New CK 35 HST

Smittyb · Jan 3, 2015

Well, with the onset of tier IV looming, I broke down and bought a new CK 35HST. I have not taken delivery yet, as the dealer is waiting for it to come in. Using my local dealer, I got tractor, FEL, 5' light duty mower, and 5' box blade for 21,590, and 50 hour service covered.
How do you think I did?

Pretty well considering that's about what I paid for mine with tractor and loader only. But I thought tier 4 kicked in last year (2014) so 2013 would be the last year for tier 3. If you have a 2014 I think unfortunately it will be tier 4. Mine is a '13 and tier 3.

I have the same tractor as you and like it a lot. You will be happy with it. And Welcome to the Pack!

I think there are still some new Tier 3 Kioti's floating around. I'm sure there getting top dollar for them now.

I have a ck35 hst question. I'm about to buy one from a dealership and I wanted 2 sets of remotes on the back. He said you can't put 2 sets of remotes on the back of a ck35, one is all you can get. Does that sound right?

Literature all says you can have a 2nd valve on the Ck35hst. I believe you can only get one on the CK20S.

I would only buy one, and put the electric/hydraulic valves like what Brian sells on the back so i could have up to 4 valves on the back all controlled by the one OEM valve control . Take a look here. This is a stackable expandable solution for up to 4 valves.

James, I don't understand how you control 4 values with one controller. How do you tell it which hose to send the fluid through.

You have an electrical switch to control the electrical solenoid you select with the switch, it will re-direct the fluid out of the correct valve port. The control of the flow rate is done by your original OEM valve. This valve bank is hooked up to your original valve in series.

You can absolutely put 2 valves on the CK35. The manual says so, there are slots on the operator station for 2, and room and mounts on the back for 2. Your dealer is wrong.

Smitty, excellent choice, they will all soon be gone. Good luck with it I'm sure it will serve you well.

Kurt, I have an A and B remote on my ck35hst. I think the dealer is calling this one set. There is an A-N-B lever right side of seat. I love the idea of those stackable valve blocks. Looks like a simple install, not much hydro plumbing and only an electrical switch to run.
