Couple questions about my new CK27.

[pickeringchris]

In the bag with the manual was 4 socket head plugs. About 1/4" npt size only metric. What are they for?

Above the right 3ph control arm , dangling down from under the sheet metal is a male and female electrical connector. Any idea what they are for?

Thanks so much.

I may not be much help as I've never had a CK27 but the electric wires are probably for user installed lights or other functions. Most Kioti's have an extra circuit for those sorts of things and the wires are generally in the area you describe.

No idea what the sockets are for. Mine did not come with anything like that. Wild *** guess would be sockets for front axle lubrication nuts or maybe zerks. Everything is metric on a Kioti.

Here's a pic.

The plugs are removed from the loader valve ports on the tractor when the dealer installs the loader.
The QD's are installed in their place.
They would only be used if you completely removed the loader, as in to sell it.

The wires are an extra circuit.

Cool. Thanks. Now I can install that horn.

The wires are for a Rear work light the circuit is always on when the key is in the on position I hooked my rear lights to it and they work great

Cool thanks. A rear work light? Is that something facing backwards or something on the rops facing forward?
I guess it would be pretty annoying to have a horn hooked up there. Lol

Either. If you have a backhoe rear facing worklights are useful. Some guys also mount forward facing elevated worklights as the driving lights are obscured by the loader bucket.

Thanks Ed.

Just out of curiosity my hour gauge is 5 digits and says "2" I figured that meant 2 hours. Is that correct or is it .2?

I don't recall how the hour gauge on CK tractors is set up. I don't think my DK has tenths though.

2 hours is expected from the dealer setting the tractor up. I'd be surprised (and concerned) if they only ran it 12 minutes before delivery.
