approx. once per week) work should be done under dry weather conditions

According to the tractor size, such power lifts are rated in different categories. For municipal tractors, this power lift is used in most cases in combination with a 3-point quick hitch of type SK0. HST / Hydrostatic Transmission In contrast to mechanical transmissions, power is transmitted hydraulically here via an adjustable oil pump and a hydraulic motor integrated in the transmission. This system ensures smooth driving off, stepless speed selection and easy change of direction by means of a simple HST pedal. PTO braking function When switching off the PTO, the implement is automatically braked. Thus, unnecessary long-time coasting and the inherent risks are avoided. Glide Shift Transmission (GST) With this kind of transmission, the direction of movement can be changed and the transmission can be shifted into several speeds (e.g. 12 forward / 8 reverse speeds for the L4630), both without clutch operation. This system combines the comfort of an HST with the exactly defined speeds of a mechanical drive. Intellipanel This digital display system can show several operation functions of the machine (e.g. travelling speed, PTO speeds, operating hours). Moreover, the user gets information about maintenance intervals and potential misoperation. Glide Steer With this (patented) steering system, the inside wheel is switched on or off depending on the steering angle of the front axle. This ensures a very high maneuverability without any grinding of the rear wheels. At the same time, both rear wheels are rigidly connected with each other during straight travel which ensures a good off-road capability. Hydraulic wet disc brake In this kind of braking system, the brakes are integrated in the transmission and are cooled by the gear oil. These brakes have been designed for maximum life and they are nearly free of wear. Hydraulic wet-type clutch In this system, the clutches are integrated in the transmission and are cooled by the gear oil. These clutches have been designed for maximum life and they are nearly free of wear. Easy Checker System All instruments and warning lights are within the operator's field of view and can be easily observed. Deflector Optional attachment for rear discharge mowers. If the cut grass shall not be collected, the deflector is mounted instead of the grass collector. The deflector channels the cut grass to the rear and leaves it on the area mowed beforehand. Mulching / mowing with mulching function This kind of mowing system does not discharge the cut grass directly to the side or to the rear but retains it in the mower deck for a while. Thus, the individual grass blades are cut several times and are therefore smaller when they leave the mower deck. In the ideal case, the cut grass "disappears" between the uncut grass and decomposes here quickly due to its strong fraying property. However, when working with this system, the following must be observed: max. 30% of the existing grass height are to be cut the mowing intervals must be shortened (approx. once per week) work should be done under dry weather conditions
