My NX6010

[MinnesotaEric]

As I recall, my HST NX has a PTO cruise as well as a speed cruise. I frequently use the speed cruise while transporting from one location to another via roadways. One or the other can be selected, but not both at the same time.

Are you looking at a cab-on or an open station tractor?

A narrow gauge vineyard model from another manufacturer is not what you're looking for?

In other news a storm took out dozens of trees over at the new parcel. Clean up has been a few trees at a time as I'm able to pop over there and work.

Hello Eric,

I thank you for the info.
I decided to buy rather than other Kioti tractors for several reasons, first of all for the low weight of the Kioti (about 2 tons) instead of 3 tons of narrow-gauge tractors (such as New Holland, I already have in the company, Fendt which has huge costs ... over 70,000 euro !, Massey Fergunson which reduced steering compared to Kioti or my new holland super steer ....), I would use the second garden tires to avoid soil compaction when wet and number of fungicide treatments increases!

Basically try to respect as much 'as possible the natural grass that forms in the vineyards.

I also thought about buying a size ventral grass blades for Kioti rather than the 'actual size rear grass clubs, suitable for finely grind branches of trees up to 10 cm in diameter, but the half-ton weight !!

Clearly Kioti cab !!!
The representatives is also in search of the cabin air filters with active carbon, and cerfificati suitable for fungicide treatments in the vineyards.

Reading the manual Kioti I discovered that has 2 functions:

1- cruise control (fixed sure that only the speed of the pto or just the speed of the tractor ??)

2- another key fixing the maximum speed, that is also pushing a result of the 'propel pedal to the bottom of the tractor's forward speed is limited to that set with the button? Possible?

L 'idea would be to use two settings:

a- cruise control for pto
b- maximum speed for speed!

What do you think?

Correct.. I'm not faulting the dealer because they are light but it is a little bit of theft deterrent also and it removes all stress on the front of the radio.

Did you have any trouble wiring the kenwood to the Kioti plug. My dealer told me i'd have difficulty with an aftermarket radio

A tractor dealer (any tractor dealer) knows absolutely nothing about wiring up radios in tractors or any other vehicle. Any 18 year old tech that works as a car stereo installer would know a 1000 times more than a tractor dealers mechanics would. This is a generalization and there could be an experienced tech among the tractor dealers staff, but this would be very rare. Just like the 18 year old stereo kid knows very very little about tractor mechanicals.

I agree in principle, but I bet a tractor mechanic could install a stereo pretty easily. It's not rocket science. Standard DIN mounting bracket & just match up the correct wires. Might be a bit of confusion if some wires for odd functions don't match up, but that's easily sorted.

Ouch, James, that's harsh! :laughing: I take your point, but the mechanic that just did some electrical work on my Kioti would have no problem dealing with it. YMMV.

Mechanics like this are becoming very rare.

I had to go looking for it. I have a thread about my 7320 coming home and on one of the last pages I talk about the radio install. The adapter you will need to put in an after market radio is

It is available at crutch field. Honestly, it took very little time to install. Metra 7-7712 Receiver Wiring Harness Connect a new car stereo in select 1995-24 Acura, Honda, and Isuzu vehicles at Crutchfield.com

Aftermarket radio wiring is very very well labled. Kioti wiring is pretty simple. If you have the service manual makes it a piece of cake...I highly recommend replacing the speakers too. Easiest to cut and install one wire at a time. I left enough wire on the OEM plug and labeled them in case someone would want to use it and not have to figure out wiring. Hard wiring is simple and cheap.

+1 on most of this. 2-1/2 yrs ago when I installed my aftermarket unit I didn't yet know a source for a connector to match the harness. So on recommendation of my dealer, I did as Comancheflight did. Very easy because all wires in both the tractor and Pyle unit were well marked. Now that we can match the connector, I'd probably still do the same thing.

As for the factory speakers, I'm fine with mine. I'm no audiophile, but this is a noisy tractor, after all, even with the cab. I also like to wear small, DIY custom-molded ear plugs (from Radians) whenever I'm working in the tractor, and just turn the radio up just enough so I can hear it. I've gotten much more protective of my hearing as I've gotten older.
