Kubota GR Series Sunshade for Long Mowing Days

Kubota GR garden tractors are built to mow.

Yet an open operator station puts the driver in direct sun. So, Sunshade 30314 places a wide canopy over the seat without closing in the operator area.

That simple design can make summer mowing more pleasant.

Model-Fit Shade for the Kubota GR Series

Original Tractor Cab designed Sunshade 30314 around the Kubota GR garden tractor platform.

Current Original Tractor Cab fit data lists the GR2000 Series, GR2100 Series, GR2010, GR2110, GR2020, and GR2120. In addition, dealer fit guides list the same GR family applications.

Always check your exact model before ordering.

13 oz Stop-Rip Heavy-Duty Vinyl Canopy

The top uses 13 oz stop-rip heavy-duty vinyl.

This material gives the sunshade a useful mix of strength and low weight. As a result, you get a durable overhead cover without adding a full cab around the tractor.

The vinyl also comes off the frame when needed.

Made for Outdoor Equipment Use

Grass, dust, sun, and changing weather are part of mower life.

Therefore, a garden tractor canopy needs material made for outdoor work. Original Tractor Cab uses heavy vinyl for a simple and practical shade.

Clean and store the top with care.

16-Gauge Steel Tube Frame

A 16-gauge steel tube frame supports the canopy.

The frame holds the vinyl above the operator and connects to the model-fit mounting system. So, the shade stays in its intended position during normal mower use.

Inspect the frame and mounts before each season.

Strong Support Without a Full Enclosure

Sunshade 30314 does not surround the seat with doors or windows.

Instead, its steel frame supports only the overhead canopy. Therefore, the operator keeps the open feel of the Kubota GR tractor.

This design is well suited to warm-weather mowing.

Tool-Free Removal After the First Bracket Installation

Low branches can make a tall canopy hard to use in some areas.

Original Tractor Cab solves that problem with quick shade removal. After the initial brackets are in place, the sunshade can come off without tools.

That makes it easy to change the tractor for the job.

Remove the Shade for Low Branches

Trees may give welcome shade, but low limbs can strike a mower canopy.

So, remove Sunshade 30314 when overhead clearance becomes too low. You can then reinstall it when you return to an open mowing area.

Never push the canopy under a low object.

Vinyl Cover Slips Off for Transport

The vinyl top can come off without taking the full mounting system apart.

This feature is useful when the tractor needs transport. However, Original Tractor Cab gives a clear warning about hauling the mower on an open truck or trailer.

Remove the vinyl cover or complete sunshade before open transport.

Do Not Tow With the Vinyl Canopy Exposed

Road speed creates far more wind force than normal mowing.

Therefore, an installed vinyl canopy should not remain exposed during open-trailer transport. High-speed airflow can damage the cover, frame, or mounting parts.

Remove the shade before the trip.

Overhead Sun Protection for Kubota GR Operators

Sunshade 30314 focuses on one main job.

It places shade above the operator. As a result, less direct overhead sun reaches the seat and upper body during normal mowing.

That can help on bright summer days.

Helps Reduce Direct UV Exposure

Original Tractor Cab promotes the shade as a way to stay cooler and gain protection from UV rays.

The canopy blocks direct light from above. Still, low-angle and reflected sunlight can reach the operator from the open sides.

Use sunscreen and protective clothing as needed.

Open Sides Help Air Flow Around the Operator

A full cab can hold more heat on a warm day.

Sunshade 30314 takes a different approach. Because the sides stay open, air can move freely around the operator while the canopy blocks direct overhead sun.

That makes the design a good match for summer mowing.

Easy Entry and Exit

There are no cab doors to open.

Likewise, there are no side curtains around the operator. Therefore, getting on and off the Kubota GR remains simple.

Check that the frame does not block safe movement.

Keep Your Normal Side and Rear View

Clear sight around a mower matters.

Because Sunshade 30314 has open sides, it does not add clear plastic windows around the operator. Meanwhile, the canopy remains above the normal viewing area.

Always check your view before mowing.

Watch the Added Height

The sunshade raises the overall profile of the mower.

Therefore, branches, garage doors, sheds, trailers, beams, and other objects may become new clearance hazards. Check overhead space before driving under anything.

Remove the shade when clearance is too low.

Sunshade 30314 Is Not a Full Weather Cab

A sunshade and a cab serve different needs.

Sunshade 30314 gives overhead shade, but its sides remain open. Therefore, it does not give the weather coverage of an enclosed cab.

Choose the product that fits your work and season.

Rain Can Enter From the Open Sides

The vinyl top may block some rain that falls straight down.

However, wind can push water under the canopy from any side. So, this product should not be treated as a waterproof rain enclosure.

Seek safe shelter during severe weather.

Not a Snow or Sleet Cab

Winter weather can enter freely through the open operator area.

For that reason, Sunshade 30314 is not an all-weather snow or sleet enclosure. Original Tractor Cab offers enclosed cab products for owners who need greater cold-weather coverage.

Use a full cab when winter protection is the goal.

Not a Wind Enclosure

The open sides allow airflow.

That feature helps on a hot day. Yet it also means the shade cannot block cold wind like an enclosed cab.

Sunshade 30314 is primarily a warm-weather canopy.

Quick Installation With Illustrated Instructions

Original Tractor Cab provides an installation guide for Sunshade 30314.

The manual shows the mounting parts and assembly steps. Therefore, read the full guide before installing the frame.

Keep the instructions for future use.

Use the Correct Mounting Parts

Correct hardware helps keep the canopy secure.

So, identify each bracket, bolt, washer, and frame part before assembly. Tighten all hardware as the current installation guide directs.

Do not replace mounting parts with weak hardware.

Inspect Fasteners During the Mowing Season

Garden tractors create normal vibration.

As a result, bolts and mounting parts can need inspection over time. Check the sunshade before use and tighten loose hardware.

Stop mowing if the frame moves out of place.

Do Not Alter the Frame to Force a Fit

Sunshade 30314 has a defined model range.

Therefore, do not cut, weld, drill, or bend the frame simply to fit an unlisted mower. Changes can weaken the product or move the canopy into an unsafe position.

Confirm fit before purchase.

Simple Care for the Vinyl Canopy

Grass dust and pollen can collect on a mower shade.

Clean the vinyl as needed with mild soap and water. Then, allow the material to dry before storage.

Avoid harsh cleaners that may harm the cover.

Store the Shade Clean and Dry

Good storage can help preserve the canopy.

First, remove dirt and moisture. Next, store the vinyl away from sharp tools and heavy objects.

Keep all mounting parts together for the next season.

Optional Rear Screen Panel

Original Tractor Cab also identifies Rear Screen Panel Accessory 30228 for its sunshade line.

The panel adds more shade behind the operator and may help with some light flying material. However, it does not turn the sunshade into a certified debris enclosure.

Never rely on a fabric screen as safety guarding.

Keep Factory Safety Equipment in Place

A canopy must never replace machine safety equipment.

Therefore, keep every factory guard, shield, warning label, and safety device in place. Follow the Kubota operator manual for safe use.

Never change the tractor just to mount the shade.

Sunshade 30314 Does Not Provide Rollover Protection

Original Tractor Cab gives a clear safety warning.

This sunshade will not protect the operator from injuries caused by rollover, collision, or other accidents. The steel canopy frame is not a rollover protective structure.

Treat it only as a sunshade.

Not Certified for Falling Objects or Debris

The canopy helps block direct sun.

However, it is not a certified falling-object, hail, impact, or flying-debris guard. Branches, rocks, mower debris, and other objects can still cause injury.

Use proper safety equipment for each job.

Kubota GR2000, GR2100, GR2010 and GR2110 Specifications

The Kubota GR family was built around compact size, four-wheel drive, hydrostatic travel, and mowing.

GR2000 and GR2100 models formed the earlier generation. Later, the GR2010 and GR2110 continued the GR garden tractor line.

Specifications vary by model and year.

Kubota GR2000 Gasoline Engine

The Kubota GR2000 uses a Kohler GH630 gasoline engine.

This air-cooled engine has two cylinders and 624 cc, or 38.1 cubic inches, of displacement. Kubota's operator data lists gross output at about 20 horsepower.

The GR2000 combines that gasoline engine with hydrostatic travel.

Kubota GR2100 Diesel Engine

The Kubota GR2100 takes a different approach.

It uses the Kubota D782 three-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine. Displacement is about 778 cc, or 47.5 cubic inches.

Published power is about 21 horsepower.

Gasoline and Diesel GR Choices

The early GR family gave buyers two engine types.

GR2000 owners received a two-cylinder gasoline engine. Meanwhile, GR2100 owners received a three-cylinder Kubota diesel.

Use the correct fuel and service parts for your model.

Hydrostatic Transmission

Kubota equipped the GR2000 and GR2100 with hydrostatic transmissions.

Travel speed is controlled by foot pedal. Therefore, the operator can change forward or reverse speed without shifting through a normal set of fixed gears.

That is useful when mowing around trees and landscape areas.

Forward and Reverse Travel Speed

Kubota's GR2000 and GR2100 operator data lists forward travel from zero to about 6.2 mph.

Reverse speed reaches about 3.1 mph. Still, terrain and mowing conditions can call for much slower travel.

Slow down before turns and obstacles.

Four-Wheel Drive

The Kubota GR2000 and GR2100 use four-wheel drive.

That system can help the tractor maintain useful traction while mowing. However, four-wheel drive cannot make a steep or unsafe slope safe.

Follow Kubota's operating rules for hills.

Glide Steer System

Kubota's GR tractors use the Glide Steer system.

The design helps combine four-wheel-drive traction with tight garden tractor turns. As a result, the GR line can work around trees, beds, and other yard features.

Proper speed still helps protect turf.

Full Hydraulic Power Steering

Kubota equipped these GR tractors with hydraulic power steering.

That reduces steering effort during repeated turns. Therefore, long mowing sessions can feel easier than they would with a heavy manual steering system.

Keep both hands ready to control the machine.

Wet Multi-Disc PTO Clutch

Kubota uses a shaft-driven PTO system on the GR2000 and GR2100.

The PTO clutch uses a mechanical wet multi-disc design. A wet multi-disc PTO brake is also part of the published machine specification.

Disengage the mower before leaving the seat.

48-Inch and 54-Inch Mower Decks

Kubota paired the GR family with mid-mount mower decks.

Published deck data lists a 48-inch RCK48GR and a 54-inch RCK54GR. Both use a cutting-height range from about one to four inches.

Deck availability varies by model.

Three-Blade Mowing System

GR mower decks use multiple blades to cover a wide mowing path.

The deck connects through Kubota's mower mounting system. Meanwhile, the compact tractor design keeps the operator above a dedicated mowing platform.

Follow Kubota service rules around mower blades.

Kubota GR2000 Dimensions

Kubota lists the GR2000 at about 77.2 inches long.

Overall height is about 48.4 inches before an aftermarket sunshade is added. The wheelbase measures about 50.4 inches.

Width changes with the installed mower deck.

Kubota GR2100 Dimensions

The GR2100 shares the same 77.2-inch published length and 50.4-inch wheelbase.

Kubota lists overall height at about 48.4 inches before accessories. Therefore, Sunshade 30314 adds overhead height that owners must consider.

Measure the finished machine before entering low spaces.

Kubota GR2000 Weight

Kubota's operator data lists the GR2000 tractor at about 705 pounds before the mower deck.

The 48-inch mower adds about 165 pounds. So, total equipped weight changes with the installed deck and other accessories.

Use the full machine weight when planning transport.

Kubota GR2100 Weight

The diesel GR2100 weighs more.

Kubota lists the tractor at about 793 pounds before the mower. A mower deck, sunshade, and other accessories add more weight.

Use a trailer rated for the complete load.

GR2000 and GR2100 Tire Sizes

Kubota lists 16 x 6.50-8 front tires on these GR tractors.

The rear uses 23 x 10.50-12 tires. Proper tire pressure matters for handling, traction, and cut quality.

Check tire pressure before mowing.

4.8-Gallon Fuel Capacity

Kubota's published GR2000 and GR2100 data lists an 18-liter fuel tank.

That equals about 4.8 U.S. gallons. Still, gasoline and diesel models require different fuel.

Never put gasoline in a diesel GR2100.

Kubota GR2010 and GR2110

Kubota later moved the GR line forward with the GR2010 and GR2110.

The GR2010 continued the gasoline side of the family, while the GR2110 continued with diesel power. Both kept the compact mowing focus of the earlier GR machines.

Exact data can differ by production year.

Kubota GR2010 Engine

The GR2010 uses a two-cylinder gasoline engine.

Published specifications place output at about 20 horsepower with about 624 cc of displacement. Therefore, its basic engine class stays close to the earlier GR2000.

Always use the GR2010 manual for service data.

Kubota GR2110 Engine

The GR2110 uses Kubota's three-cylinder D782 diesel engine.

Published displacement is about 778 cc. Gross engine output is about 21 horsepower.

The liquid-cooled diesel continues the basic power layout used by the earlier GR2100.

GR2020 and GR2120 Sunshade Fit

Original Tractor Cab also lists Sunshade 30314 for the later Kubota GR2020 and GR2120.

These later tractors continue the GR Series idea, but their exact specifications differ from the older GR2000, GR2010, GR2100, and GR2110. Therefore, owners should use the correct Kubota manual for their exact machine.

Fit of the shade does not mean every GR model shares the same machine specifications.

Current Kubota GR Series

Kubota continues to sell GR Series garden tractors.

Current GR models retain features such as hydrostatic travel, an open step-through operator platform, and a design focused on mowing. So, the GR name still represents Kubota's premium garden tractor line.

Machine details continue to change over time.

The History of Original Tractor Cab Company

Original Tractor Cab traces its story to 1939.

At that time, farmer Stanley Williams saw a simple problem. He needed better protection from the weather while working on his tractor.

So, Stanley designed a solution.

A Product Born From a Real Farm Need

The first cab began as a practical farm idea.

Stanley worked outdoors and knew what operators faced. Rain, snow, wind, cold, and sun were all part of farm life.

Therefore, better operator cover made sense.

Other Farmers Wanted the Same Idea

Stanley's prototype soon drew attention.

Other farmers saw value in the design and wanted similar protection for their own tractors. As a result, one farm-built product began to grow into a business.

That was the start of Original Tractor Cab.

From One Tractor Cab to a Growing Company

Demand gave the young company room to grow.

The business began serving people who spent long days on outdoor equipment. Yet the core goal stayed easy to understand.

Make outdoor work more comfortable.

World War II Changed Production

World War II brought a major change.

Original Tractor Cab stopped its normal production and shifted work toward military needs. The company made backpacks and other needed items for the war effort.

Later, normal outdoor equipment products returned.

Three Generations of the Williams Family

The Williams family carried the company forward.

Original Tractor Cab says its story now spans three generations. Each generation worked with new equipment and new customer needs.

Still, the basic idea remained practical operator protection.

From Tractor Cabs to More Outdoor Equipment

Outdoor machines changed through the decades.

Garden tractors, snowblowers, compact tractors, mowers, and utility vehicles became common. Therefore, Original Tractor Cab expanded its product line.

The company no longer made only traditional tractor cabs.

Sunshades Bring Protection to Summer Work

Winter weather was only part of the problem.

Operators also spent long hours under direct summer sun. So, Original Tractor Cab added sunshades for tractors, lawn and garden equipment, mowers, and other machines.

Sunshade 30314 carries that idea to the Kubota GR family.

A Simple Idea Still Works Today

A Kubota GR garden tractor looks very different from Stanley Williams' farm tractor.

However, the person in the seat still works outside. Direct sun can still make a long job hot.

Therefore, overhead shade still has value.

From a 1939 Prototype to Kubota GR Sunshade 30314

Sunshade 30314 reflects the same practical approach that helped start Original Tractor Cab.

It solves one clear problem without making the product more complex than needed. A steel frame supports a durable vinyl top above the operator.

The result is simple overhead shade for a working mower.

Made in the USA Since 1939

Original Tractor Cab proudly identifies its products with American manufacturing.

Today, the company makes cab enclosures, hardtop cabs, soft cabs, sunshades, mower products, snow equipment cabs, and related accessories.

Its roots still reach back to Stanley Williams and his 1939 farm need.
