Covers specific upgrades: loader grille guard, larger fuel filter with drain valve, repositioned PTO switch, parked-PTO dash button, and sway bars as standard. Ends with a candid admission that the MX outsold it historically but narrowing price gap (now $4,000, $5,000 apart) may change that. Best for buyers deciding between this tractor and the MX.
Posted by Messick's Farm Equipment, a dealership channel, the presenter is knowledgeable and unusually candid about sales history, but the channel has a commercial interest in selling both machines.
It has slightly more net horsepower from the same engine, a larger fuel filter with a drain valve, a repositioned PTO switch, a new parked-PTO dash button, and a grille guard that accepts brush guard inserts.
Crack open the valve on the bottom of the fuel filter and let the water drain out, without removing the entire fuel bowl.
The MX has historically outsold the L4802 due to its heavier loader, larger tires, and Category 2 rear end, but the price gap is now $4,000 to $5,000, making the L4802 more attractive.
Yes, sway bars come standard on this tractor, while many of Kubota's other lower horsepower standard tractors use a less deluxe check chain instead.
