    Problem starting my DK40

    I am hoping someone can help diagnose my starting problem on my DK40. For the last year, it has been a pain to start. Basically I have to hold the gas pedal down for about 20 seconds "after" it starts, if not it will die. In other words, it will start but not keep idling. I replaced the...

    Every winter my orchard gets too much rain and I am afraid the soggy ground will lead to root rot on my trees. Since I do not have the funds to buy a backhoe attachment for my tractor, I need another solution to dig a small drainage ditch between the rows of my fruit orchard. I was thinking...

    DK40SE having problems starting

    Need help diagnosing my problem. This is my first tractor and I am not very mechanical but would like to fix this myself before driving to the dealership. I still have 4 months before my warrantee runs out so I should be able to pick up the part free of charge. When I turn over my ignition...

    Broken tire valve stem

    I broke my back tire valve stem the other day while bush hogging. Just curious if an auto tire shop can replace the valve stem or do I need to drive down to the Kioti dealer? Also, what type of lift jack most people use to lift their tractor? I was debating whether to buy a 42" High lift farm...

    FEL quick disconnect

    I'm pretty new to tractor but I would hope to think I'm somewhat mechanically inclined. Today, I mowed about 5 acres of saplings and notice my Front end loader had problems tilting down and lifting up. When I checked the quick disconnects for the FEL, I notice two of them were disconnected. I...

    Wear and Tear on Tractor - Tiller or Plow?

    I am debating whether to buy a breaking plow/disk or a rotary tiller. My neighbor is from the old school of thought and believes that a tiller is very hard on the transmission. He believes a breaking plow followed by a disk will better preserve the longevity of the tractor. I am wanting to...

    Red Mark on the Tachometer

    As a general rule, should you run the RPM to the red mark on the tachometer when using the PTO for implements? Do you guys use difference RPM for different implements such as a tiller vs. a rotary cutter. Bush hogging in high grass vs. short grass vs. saplings. Thanks.

    HP rating for the Kioti tractor

    I was talking to my neighbor this past weekend who owns a JD 3203. He does not believe in John Deere's claim of the tractor being rated at 32 HP. He believes it rates much closer to 25 HP. I am curious if you guys feel that your Kioti HP is right on the mark when it comes to its advertised HP...

    Which tires did you buy for your Kioti

    I had a choice between Agriculture or R4 Industrial tires. I choose industrial tires because my use for the tractor is mainly for bush hogging. I am planning to do some tilling in the future, so I was stuck deciding which one I needed the most. I also felt the the agriculture tires would tear...

    Float level on Kioti

    Still kind of green (14 hrs) on my Kioti. What exactly do you use the float level for? My dealer said it was used mainly if you have hills and need your implements to float over terrain (hips and valleys). I could see me using it with a box blade but now sure why I would need it with my bush...

    Why did you buy a Kioti over other brands?

    Being new to tractors, so far I feel good about selecting a Kioti over other brands. But honestly, I don't know enough about compact tractors to know if I made the best choice. I just went with my gut and selected the best value tractor for my budget. I briefly looked at JD, Kioti, and...

    I now have 9 hours on my DK40SE and already having problem with the dump function with the FEL. Perhaps it nothing major so I am just asking for some opinions. When I go to dump (curl down) it seems to quit half way and I must move the bucket up (curl up) and then back to the dump position a...

    Why are dealers having record years

    I have visited or talked to 5 different dealerships (JD, Mahindra, Koiti). All of them refused to budge on their prices. Literally not a dime lower. Every dealer has told me they have had record sales for the past 3 years. Not sure if this is the case in every state but here in AL and S. TN...

    DK40SE Fuel Efficiency & Consumption

    Does anyone know the fuel effiency of a DK40SE w/ FEL. Mine does not have a HST. I read several post with different answers - (1-3 Gal per hour) depending on the useage of tractor. Because of this the difference, I would like to break it down in section. If you have a DK45 or similar model...

    Rotary Cutter - Woods or Rhino

    I am stuck whether to buy a 72" Woods or Rhino rotary cutter? Both are within $100 price difference. Any recommendations or opinion on both cutters? My local dealer sells both. I will mainly be using it to bush hog tall grass with 1"-2" diameter tree saplins throughout the field.

    Kioti Air Filter

    From my understanding an air filter for the Kioti 41HP engine cost about $55. This seems a bit high for something that cost about $3 to make. A friend of mine buys a car filter from auto parts store for his Yanmar. Has anyone found a similar air filter for Kioti engine at an auto parts store...

    Kioti DK40SE and DS4110 vs. Mahindra 4025

    Hello everyone, I just bought a Kioti 4WD DK40SE with their free loader (KL-401) program two days ago. Total price out the door, including sales tax was under 20K (5.5 % financing). Originally I was considering buying the Mahindra 4WD 4025 but the Kioti had more standard options and seemed to...
