try a new fuel filter, may have some bad fuel(that’s what I see most often)
The problem must be in the fuel system. The filters are about the only DIY serviceable item on a diesel, Try changing your fuel and air filters. If that has no effect, it’s time to carry it to the Kubota Doctor.
Once a diesel is running and it dies its a fuel problem weather it is the filter a clog in the tank or it might even be the pump. Check the entire fuel system from the tank to the injectors. If you can’t find anything wrong and you have serviced the machine filters and all you might need to take it to someone to look at. If it is a fairly new machine I guess it could possibly be a low oil sensor or some other relay or sensor, but I would check the fuel system first.
