About the KUBOTA F391 Out-Front Mower
Kubota F391 Out-Front Mower: Professional Power, Precision and Versatility
For demanding grounds maintenance, productivity is about far more than outright cutting speed. Access, manoeuvrability and cut quality all play an important role. The Kubota F391 Out-Front Mower has been developed with these professional demands firmly in mind.
Built for local authorities, sports facilities and professional landscapers, this Kubota out-front mower is a highly versatile machine. Its front-mounted deck provides superb visibility while helping operators reach awkward areas. A powerful diesel engine, hydrostatic transmission and intelligent four-wheel drive further enhance its professional credentials.
Better still, the Kubota F391 can be configured with several cutting decks and optional attachments. This allows businesses to tailor the machine to their exact grounds maintenance requirements.
Front-Mounted Cutting for Improved Productivity
One of the biggest advantages of an out-front mower is the position of its cutting deck. As the deck sits ahead of the machine, operators enjoy an unobstructed view of the cutting area.
This makes accurate mowing around trees, flowerbeds, fences and other obstacles much simpler. The deck can also reach spaces that conventional mowing machines may struggle to access.
That improved reach delivers valuable commercial benefits, with the potential to reduce follow-up work by up to 20 per cent.
Superior Cutting Performance Across Uneven Ground
A professional ride on mower needs to produce a consistently neat finish across changing terrain. The F391’s deck mounting system is designed to follow the contours of the ground. Its front-mounted position also means grass is cut before the mower passes over it, helping prevent the grass from being flattened before reaching the blades.
A fully independent PTO drive system helps maintain consistent operating speed while minimising power loss. This supports dependable cutting performance when conditions become more demanding.
Deck lift arms are hydraulically controlled through a lever beside the operator. Once lowered, the deck returns to the selected cutting height each time. All compatible decks provide a generous 25 to 129 mm cutting height range.
Front castor wheels use bearing rotation to support smooth deck movement, while side skid protection helps defend the deck against uneven ground and loose stones.
Choose the Right Kubota F391 Cutting Deck
Professional sites vary enormously, so Kubota offers several configurations for the F391.
The machine can be purchased without a deck when required. Alternatively, buyers can choose between 152 cm (60-inch) and 183 cm (72-inch) mowing widths. Both widths are available with either a side-discharge or rear-discharge deck, giving operators greater freedom when selecting a setup for their site.
A mulch kit, flail mower and 700-litre grass collector are all available to buy too. The collector’s lever-operated high-tip system allows material to be unloaded efficiently.
Speak to our sales team for further information about all these options.
Powerful Kubota Four-Cylinder Diesel Engine
Professional groundcare machinery must be dependable enough for intensive working schedules. Kubota has built its reputation around robust engines and long-term reliability.
The F391 uses a Kubota V1505-CR-TE5 four-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 1,498 cc. It produces 27.9 kW (37.4 hp) of gross power, giving the machine impressive capability for challenging workloads.
The engine also complies with the Stage V EU emissions directive. A sizeable 61-litre fuel tank supports extended working periods between refuelling stops.
This combination makes the F391 a compelling choice of out front mower for professional users who value performance, efficiency and proven engineering.
Hydrostatic Transmission and Auto-Assist 4WD
Power is complemented by a dual-range HST hydrostatic transmission operated through a single pedal. This makes changing travel speed smooth and straightforward. Forward speed is infinitely variable up to 20 kph (12.4 mph). In reverse, the F391 can travel at up to 11 kph (6.8 mph).
Hydraulic power steering further reduces operator effort, while Kubota’s auto-assist four-wheel-drive system provides additional traction when needed. During tight turns, the mower can return to 2WD to aid manoeuvrability.
Turf tyres are fitted to help protect maintained surfaces, while puncture-proof support wheels add further practicality.
Comfort and Safety for Long Working Days
When mowing large sites, operator comfort can have a direct impact on productivity. Kubota has therefore designed the F391 around a practical and ergonomic working position.
Suspension seating helps provide a smoother ride, while the controls are arranged for intuitive operation. A comprehensive instrument panel keeps the driver informed about machine functions and speed settings.
The instruments are clear and can be read at a glance. An adjustable tilting steering wheel helps operators find a comfortable driving position without obscuring the display.
LED headlights and a foldable roll-over protective structure (ROPS) are included as standard. The latter provides excellent protection while retaining flexibility for transport and storage.
Built for Versatility and Safe Transportation
The Kubota F391 offers much more than straightforward grass cutting.
Its lower links provide a 260 kg lift capacity, while the PTO shaft operates at 2,545 rpm. A variety of attachments can therefore be used to broaden the machine’s capabilities.
For contractors who regularly move between locations, practical transport features are equally important. Tie-down points are positioned at the front and rear for secure trailer transportation.
Optional Cab Available Too
Customers who require additional weather protection can specify an optional fully integrated cab.
Large glass door panels provide excellent all-round visibility from the driver’s seat. Thick padded floor matting and silent-bloc mounts also help keep interior noise levels low.
This premium cab also includes air conditioning, creating a more comfortable working environment during warm conditions.
Straightforward Access for Routine Maintenance
Downtime costs money, so Kubota has designed the F391 ride-on mower to make regular maintenance easier.
A one-piece bonnet provides unrestricted access to the engine compartment. Importantly, this access remains available when a collector or optional cab is fitted. Routine inspections and servicing tasks can therefore be completed in a safe and convenient manner.
The mowing deck can swivel through 90 degrees, greatly improving access when cleaning the deck or changing blades.
Further Optional Equipment for Different Tasks
Alongside the cutting decks, mulch kit, flail mower, grass collector and integrated cab, we sell other useful optional extras.
These include an LED road lighting kit and variety of groundscare implements, allowing you to tailor the machine to different professional applications.
