Alright, I hate to sit here nitpicking at things wrong; but I just got this tractor from the dealer about a week ago. I don't want to pester the dealer to the point where they want to just screw me over on future services or anything. The day the tractor arrived seemed to mark a downward spiral of issues. The tractor arrived with a dead battery(My guess is some left the ignition on) the jumped it and its been starting fine every time since. I had a second rear remote added to the tractor, and a backhoe added used only the backhoe across 3 days ~8-9hr total on the tractor(that after they broke it in for 10hrs). I found several leaks in the hydraulic lines, one looked like it was from the drain plug. Thankfully I found out it was leaking before I damaged something bad(I think the digging shook things loose). The windshield wiper fluid bottle was cracked on top, and the cap is gone. I was reading in the backhoe manual and it said that the plate around that wiper fluid bottle is supposed to be changed if a backhoe is added, does anyone know what it should look like if it was changed vs the one that is standard? Also I was hoping for replaceable teeth on the backhoe bucket. Now I forgot to double check when I order, but Kioti site said it was standard on all their KB2485(not the end of the world). I was surprised the the backhoe control levers did not have rubber boots around them, Apparently I got the 1 out 5 versions that didn't come with them(go figures). The backhoe seat wasn't fully attached right either. It took three weeks(not that I complaining about the wait) for the toothbar for the FEL to come in; but over week later and they still had not come out to put it one the tractor. The two pins that secure the backhoe subframe to the tractor mounting bracket where ground flat on one side to slide by the subframe crossbar; This didn't seem like something that should have needed to be done. I don't know if the wrong pins where given, or someone assembled something wrong. I just feel like someone should of looked this tractor once over and make sure thing were right. Just a little quality control goes a long way. Sorry this is long winded, Comments, Tips, Thoughts are all welcomed.
P.S. The tractor is now back at the dealer gonna see what they say about a lot of these problems/concerns.
