Kioti Workshop Manuals

[coxxoc]

Really? You can't see why people aren't lining up to wait a month for a $200 paper only copy of a manual, after spending $20K+ on the tractor? The manuals were already created for the dealers, but nothing like nickle and diming the customer for something that costs you nothing. Tractors are the most likely vehicle to be serviced and repaired by their owners. They should come with a service and parts manual.

I understand that perspective and agree with the desire to have a workshop manual for maintenance. The owners manual didn’t have near as much information but did have more than car or motorcycle owners manuals do.

I don’t agree with the price argument. $200 is less than the price of the filters and fluids for the first service. Less than 2 labor hours at the dealer.

I agree!

We pay out xx,xxx thousands of dollars and the company is too cheap to throw in a shop manual?

That should include the dealer that sold you the tractor.

I don't understand the difficulty in getting a workshop manual either. My dealer told me there was not one available for the CK3520. The sales literature they had was for the CK2610, CK3510 and CK4010. Nothing on the newer CK20 series. Does anybody have a part number for the manual?
I like the tractor so far and think it will serve me well in the future. It would just be nice to have the workshop or service manual for reference.

The service manual for the CK3510SE will cover all the ground you need, I would think, as there is little practical difference between the CK10 and 20 series.

Thanks tacticalturnip. I suspected as much but still learning.

Yes it is still stealing. Data exposure due to lack of authentication or not. That justification is the same as saying it’s ok to walk into a business and take property because the door was unlocked.

The claim that people can’t get a workshop manuals legally in this thread is untrue and being used to justify buying stolen property or to ask for copies of it.

People are free to make their choices. We shouldn’t pretend we don’t understand the legality, however. We are not ignorant.

Does the same apply to walking into a public library? Because that is a more accurate analogy than the one you provided. The website was open to the public. Nothing was "taken", all of the the information was still right there on the website after people downloaded a copy. Nothing was "stolen".

Kioti originally made the information freely available on their website and later made the decision to restrict it.

BTW, I purchased the printed shop manual for my DK4510 but also downloaded the electronic version. The latter is in color instead of B/W, you can zoom in on the schematics which you can barely see in the printed, and you can do text searches. You can also print relevant pages to take out with you rather than lug the thick manual around, grease smudging the pages. I barely look at the printed manual that I paid for.

I have the touchscreen hooked to a 43” display in the shop, don’t really need to print

When you buy a 100k ford diesel, does it come with a service manual. No

and good luck getting ford to let you look at their digital manuals.

my manual paid for itself on first use instead of going thru dealer

There are definitely at least two ways attaining a manual for your tractor.

I speculate, and feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but one of the issues about buying a manual online is the credibility of the source.

How does one know they are purchasing a real manual AND how does one know if they are paying someone money for a manual they originally acquired outside of copyright?

......and, most importantly, how does one know they are not just providing their credit card information to an aggregator who will use it or sell it off to others?

So, if you purchased a manual from a legitimate source, please share the source (and what Model Tractor you purchased it for) and your experience with the purchase so those interested in a purchase know the seller is legit, providing a real maintenance manual and is not a credit card accumulator/seller.

Keep in mind the DK35 thru DK50 manuals are for the actual DK 35 thru DK50, NOT the DKxxSE models. that many of us own. These are the predecessors to the se series of tractors. From about 2003. Now the EX manuals also available on this site are very very close to our DKxxSE models that many of us own. The EX models are sold in europe and asia. Thought not 100 percent the same they are very very close.

If you are gonna be "stealing stuff".. know what "ya are stealing"

Interesting comment. I own a Dk35 whose serial number says 2003. (Bought early 05).
My May 2003 manual has a wiring diagram that does NOT match my tractor in several areas. I have magnetic tachometer for one. I emailed Kioti, but they have ghosted me.

How are you determining the DK35 versus DK35SE??

Hi, does anyone have a digital copy of workshop manual for a RX7620 ?

 

[ArchonOSX]

I am looking at a Kioti NX5010 manual on eBay that is the galley proofs of the PDF and the pages have no copyright markings on them. They may have been cropped to remove the copyright at the bottom of the page. Can anyone verify they have a paper copy that actually is copyrighted?

Looking for a KB2485 backhoe manual pdf if anyone happens to have one to share with me.
