    Anyone familiar with Sundown Flail Mowers?

    Hi, I've been researching small flail mowers for my 25hp CUT. There are some reputable brands I can order online, and I'd buy them based on reputation (Befco, Caroni, EA, etc.) but I'd prefer to purchase locally, and I'd rather spend less money as I'm not going to use it very aggressively. So...

    Need advice on mowing slopes

    I hope this is the right section for this question. I have usually done my lawn with a self propelled walk behind mower. The last couple of years I hired someone who used a riding mower. This year I'd like to do my lawn myself again, but my knees are not up to doing it all with a walk behind...

    Can I make 3 point back blade go higher?

    Hi all, I recently bought a back blade to use mostly for snow but also for dirt this summer. I've been disappointed to find that the blade keeps catching on things because I can't raise it high enough off the ground. I was thinking that maybe I could replace the left, non-adjustable lift arm on...

    Is this what gelling looks like?

    My 2020 Kioti CX2510 compact tractor started stalling last week and it became progressively worse over a few days until it would not run at all. The fuel sediment filter looked like it was packed with pink grease. I removed it and I from what I can find on the internet, this is what gelling...

    warming up in the garage and fumes question

    Hi, I understand that I should let my tractor run for 5 minutes or so until the temperature gauge starts to move. I keep the tractor in my garage, so if I let it run for several minutes in the garage, the house really gets a lot of diesel exhaust fumes, which smell really bad, and probably are...

    How tight a curve is ok on hydraulic line?

    I've been trying to find out if my hydraulic lines are running too tight a curve. I can't find any guidance online that I can understand, but i sure don't want them to be at risk of rupture. I'm attaching pictures if that is helpful, but would appreciate it if anyone has advice on this. Thanks.

    Can rear ballast be dangerous?

    I am a new tractor owner and I recently posted because I had a disturbing incident where my rear wheel came off the ground when I was lifting a heavy rock using the grapple on my Kioti CX2510 with loaded tires, and no ballast. I learned from the discussion that it's important to have rear...

    Need advice on which attachment to even out my hilly rocky lawn

    The front yard along my driveway is very uneven and makes it difficult and potentially dangerous when I'm trying to have a catch with my son. Plus it looks bad. I've been reading about tools that I could use to lower the high spots and raise the low spots. I don't care about tearing up the...

    Newbie terror, need experienced advice

    I've watched dozens of videos about being safe on a tractor, but none of them prepared me for the reality of using my first tractor. I have a Kioti CX2510 (25hp CUT) and I've been using a grapple to move some large rocks around. Some of these rocks are probably 3-4 feet long and 2-3 feet wide...

    confused about log splitters

    I have a 2020 CX2510 and have been cutting down some trees and I'm thinking that a log splitter would be great to have. I initially thought it would be a no-brainer that I could buy one to use on my tractor. I've been reading for the last few hours and am utterly confused. I don't split a lot...

    Bought my first tractor! (and I have a couple of questions)

    Hi, After a lot of research, I bought a 2020 Kioti CX2510 which seems like the perfect fit for my small piece of land. I bought it with a loader and a Workspace root grapple. This is the first tractor I've ever owned, or ever even used. The grapple hits two of the hoses when I curl the...

    Do you wish your CK2510 had a three range HST?

    I'm close to buying my first tractor and I really like the Kioti CK2510. The other tractor I'm considering is the Kubota B2601. There is a lot I like about the Kioti and it's also less expensive, but I'm wondering about the two range HST. I have never owned a tractor before, so I really don't...

    What is the value of 3 range HST vs. 2 range?

    Hi all, I'm very close to my first tractor purchase ever and it's become a choice between the Kubota B2601 and the Kioti CK2510. Both will be equipped with loader, backhoe, and grapple. I'm on 3 acres of hilly land, half of which is heavily wooded and unlikely ever to be fully cleared although...

    Length with backhoe Kubota vs Kioti

    I'm deciding between a Kubota B2601 and Kioti CK2510. One issue for me will be storage and I haven't seen numbers online for total length with backhoe. I'm assuming the Kioti is longer because of the second seat, but does anyone have the actual numbers? I'd swing by the dealers to look, but...

    Price Check  CK2510 price check please

    I've been reading and learning from this forum for a year and have decided that the Kioti CK2510 is the tractor that would best suit my needs. There is one dealer in the area, and he's pretty close. I went by today and got a quote as follows: CK2510 HST (I don't know what model year. Does...

    Is it ok to get opinions on CK2510 price?

    Hi, First, thanks to everyone who contributes to this forum. The information has been invaluable as I've figured out which tractor is best suited for me, a process which has taken a couple of years and many visits to dealers. I'm planning to buy a Kioti CK2510 HST with quick attach front loader...

    New member in NH

    Hi, I live in NH on 3 acres of hilly, wooded land. With LOTS of rocks. I've been thinking that I'd like to move some rocks out of the way, maybe clear some trees, so I'm in the process of looking for a tractor. We have a Kioti dealer very close and Kubota and Deere within about 20 miles. LS...
