    Water in tank/fuel filter of Kioti CK35.

    The ring did come off the bowl filter readily using the large Channelock pliers dfkrug suggested. PBlaster is a good suggestion and would have been the next step if that hadn't worked. I was able to get most of the fuel tank empty by siphoning it. The rest was drained by disconnecting the fuel...

    Water in tank/fuel filter of Kioti CK35.

    Thank you very much again dfkrug. I'll do as you say. Appreciate the advice on clearing the air out of the lines. I do use red diesel so it may be a bit hard to see through as you say. Thank you too Robin. I'll get the filter changed out first after siphoning out the fuel tank today and putting...

    Water in tank/fuel filter of Kioti CK35.

    Thanks dfkrug, Minnesota Eric, and Epic Contributor for your advice above. I guess I'll have to try and suction the tank dry, and then remove it to get any remaining water out. The fuel filter looks like the bottom half should unscrew somehow so it innards can come out to be replaced if...

    Water in tank/fuel filter of Kioti CK35.

    I think I have water in the line which has caused my Kioti CK35 to stall out and not restart. How do I go about draining the tank of diesel, and draining out the fuel filter? I didn't see a drain plug on the tank on first inspection and the fuel lines appear to be coming out near the side and...

    Grapple hydraulics install

    I purchased a small grapple for my first tractor, a Kioti CK35, this past Fall and want to install it for use this Spring. I've plenty of experience with plumbing but little with hydraulics, so please pardon any dumb or dumber questions here. The grapple is only for occasional use on my ten...

    How high to set rotary mower?

    I live in western Virginia, have a new Rhino 160 rotary mower (bush hog) to be used with my Kioti CK35 to clear five acres of pasture that hasn't been mowed for at least ten years. There are lots of small cedars and wild blackberry brambles. How high should I be mowing, would you estimate, for...

    Which Woods box blade for CK35?

    I recently purchased a new 34 hp Kioti CK35 HST tractor and a Rhino 160 rotary cutter. I have been researching box blades. I am wondering if it would be able to utilize a 72" Woods medium duty BSM72 box blade. It weighs 680 lbs but is rated for use by a 40-60 hp tractor. Or should I go with...

    What model Kioti would you recommend?

    I am looking to buy a new Kioti tractor. I could use some advice about what model you'd think would suit our needs, as follows. We have ten acres of land in western Virginia, about half wooded half pasture. We have a small orchard of about fifteen different fruit trees on part of that pasture...

    L3700 Bottom Plow

    I just learned I should use a bottom plow to turn over four acres of clay soil, prior to discing it for replanting in grass. Pardon my ignorance, but would an L3700 be up to this kind of plowing, and if so what type of bottom plow should I get? I think there are singles or doubles maybe. Mike

Suggestions on implements to do the jobs would be appreciated too. Thanks. 1. Clear and replant in grass four...
