We have a small blueberry plot of about 12 bushes - southern varieties. The plants are not huge as they have only been in the ground for 1 - 3 years. Last year we used bird netting to protect from bird robbing. It worked well, but was a pain to duck under for harvesting and caught quite /...

I am not looking to start yet another thread on preferred oils, fluids, filters, etc. I have a very simple question for Kioti NX owners. In looking at my new NX5010C shuttle shift owners manual, I see engine oil / filter replacement at 400 hours, hydraulic fluid / filter intervals at 400 / 200...

My heater went out sometime last night while the low was 26F and the daytime high was about 58F. My house stayed above 68F all night and day. Very pleased with the insulating qualities of the spray foamed attic and blown in fiberglass walls. I know that these are wimpy temperatures for you...

I was a bit surprised when the "regen in progress" light came on in my NX5010C at just under 25 hours. I was expecting a regen at 40 - 60 hours based on posts here and dealer input. I was grappling at 1500 rpm and boosted it to 1800 rpm since the label in the cab says to increase speed to over...

I forgot the rest of it the day that I retired! :laughing: Thanks Travis! I should have guessed fully open since that's exactly how I received it!

Travis nailed it, lots a great advice from all who replied - thanks everyone. So, Travis which position is best for the 60" Wicked Grapple? It may have been fluid expansion because I am pretty sure that I de-pressurized before disconnecting the grapple. The pressure was definitely on the...

I took my Wicked Grapple off to use forks the other day. When I re-installed the grapple today, I could not connect the hydraulic hoses as the grapple side was under pressure. When I loosened a pipe fitting on the grapple, to relieve the pressure I could make the connections. What is the...

Battle of the titans. Cool! Just got my first grapple, I thought that was all I would ever need. :laughing:

Several of us have been trying to do just that over the last several days. Three days after driving 45 miles one-way to the FedEx depot, I am beginning to see why people love their Wicked Grapples. :thumbsup: Oops, I guess I outed myself as a "fanboy" aka satisfied customer. :laughing: I...

The most sane response on this topic so far. ^^ Travis does not need to man up, CatDriver needs to make his case to EA. If not happy with their reply, go to some business organization, like BBB, etc. He is not going to change anyone's mind who had good experiences with EA - the vast majority...

Travis: tooth bar newbie question here. Is there some general standard for the location / spacing of the side bolt slots and bottom bolt holes for tooth bars? My Kioti NX 72" bucket came pre-drilled and I am wondering if the Wicked Tooth Bar will bolt directly on. Thanks, Jim

Rick, thanks for trying to turn this supertanker around. My post #1766 wasn't enough I see - Jim.

yep, delivery in 5 weeks and working the next afternoon :thumbsup: this is my first grapple and it's on a new tractor, so I am climbing the learning curve

On a happier note, I got my Wicked Grapple today after free shipping and over 3 weeks early. :thumbsup: I gladly took the trailer to the FedEx depot after dropping off a load of (s)crap at the local dump, picking up the wife's prescription and stopping at the Kioti dealer. We live 40 - 50...

I am sensing a very good trend here, good job EA. :thumbsup: Yes, Travis is probably scouring the internet as I type this. :laughing:
