Kubota Skid Steer Warning Lights

If you work with a Kubota tractor, you know that they come with a variety of different warning lights. Chances are, you’ve used at least one of these lights in your work life—maybe to indicate when the steering is loose, or when the throttle is open too far. In this blog post, we will explore the history of the Kubota skid steer warning lights and how they work. We’ll also cover some common uses for these lights and how to properly troubleshoot them when they don’t work as expected.

What are Kubota Skid Steer Warning Lights?

When operating a Kubota skid steer, it is important to know when warning lights are activated in order to avoid potential safety hazards. These warning lights indicate that the machine is not operating at its full potential and should be avoided if possible. The following are the most common warning lights and their meanings:

• Kubota Skid Steer Red Warning Light: This light indicates that the Kubota skid steer is unstable and should be avoided.
• Kubota Skid Steer Yellow Warning Light: This light warns operators of possible damage caused by the machine’s operation.
• Kubota Skid Steer Green Warning Light: This light indicates that the skid steer is operating within safe limits.

How do Kubota Skid Steer Warning Lights work?

Kubota Skid Steer Warning Lights work by emitting a red light when the skid steer is in low gear and a warning light when the skid steer is in high gear. When the skid steer is in neutral, the warning lights will turn off.

When should you replace a Kubota Skid Steer Warning Light?

When your Kubota Skid Steer Warning Light goes out, it means one of two things: either the light sensor is bad, or the bulb has blown. If you have a model with a digital warning light, you should replace the light sensor first. If you have a model with a manual warning light, you should replace the bulb. Here’s when to do each:

If Your Kubota Skid Steer Warning Light Uses A Digital Sensor

1. First try turning off all the switches and connectors near the skid steer. This can reset any faulty sensors.
2. If that doesn’t work, then you’ll have to remove the cover over the sensor. There are usually screws in several locations, so be careful not to lose them. Once that’s off, use a voltmeter to check for power going to the sensor. If there’s no power, then the sensor is likely bad and needs to be replaced.
3. Once you’ve confirmed that the sensor is bad, replace it by unscrewing the three screws and putting in a new one. Reattach everything and turn on your skid steer again. You’re done!

If Your Kubota Skid Steer Warning Light Uses A Bulb

1. First make sure that there’s enough light coming from the warning light by checking all of its connections and turning on all of its switches. Then test the bulb by shining a bright light into it from close range. If the bulb is bad, it will probably burn out quickly.
2. If the bulb is bad, you’ll have to replace it. There are usually two screws that hold the light in place. Remove them and replace the bulb. Replace the screws and enjoy your warning light again!

If you own a Kubota skid steer, it is important to be aware of the warning lights that may indicate an issue. By knowing what these lights mean, you can take appropriate action to prevent further damage or even loss of equipment.
