RX7320 3rd Function

[ishiboo]

So, weirdly my factory 3rd function doesn’t look like anyone else’s here. New design already?

The loader bracket is now orange and looks better IMO. But instead of it being hidden on the side, I have a fairly large bracket that says Kioti with the valve behind it. Odd!

What does your loader control handle look like?

Yeah, that is a bit odd. My dealer installed the WR Long version before I took delivery last month; the solenoid valves are mounted under the cab and all the hoses are inside the boom. I think it is 'blended' in so well you really have to trace the hoses to even see it is there. I'm sure the Kioti kit is nice, but I'd be watching that setup for snags. I can take and post a pic if you think it helps.

I don稚 do any woods work/etc so I am not concerned about the placement, but those who do very well might be.

Still waiting for my 3rd function. Talked to me dealer twice this week and they said it's back ordered still. Called two other Kioti dealers they said they don't have them. Emailed Kioti customer service, they responded in a few hours and also said they are back ordered with no ETA. So you guys that got yours are lucky, maybe dealer already had them in stock. I thought there would be some sort of bracket for the Kioti one as I saw those mounting holes on the loader frame and though that is what they might be for.

My dealer did not have one in stock - they were waiting on it. Maybe they had an order in ahead of time, but I think that would be odd as they did not have any RX's in stock. Sounds odd.

Any luck yet? I'm now waiting on my 3rd remote - dealer screwed up and forgot to include it. When I got rid of my NX, I sold with it a 8' blade with 3 cylinders so I don't really have any need for it ASAP, but I'm sure as soon as I find an attachment for it I'll need it ASAP. :laughing:

Got call from dealer today. 3rd function is in. Going to take tractor to them next week to get installed and 50 hour maintenance. Will report back with pic's and feedback later next week. Yay!

@cutthroat-

Good news. Hope it goes well. I'm looking forward to seeing the factory kit. I grew impatient (and cheap) and put on some hoses from rear remotes. Certainly not factory but functional and doable rather than waiting around for supply chains to open up again.

Please do keep us posted (with photos, of course )

Thanks

So here are the pic's of the Kioti 3rd function for the RX7320. It is a very nice clean setup. I only wish it included hard lines along the loader arms like the other hydraulics.

That is a nice setup. Thanks for posting the photos.
