Kioti Attachments

[RSKY]

Who makes the tillers, box blades, etc. that carry the Kioti brand name. I am probably going to buy a package from the local dealer and I need to see if I can get the same thing cheaper somewhere else. I have to do this by Saturday morning so I need all the help I can get.

Thanks in advance for your help.

It varies by implement and time (year of manufacture). Many of the Kioti mowers are (or were) Italian made. All the tractor companies rebrand implements and change contracts all the time so it is a bit difficult to keep track. Bigger "attachments" like BH and FEL tend to be US made or Korean.

In general, the Kioti branded stuff is not quite as good as premium standard stuff from Woods or Landpride but better than what you can get at TSC and probably better than the low end stuff from the major implement manufacturers. Italian implements in general seem to be very good.

When we were a Kioti dealer, the finishmowers and roto tillers were made be Sicma. We sell the exact same Sicma product under the Phoenix and First Choice brands for a lot less money. Ken Sweet

Hi All,
Most all the Kioti Attachments are now manufactured by Tartar Mfg. Grader blades, rakes, rotary cutters, finish mowers, tillers etc. all Tartar.
Seems to be decent quality and a good finish. They are also able to be financed under the Kioti programs.
You can see the items on the Kioti website.

We stock the entire Tarter line of equipment at a fraction of the cost of Kioti pricing. The factory is only 40 miles away and we don't have any inbound transportation costs. Ken Sweet

While on the subject, what about Kioti Backhoes? Who makes them?

"Woods or Landpride but better than what you can get at TSC and probably better than the low end stuff from the major implement manufacturers. Italian implements in general seem to be very good."

I don't know about some of the TSC stuff now since they switched from KK, and I'll agree at least in terms of finish and paint the woods and Landpride are nicer ,but is that worth the extra 20-30% price. I have all TSc - KK stuff ,BoxB, rake, tiller ,backB,bush hog and use them hard without any problems. The tiller I bought because it's heavier than most and GEAR DRIVE not chain.

Got my tractor and tlller last week. The Kioti tiller is 'Made In Korea' . It seems well made and the finish on it is great. Time will tell how dependable it is.

What size tiller did you get? Does it have counter rotating tines?

Congratulations on your new purchases!

Here's a little more information on KIOTI Attachments:

Tillers (Before 2010) Sicma
Tillers (After 2010) Hancook Chain "Daedong"

Mowers (Before 2010) Sicma
Mowers (After 2010) Teasung

KIOTI Backhoes and Loaders are manufactured by Taesung and Shindong.

If you haven't looked at the 2010 and after KIOTI Tillers and Mowers, they are worth a good look. The mowers are some of the nicest machines we've seen.

Do the tillers have counter rotating tines?

Thanks
