Start with the job
Choose what your F-Series does next
A sweeper removes loose build-up. A weed brush tackles established growth. A hot-air burner treats young weeds and moss without chemicals. A blower moves leaves before they become a heavier cleaning job. Match the attachment to the result you need, then check the complete fitting.
The equipment range
Seven practical starting points
Compare individual attachments below. Prices are the linked product listings, not a complete Kubota fitting package: the mounting, drive and options are specified around your mower.
Sweeping · narrower choice
KM 13045 M
130 cm working width · 45 cm brush
Choose it for narrower access, or when collecting heavier material makes a smaller sweeper worth considering.
PTO-driven five-row brush. A collector, gully brush or front brush guard can be specified around the job.
£3,595.00 ex VAT
Listed product price
Sweeper listing only. F-Series bracket, drive specification and accessories are additional.
Sweeping · wider coverage
KM 15045 M
150 cm working width · 45 cm brush
Choose it for open paths and larger paved areas where a wider pass suits the access and lift capacity.
The 1.5 m PTO-driven sweeper used in Kersten’s published F-Series installation. Adjustable gauge wheels set brush contact.
£3,950.00 ex VAT
Listed product price
Sweeper listing only. Confirm the F-Series bracket, PTO configuration and any collection equipment.
Weed removal & path edging
UB 6080 MH
60 / 80 cm brush options · PTO-to-hydraulic drive
Choose it for established weeds, moss and overgrown path edges that need active mechanical removal.
The PTO drives the attachment’s hydraulic pump. The published F-Series setup uses an ABR UB FM frame, 60 cm brush plate and joystick control.
£7,895.00 ex VAT
Listed product price
Base unit listing. Brush plate, mounting frame and controller are additional. The listing specifies 30–60 hp: smaller F-Series models need a different specification review.
Thermal weed control · hot air
HOAF WeedAir 1002 IB
100 cm working width · 77 kW · 3 main + 2 side burners
Choose it for chemical-free treatment of young weeds and moss on paths, gravel and sandy areas, with side burners for walls and edges.
No PTO drive needed: propane hot air, with temperature and independent side-burner control from the driver’s seat. Covers up to 1,500 m² per hour at 1.5 km/h.
£11,950.00 ex VAT
Listed product price
Burner listing only. Needs the outfront-mower ABR bracket, a gas bottle frame and propane supply. It weighs 75 kg before gas, so confirm the loaded weight against your mower’s lift capacity.
Leaves & loose debris
LBV 6900 M
Mechanical PTO drive · inlet / outlet silencers
Choose it for leaves and loose organic material where blowing to a suitable collection area fits the site.
Uses the carrier’s PTO rather than a separate blower engine. Specify the mounting frame and discharge arrangement for your mower.
£5,395.00 ex VAT
Listed product price
Blower listing without mounting bracket. Hydraulic discharge options require the appropriate controls and supply.
Winter · snow ploughing
SCHN 14060 FK-ABR

Choose it for pushing snow off access routes where there is room to place the cleared material beside the route.
Spring protection and adjustable skids support controlled clearance. The blade needs the correct mower frame and lift / angling arrangement.
£1,950.00 ex VAT
Listed product price
Snow blade listing without bracket. Confirm the F-Series mounting and hydraulic-control requirements.
Winter · two-stage snow blowing
Cerruti L 1400 B
140 cm working width · mechanical drive
Choose it when deeper snow or limited space for windrows makes a snow blower more useful than pushing with a blade.
Two-stage design with hydraulic chute rotation and deflector adjustment. Match the PTO, mounting, weight and control requirements to the exact F-Series model.
£7,150.00 ex VAT
Listed product price
Snow blower listing. Carrier-specific mounting, PTO and hydraulic services must be included in the final specification.
All prices exclude VAT. F-Series mounting frames, carrier-specific drive arrangements, controls and optional equipment may be additional. Prices refresh from the product pages on kerstenuk.com; open the listing or request a quotation to confirm the latest configuration and price.
The connection matters
Lift arms, mounting frame, drive. One matched system.
The F-Series already has front lift arms and a PTO for its mower deck. For the published Kersten installations, the attachment replaces the deck and connects through the appropriate mower mounting frame.
The PTO supplies the powered implement. Its shaft, speed, rotation and drive arrangement must match the attachment; a generic tractor PTO configuration should not be assumed to fit.
Kubota lists a 2,545 rpm front PTO for the F251 / F391 range. That is why the mower-specific drive specification matters as much as the mounting bracket.
Which F-Series models should I ask about?
The current Kersten application page names F251-E, F251, F391 and F3890. Published installations also reference models including F2560, F2680E, F2880, F3060, F3680, F2690 and F3090.
This is a starting list, not confirmation that every attachment fits every model. Send the complete model, year or serial number, and details of any hydraulic kit or cab. The UB 6080 MH listing specifies 30–60 hp, so it must not be treated as an automatic choice for a 25 hp F251.
A PTO sweeper is not a hydraulic sweeper
The KM45 M models use mechanical PTO drive. Hydraulic H models require an adequate hydraulic supply. Having hydraulic lift arms does not mean the mower has the continuous oil flow needed to power a hydraulic attachment.
The MH weed brush brings its own hydraulic system
In the published UB 6080 MH installation, the mower PTO drives a hydraulic pump connected to the attachment’s reservoir. This supplies the brush system and its functions, with a joystick mounted at the operator’s position.
Collection changes the specification
The F-Series sweeper case study specifies an additional Kubota hydraulic kit for opening and closing the collector. Check the loaded attachment weight, not just the empty sweeper: wet soil and grit add load quickly.
Specify the complete installation
The fitting components are part of the choice
These are examples used in the published F-Series installations. The sweeper frame and weed-brush frame perform different jobs; choose the version specified for your exact mower.

Questions before you choose
Do I need to buy a separate front linkage?
For the published F-Series sweeper and weed-brush installations, the mower’s existing lift arms are used with a suitable attachment frame. This differs from fitting a front linkage to a compact tractor. The correct ABR frame and drive arrangement still need to be specified for your mower.
Which is better: the 1.3 m or 1.5 m sweeper?
The 1.5 m model covers a wider strip and is shown in the F-Series case study. The 1.3 m option can be worth considering for restricted access or heavier collected material. Check overall width, width when angled, lifting limits and the weight of a full collector before deciding.
Can I fit a collector without additional hydraulics?
The published F-Series sweeper installation calls for a Kubota hydraulic kit to open and close the collector. Confirm what is already fitted to your mower and the requirements of the collector being supplied. The base machine’s lifting function should not be confused with an auxiliary hydraulic service.
Is the UB 6080 MH suitable for every F-Series?
No universal fit should be assumed. Kersten has published a successful F-Series installation, but the current attachment listing specifies 30–60 hp and the final arrangement includes the mounting frame, brush plate and controls. A smaller model such as the 25 hp F251 needs a specific suitability check.
Can a blower replace a sweeper?
A blower moves loose leaves and light material to another suitable location. A sweeper physically brushes the surface and can collect the debris when fitted with the right box. Embedded soil, moss and established weeds require a different level of mechanical action; choose around what needs removing and where it will go.
What should I send for a fitting quotation?
Send the full Kubota model, year or serial number, the job and surface, available access width, and details of hydraulic services or a cab. Photographs of the front lift arms and PTO connection help identify the mounting and drive arrangement. Include the intended accessories so the loaded configuration can be checked.
