Hoe mounting experience

[petrops]

Hi all

I am looking at a few tractors with 9' hoes in the 40 hp range including Kubota, JD and Kioti. Also looking at a used NH 2120.

One big consideration is the ease of mounting and dismounting the hoes. Looks like JD and the Kubota TLB series (L48) have the mounting time trials nailed.

Can anyone tell me how tough the Kioti hoes are to get on and off. I am looking at the Rino 85 hoe for the Kioti.

Thanks

I have no experience with the Rhino hoe. I have the Kioti KB2085, sub-frame mounted, and it's pretty straight forward. Back over the loader, hook up the hydraulics, make final position adjustments hydraulically, back on up. Insert two pins and the top link (lower links stay in place). Check connections and go to work. Ted DK-45
