Kubota Wheeled loaders, R/RT

Transfer case fluid capacity & service interval

Kubota wheeled loaders, R/RT models require transfer case fluid with a capacity range of 0,4 to 0,5 liters. Service intervals include 50 hours, 1000 hours, or 12 months. The data covers 12 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • Across the Kubota R/RT wheeled loader RT210-2, RT220-2, RT250-2, RT260-2, and RT270-2 models, all equipped with Stage V engines introduced from 2019, the transfer case holds 0.4 liter of fluid.
  • The RT280-2, paired with the Kubota D1803 (Stage V) engine, carries a slightly larger transfer case capacity of 0.5 liter, distinguishing it from the smaller-displacement variants in the lineup.
  • A first-change-only interval of 50 hours applies to all six RT-series configurations. An early drain at this interval removes metal particles and contaminants generated during the mechanical break-in period of a new or freshly serviced transfer case.
  • Following the initial 50-hour service, the standard transfer case fluid change interval for all listed RT-series models under normal use conditions is 1000 hours or 12 months, whichever comes first. The dual trigger means time elapsed can mandate a change even when the hour threshold has not been reached.
  • The D1105 engine is shared between the RT210-2 and RT220-2, while the D1505 powers both the RT250-2 and RT260-2, and the D1803 is fitted to both the RT270-2 and RT280-2. Despite the engine groupings, transfer case capacity remains uniform at 0.4 liter for all D1105 and D1505 pairings.
  • The 0.5-liter capacity of the RT280-2 transfer case, versus the 0.4-liter figure shared by the other five models, reflects a physically larger transfer box unit rather than a difference in fluid type or service schedule, as the normal and first-change intervals remain identical across all configurations.
