Hi;
I have had 2 kubotas tractors w/GST (Glide shift) transmissions, presently a L4200 cab tractor. I use it for mowing, loader work on a horse farm and snow removal.

The GST is an extremely versitile and efficient transmission. The reverser is great for loader work. You still have a foot clutch to inch up to things and the clutchless gear shifting is perfect for mowing. I mow with a woods RM99 mower its a big mower but the PTO HP of 37.5 is fine for what I mow but I would not want lesss than 35 with that mower. I think you would be ok with a hydro too. If you are not used to running a tractor the hydro is simpler, but you lose a few hp at the pto. I cant believe you would hurt the trans of any decent 30 hp tractor using a loader let alone a Kubota. Get what you like to run best.
