    brand new Kioti tractor with issues

    Sorry, can't help you with your problem. I did want to mention that if you have any interest in the full electrical schematics for the RX6020/6620/7320/7620 series, then PM me. They are 2 paper sheets 18"x36". I posted previously asking if anyone owned one and got no response. Toukow

    CK2610H/3510H Misleading Owner’s Manual Data ‘Rated RPM’

    From time to time, my tractor has been having issues of reaching rated PTO RPM, which I’ll post about separately. While looking into this, I found errors in the Kioti CK2610/3510/4010 owner’s manual. My owner’s manual is dated JUL 2018, so perhaps this has been corrected in later versions. My...

    CK3510CHSE Parking Brake Switch

    I’ve never seen anyone post on making the connection you reference to the instrument panel brake light symbol. Someone did post where they had installed a limit switch for the parking brake lever, which seems like the correct way to go. I was going to go down the limit switch path, but then...

    CK2610

    Probably not related, buy I had tachometer totally weird out on mine with around 120 hours. I did not look at any other dashboard indications during this event. It was running and I looked at tach as I was running a brush hog, and it was pegged off the numbers on the high side of 4000 RPM. I...

    Front axle fluid level

    I wrote a question about this too for my CK2610. I had read elsewhere that your approach is correct- don't screw in threaded dipsticks, press in the ones with O-ring type seals. So I filled to the mark without screwing it in. I was glad I followed another poster's advice which was to check the...

    CK 3510SE bucket

    This is a known problem. A couple of solutions are proposed in this thread. Restrictor by Michigan Iron, and a flow valve by Stan B. on page 4. I'll probably use the latter. Toukow https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/kioti-ck3510-loader-issue.414976/page-4

    Adding a step on the right side of a CK2610

    adfd Thanks for the education. I had always had taken the passing comments that the 3510 and 2610 were the same tractor, except engine size. I guess there are other differences as well. If my list of 'to do's' gets too low, I'll consider trying to fabricate something for mine. Thanks, Toukow

    Adding a step on the right side of a CK2610

    unclesalty-Can you post a picture of the mounting location of the step you have on the right side of your CK2610? I’m confused on this. My dealer said (as of yesterday) there is no right-hand step available, and claimed to have discussed with the Kioti Rep. Here’s a picture of my right-side...

    Grease points just tractor.

    As far as I know, the 3510HST is the same as my 2610HST in this regard. As sea2summit points out, the owners manual on page 7-21 lists 5, tractor only grease points to be done at 50 hour intervals. I'm inferring that the PTO lever you reference is actually the three point lifting lever...

    How tight should loader pin nuts be on a CK2610 (KL4030C loader)? Is there a torque spec?

    Hello Mangler: I'm a bit lost by your statement, and can only infer a KL4030C is significantly different than a KL4030QA. Your pins have 36mm nuts securing them?

    Kioti ck3510 loader issue

    Thanks, Stan, for the solution to this issue. Am I looking at this wrong? I’m not a fanboy of any product- it works or it doesn’t, and my tractor has been great in general. I can understand when manufacturers have issues applying new technologies like emissions, for instance. But if I’m not...

    Valve adjustment at 800 hour service for Kioti DK45S

    I agree with Roadworthy's and other's comments. Given the hassle of remote dealers, dealer backlogs, etc. you can at least check them yourself to have peace of mind, and plot the correct course of action.

    CK2610HST glow plug light

    Is your dealer local to fix it? Looking at the schematic, I do not see how the glow plug relay would affect the light indication on the dash, but maybe it's internal to the Preheater Controller seeing current flow to the glow plug relay coil. I would look above the glow plug relay (it's the...

    CK3510 idle speed?

    If I'm using the factory manual correctly, it states your engine is a 3F-TM4-U/3F-TH4-U (manual trans/HST trans) and on page 3-9 says 'Maximum/Minimum Speed 2750/850 RPM. For the 3A-165 CK2610 it states it a bit differently as 2600/1150 (+/- 50) RPM. Hopefully it is something simple. Toukow

    Yes, there are a number of complaints about the Kioti documentation. I was quoted $160 for the service manual, so I assume it's a money maker. I reviewed the data, removed manufacturer's marks, and added references as to how it was obtained. Hope this works, given the new forum format. For...

    Hst/Hyd Filter Lifespan- Years, not service hours

    I notice that the CK2610HST Kioti manual calls out replacement of the air filter yearly (definitely over-kill for me, given WA), but nothing about the hydraulic and HST filters based on years. It calls for the replacement of these filters at 50 and 200 service hours. I will take a number of...
