Love my Kioti,BUT.......

The only instructions I had were for the loader and rops which were decent,but both of those are US made so I don't think there was any translation required.
The dual rear remote kit had no instructions what so ever so I had to wing that,but the tractor is so well thought out that what could have been a big job was really pretty simple....Mike

I don't think Kioti sells crated tractors as a rule,this was something that I worked out with my dealer to save $$.
I don't know enough about Chinese tractors to have an opinion,but my gut feeling is based on other Chinese stuff that I have bought......Looks rugged,but breaks easily......no factory representation.......shakey political climate could makes getting future parts impossible(maybe I do have an opinion after all).........Mike

Regarding the manual.....I looked into getting the New Holland shop manual for my tractor and it was over $200 so I guess if you can put up with the mispelled words at least the manual's price was reasonable.
