M Low Profile Series
The M Low Profile series delivers 104-114 HP utility tractor power in a package with dramatically reduced hood height. With hood heights as low as 66.3 inches, these tractors operate in poultry houses, low-clearance barns, fruit storage buildings, and other structures where standard utility tractors can't go.
Ultra-Low Hood Height
The standout feature of the M Low Profile is its dramatically reduced hood height — 66.3 inches on the M5L and 66.8 inches on the M6L. This is achieved through engineering the engine, intake, and exhaust systems to sit lower without compromising cooling or performance.
- •M5L-111: 66.3 inch hood height
- •M6L-111: 66.8 inch hood height
- •ROPS-only design keeps overall height to a minimum
- •Full utility power without the height penalty
Serious Utility Power
Don't let the low profile fool you — these are full-capability utility tractors. The M5L delivers 104.4 gross HP with 84 PTO HP, while the M6L pushes 114 gross HP with 95 PTO HP. Both use Kubota's proven V3800 3.8L turbo diesel engine.
- •104.4 HP (M5L-111) and 114 HP (M6L-111) gross
- •84 PTO HP (M5L) and 95 PTO HP (M6L)
- •Kubota V3800 3.8L 4-cylinder turbo diesel
- •Tier IV Final emissions with automatic DPF regeneration
Strong Hydraulics & 3-Point
The M Low Profile series offers impressive hydraulic capability for its class. The M6L's 21.3 GPM flow and 4,630 lb 3-point lift capacity are competitive with full-size utility tractors, making these capable of running serious implements.
- •M5L: 15.7 GPM flow, 3,858 lb lift capacity
- •M6L: 21.3 GPM flow, 4,630 lb lift capacity
- •Category II 3-point hitch on both models
- •Independent PTO with 540/540E speeds
Built for Confined Spaces
These tractors excel in poultry houses, dairy barns, fruit storage buildings, and other structures with limited overhead clearance. The combination of low height and full utility power means you can mechanize tasks that previously required smaller, less capable equipment.
- •Ideal for poultry house cleanout and bedding work
- •Fits under barn doors and through low-clearance openings
- •4WD standard for traction on barn floors and soft ground
- •Power steering for easy maneuvering in tight quarters
What Owners Say
- •The low profile design is a game changer for working inside poultry houses and low-clearance barns
- •66.3 inch hood height lets you get under structures that would stop a standard utility tractor
- •Lift capacity is solid at nearly 3900 lbs which handles most implements you would use in confined spaces
- •ROPS only - no cab option keeps the overall height down
- •V3800 engine is the same proven powerplant used across the M series lineup
