M5-1 Narrow
You can depend on the M5001 Series Narrow Model tractors for outstanding performance and year-round comfort. The performance begins with a reliable and efficient Kubota engine that can power through even the toughest tasks with ease and speed. There’s plenty of power for PTO-driven implements, as well as convenient electronic speed control to keep those implements operating at optimum efficiency. A fully synchronized transmission and an advanced hydraulic shuttle for shifting between forward and reverse simplifies tractor operations.
To work in the confines of orchards and vineyards, you need a special kind of tractor, one that’s narrow, with high ground clearance and excellent stability. The M5001N Series are just that kind of tractor. Just 48” wide, the M5001N Series can go where standard-width tractors can’t, letting you work with spreaders, sprayers, trimmers, leaf removers, and more in the tight spaces between rows of trees and vines. The ability to turn tightly from one row to the next ensures the productivity you expect.

Engine
Performance- driven technology
The power behind the M5001 Series’ superior performance and efficiency comes from advanced Kubota-built diesel engines. These rugged engines also offer cleaner emissions, quieter operation, and greater fuel efficiency.
Constant RPM Management
The M5001 Series engines feature a new electronic governor that gives you electronic control of engine RPM. Activating the system keeps engine revolution constant, preventing drops in PTO speed and enabling stable operation. It makes working with PTO-driven implements much more efficient.
Improved torque and fuel consumption
The M5001 Series engines run at lower engine speeds without any loss of performance, thanks to improved torque and performance settings. Lower engine speeds also mean quieter operation, less engine wear, and greater fuel efficiency.

Transmission
In the right gear
Whatever the task, there’s a gear that will get it done. The M5001 Narrow Series offers 36 speeds — forward and reverse — with Dual Speed technology, ensuring that you are always working efficiently.
Fully synchronized transmission with single shift lever
A single shift lever makes shifting between gears smooth, simple, and direct. Whether you’re
traveling quickly between jobs or moving slowly in a specialty crop, the M5001 Series’ transmission offers the optimum gear for the task.Over Drive
The Over Drive function keeps the engine revolutions at around 2000 rpm during high speed driving for better fuel economy.
Electro Hydraulic shuttle
An electro-hydraulic shuttle lever lets you quickly and easily change directions without using the clutch. Simply flick the lever forward or backward, and the M5001 Series tractor instantly changes direction, smoothly and without stopping. The lever is located on the left side of the steering wheel for easy access. Faster, simpler direction changes means improved productivity.

Narrow Cab
Cabin
An all-glass cab and a newly designed bonnet ensure
excellent visibility in all directions, including both front
and rear implements as well as the immediate working environment. The cab glass is curved to reduce glare and enhance spaciousness, while narrow pillars and a sloping bonnet increase visibility in all directions.Cab doors
Large doors on each side open wide for quick and easy entry and exit. Both doors are glass from top to bottom
for greater visibility of the area around the doors. When combined with the level platform, ergonomically positioned pedals, entry and exit are safe, convenient, and quick.Tilt steering wheel
For easier entry and exit as well as optimum working comfort, the M5001N offers a tilt steering wheel and a flat platform. The angle of the steering wheel can be quickly adjusted with the press of a pedal. Tilt steering also provides greater forward visibility and a better view of the dashboard.

Traction
High ground clearance
A high front axle provides the clearance needed to pass over delicate crops, such as hay, that are easily damaged. A high ground clearance is also useful when working in row crops.
Bevel-gear front-wheel drive with bi-speed turning
The M5001N Series tractors turn smoothly and tightly. With Kubota’s exclusive Bi-speed Turn technology, whenever a turn exceeds an angel of about 30 degrees, the front wheels begin turning twice as quickly as the rear wheels, allowing you to safely and easily enter an adjacent crop row on the first attempt. Bi-speed turning automatically turns off when traveling at high speed.
Superior traction
The M5001 Series’ excellent traction lets you work even in challenging terrain conditions. Limited slip differentials on
the front and rear axels ensure a uniform travel speed even during turns or when one wheel is slipping. Superior traction also allows heavier loads to be towed and provides greater grip for loading operations. The rear differential can be locked when terrain conditions are particularly difficult.
