Backhoe Kioti Backhoe hitting rear cab Window

[Phantese]

Hi,
Has anyone had a problem with the Kioti backhoes and subframe not fitting correctly (too close to the cab window). I bought a 2018 DK4210 (new model this year) and dealer put on a KB2475L Backhoe from a machine I traded in (CK4010 with a cab) this CK and Hoe configuration had about 6" between the seat and the rear window. When I got my new DK the seat was hitting the window and bending somewhat when I operated the hoe, very uncomfortable. Now the dealer says the subframe the hoe is on is for a DK model (which are larger machines) but it is a much tighter fit than the CK model with the same hoe on it? BTW the correct hoe for the DK4210 is the larger hoe KB2485. But the dealer says the bigger hoe will fit with the same clearance?? Does anyone have a picture of the KB2485 Hoe on a Kioti DK model so I can see the distance from the rear window, to the seat - I'm just not buying what the dealer is pitching, thanks

I have a Kubota not a Kioti, but the kubota has a frame extender for the backhoe sub-frame for tractors with a cab.

Look on the Kioti Website for what model hoes fit your new tractor. Or call MIE, Michigan Iron & Equipment and ask them.

Thanks but I have that info. The info is correct but the fit is very bad.

I'll ask about this if they can't sort it out but still looking for DK2485 picture on a machine.

If that were the case you wouldn't have the issue you seem to have...

I doubt a picture will solve the problem; I again suggest talking to folks who know the tractors front to back as well as what hoe fits what.

I have the 2485 on a DK-40 series, but no cab, otherwise I'd supply a pic. Have you looked at where the seat pedestal and seat are set in relation to the cab- it might be an adjustment of one of those to fit models with a cab...

so with a smaller 3510 cab frame with 2475L backhoe, my seat is only a couple of inches from the window, and when i open the window up it basically grazes the seat itself. so it clears the seat but jusssssst barely. the 2475 is not the right backhoe for that DK frame size, so while it may work on the mounting end of things you may have to modify the seat position as it was not designed for that DK frame. the 2475 is on the 25 hp machines as well i believe.
if pic shows up you can see if i fold the seat back its pretty close to window.

What's the 'L' in 2475L stand for, long, large, lazy?

You can't be that lazy if you are willing to get out of your cab and hop on your backhoe every time you reposition.

Thats true. I call it exercise.
