Express Steel advertises on eBay and local for sale groups all over the country. I saw the ad for a Tampa location. I called and fount there is only one factory and all items are shipped. I got a 66" skid steer type bucket for hundreds cheaper than any local dealer. Bucket is good quality but it...

Heres a price I just received, Crystal motors Spring hill fl 3/31/2022 ct 2025 hst w/loader 22970.00 + 7% tax. Wouldn't do a ag tax exempt and they don't do trade ins. I bought the Kioti ck2610 hst w/fel and pallet forks, floor mat, rt side step, pats quick link, arm rests, and throttle link for...

Just bought a ck2610h and had the dealer add the right step. The price was bundled in with the floor mat, pats quick hitch, arm rest and link throttle. I have no idea how much i was charged for it.

Well its time for my hydro maintenance. The short story..Dipstick said the level was good. I drained from all 3 plugs and only got 5 gallons out after at least an hour draining. I filled the 1 filter up and screwed them both on and poured in the new oil. I was just able to get 5 gals back in...

my tractor just stopped running while I was driving it around. I had just dumped a load of manure out back and was heading to the house when the power went off and I coasted to a stop. If I turn on the key nothing on the dash lights up, no relays click and the starter won't turn. The glow plug...

lately my 225 (535 hrs) cant use high range. Since new we've pretty much used high for driving around and mowing with no problems. pushing on the pedal now will just stall the tractor. Hydro level is good and all hydraulics work fine. We don't put many hours on per year, The last fluid change at...

went to climb on my 09' ct225 yesterday, grabbed the handle on the fender and got 1 foot on the step then bam I was on the ground with the handle still in my hand. the handle had rusted the metal around its base and just pulled right out. The other side is rusted as well but not as bad. my...

Thanks to Wallace tractors I've just upgraded my loader to the bobtach system. I got a new 60" bucket, a round bale spear and an adapter plate so I can make pallet forks. I had a heck of a time finding the kit until I called Rick at Wallace. I sent some pics to confirm the make of the loader and...

I need some help, I was mowing for an hour or so this morning. I quit for lunch and tried to start the tractor about an hour later. It just turns over but won't fire up. Ive drained the fuel bowl, cleaned the filter. Ive checked the engine fuse and made sure all the safeties are correct. Ive got...

Maybe Ive been sleep walking and getting some chores done... 2 weeks ago my tractor had 65 hours on it. I have only used it since then about every other day to dump the horse manure over to my neighbors. total time for the trip about 15 mins. I figure about 1-2 hours. I got on the tractor to do...

I Didn't find anything interesting in my filters after the service. I cut both hydro filters open and checked them out. No grit, metal dust or anything. I'm relieved but a little dissapointed. BTW my new filters are a different color than the originals. The filter under the tractor is (kioti)...

Hello all, I thought I'd ask for some help here since the bobcat and kioti are built at the same factory. I bought my ct225 last month. I was reading the manual and it states I have the td1300xlbc engine rated at 25hp/18.6kw. Does the 27hp model use the same engine? The area bobcat rep said (to...

I just bush-hogged the back 5 acre pasture. After a shower I'm gonna see about moving that ignition switch. I'm hoping it will fit in that plugged hole to the left of the throttle. My knee was hitting it constantly, it was quite annoying. I will say this, I was using a 6' king kutter bush hog...

Hey, Ive been lurking in the Kioti forum and they all change their hydro fluid during the 50 hr service. The manual for my 225 just says replace the filters. I'm waiting on a call from my dealer. Whats everyone think? On my old deere it was a 500 hr interval. I changed it every 2 years as I...

Is anyone else having this problem, My tractor is sometime impossible to shift from low to med or high. Ive tried firmly pressing on the brake, gently pushing on the throttle, and double clutching with no success. Also the position indicator is a little off, when it will shift I usualy end up...
