I've never heard any knocks on the Kioti DK HST. Rock solid traditional design.

Congrats!
Get a loop hyd hose made up to attach where the hoe connects for when the hoe is not on the tractor. This will prevent possible pump burnout if you accidentally bump the lever when the hoe is removed.

? What are the 'feet' for on the pallet forks?:confused2:

Hey Murphy, How do you like your Kioti? I am going down tomorow to look at a CK35 used 55hrs full warrenty TLB for 22500. It is a demo at the dealer a 2008 model. Yesterday was the first time I looked at one in person at another dealer. Impressive. I need to sell my Cubloboy 1957 rebuilt motor clutch plow carry all ect. If he takes it for $2500 I might [might] go for it.

Feet are for standing on!!!! Will have loop made. Also bought service and parts manuals. The service book is the best I"ve seen.

The service book is the best I"ve seen.

Agree. Everyone with a DK needs it. I don't know if Kioti has redone the CK service/maintenance manual yet but the DKse edition is superb.

Too bad the parts book came with no binder or tabs

I don't have the parts book. Odd it doesn't come the same way as the service manual.

 

[murphy1244]

Anybody out there buy a parts manual lately???

 

[Coyote machine]

Feet for standing on! Wow, What a concept!:laughing:
So why are they 3 feet off the ground on the side of the forks frame? :confused2:

 

[PAfarmer]

Nice tractor. Good luck with it. Nothing better in my opinion than taking delivery of new equipment.

 

[CJONE]

Nice looking unit! Mine should be here this week. Give a report on the backhoe. I can't decide between the woods or Kioti brand. CJ

My guess is from people that don't have one!! CJ

I believe there is some truth to it, and CJ, I do have one! Here is a rather long winded thread about my experience but it gets to the HST eventually, there are other threads here on TBN and my dealer has told me they've seen lots of it. I'm not sure if it's limited to the CK line or if it may be an issue in the DK line as well.
