I thought I would give an update but first, please give me a little tolerance for typos, I have been up for over 30 hours.

I want to thank Upper Valley Tractor for offering help on fixing my tractor. I have about 1 hour on the backhoe and it seems to have more nuts... It used to droop and it would not lift the rear of the machine up enough to clear the tires. I do not operate it that way but I tried it and it lifted. This is after they turned the pump down. I have put about 4 hours on the tractor but I am digging out a bank on the north side of my house and bringing it 200 feet to the south side of my house so alot of driving time is included here.

The previous owner apparently only greased it prior to me buying it so I do not hold Kioti accountable for that but I do wonder why a retrfit kit was made for the tractor if "" there were no issues"".
