I just brought my CK3510 home and have used it some. I love the linked pedals. Especially coming from a shuttle shift tractor. It made the transition much easier.

Yes. Nice video. I want this on my 2610. I wonder if its easy user installable? Plug and play sort of? Anyone done it?
Like you, I operate a constant level above idle. So like that this also allows that. In fact my dealer recommended operating at all times at least about 2000 rpm for eliminating carbon build up and for the health of the engine. As mine is a non tier 4 motor. So I would probably do as you do and operate near there and allow the linked pedal to do the rest. However would not even engage it when I was bush hogging and just run at the higher 2400 rpm all the time doing that kind of work. In my case 2400 rpm is essentially full throttle.
Also note how you also forget to take your brake off. I wish I had a nickel for every time Ive done that! LOL...
Thanks for taking the time for making and sharing the video

I installed the linked pedal kit on my CK2610, it works as advertised. It took me a few hours, but I took my time and am admittedly kind of ****... There are a LOT of small pieces and parts, clips, washers, linkage pieces, etc. But if you go slow and follow the directions it's not too bad. I wish I took pics during the install. The only part I didn't do was taking the steering wheel off. I fought with the puller a bit and gave up. I think this slowed me down a little. Here are the "after" pics:

i got it on my CK3510 - salesman said it's a PITA sorta thing to install - not difficult, but as Nick H says, tedious. So I let them do it.
I got cruise, link pedal, 2 rear remotes, mirror, horn, filled tires, floor mat, arm rest - $630. I did the mirror and armrest install, they did the rest.
Took me about a week to get a toolbox on there, still don't have the LED's installed. Do have 28+ hours in 10 days - so good thing I let them do it!
Pallet forks arrive tomorrow then a whole new round of tasks can be tackled!

Do you have the instructions for adjusting the Linked Pedals? My son got it dealer installed on his CK2610 and in reverse the RPM's only go up to 1900. It's a bit slow in reverse. Not about to ask the dealer after the ordeal he with through with them.
That is the only real frustrating part, there are no instructions for adjustment... I just sort of eyeballed it, and it worked great in forward. Since the throttle is fully mechanical on the 2610's adjustment is easy. I adjusted the cable so that the lift arm gets maximum travel. Then I adjusted the nut on the black throttle mechanism so that the full range of the pedal lever moves the throttle mechanism. It's kind of confusing in text, and the directions stunk, so I made this quick drawing. Hopefully it makes more sense. I made up the terminology... haha.
Long story short: Since the reverse pedal has a much shorter throw than the forward pedal, it cannot move the throttle linkage as far as the forward one... Net result is lower rpm's (and speed) in reverse. I haven't played with adjusting the stop screws on the pedals themselves (underside of the deck), I don't know if you can adjust the reverse pedal screw enough to increase the linked RPM's.
Sorry for the novel, hope this helps!

Thanks Nick! That's most likely more help than we would get from the dealer. Do you know what your max RPM's is when using the linked pedals in reverse? My son said his maxes out at 2550 in forward with the linked pedals and using the hand throttle.
