My CK27HST delivered yesterday - Fri Mar 28

[davrow]

It was a long wait - they had to order the backhoe, install the loader, backhoe and two rear remotes - but it is home! :cool2:



I sure am glad I bought local. Not just for free delivery, but there was a snag. When the boss was demoing it for me, the loader would not dump! One joystick connection worked loose on the drive here.

So, wrenching on my new tractor already. He did all the work, I watched and learned. It's working fine now, but he is going to get a new joystick and have his mechanic come out and replace it. And he's going to give me stabilizer pads, too.

Time to go out and get it dirty!

Thanks everyone for your help in deciding what to get.

That's a nice looking tractor.
Would you mind taking a close up of where the hydraulic hoses connect to the tractor from the loader. I have an older ck27 and my loader hoses connect on the outside of the loader frame, not a good spot. Would be interested to see where they mounted the bracket. Hope the weekend was a productive one with plenty of dirt to work in. Congrats.

treman, I have those pics, but not on this computer. I'll try to remember to post them for you.

Thank you, I've been looking and without getting some new hoses I have yet to find a good place for the bracket. I am hoping wherever it is that the newer ones are mounted would work with my hoses.
