I pulled fuel tanks out of 3 new Kubotas this year. With the same symptom.

1...60 hours on the tractor, I Found tin foil top from a fuel additive bottle plugging the fuel outlet on the tank. (with 60 hours on the tractor I suspected the customers fuel supply left the tin in the tank) picked up, repaired and delivered tractor.

2...7 hours on tractor, I found large flat rubberband in pieces in the fuel tank plugging the oulet. (likely left on fuel sender at installation time at factory) Picked up, repaired , delivered tractor.

3...8 hours on tractor I found a large moth in the tank blocking the fuel outlet. (difficult to determine origin) Picked up, repaired, delivered tractor

All tractors were repaired buy dealer good will.

Only the customer with 60 hours on the machine was charged for Pick up and Delivery at a reduced rate.

No OEM Will Warranty Fuel Quality problems.

I personally recommend using a funnel with a built in filter or filtered supply to avoid contamination.
