Last night I noticed a hydraulic leak under the forward/reverse pedals of my NX with 135 hours. A steady drip of a couple a second. Anyone have this before and how involved could it be?


Thanks in advance

Take a look at the hoses between the loader joystick valve and the bulkhead quick connectors. The hoses run under the right floor board, right were the forward and reverse pedals move under the floor. The pedals may have worn one of the hydraulic hoses over time. Not a big job to change out a hose.

Hope this helps.

Any resolution on this issue? We all like to learn from other's experiences---good or bad! :)

Will get it in the garage tomorrow and let you know.

Finally got it in garage. Turns out a hydraulic hose from loader chafed through in one spot and was working on another spot on same line. I'm figuring it was dealer prep failing to route the line correctly or not putting any protector between the line and 2 metal parts of the frame. Curious to know if anyone else has this issue or if other tractors have wire loom type protectors in these type locations. It was one of the 4 lines (yellow on mine) bundled from the loader back. It was a sunuvagun getting the nut loose on the loader end. Some gorilla tightened the nut so hard the male end on the bracket side belled and fought me every 1/16 of a turn. Had the hose made locally but need to order a new fitting so it will go back together easy. Going to check all my lines to be sure they're routed correctly.

Are you talking about the lines that bend down right under the front edge of the cab? I can't believe that this would still be an issue in 2019: many folks have noted Kioti scrimping on the lines and or not including some sort of protective cover (as many folks have- though I have not [and after 425hrs I'm still fine, which is why I've left things as they are]) to deal with chaffing issues.

My loader hoses were touching the cab. I put some hard plastic around the lines where they were touching. Hopefully won't have any problems.

Went to a hydraulic shop and bought 20' of spiral wrap and installed on all lines.
Yes 2017 era NX and the flippin 4 hoses running underneath the floorboard on the right going to the valves are tight rubbing against the floorboard.
Good grief Kioti another 2cm of hose would not send you to the poor house. Oh to add insult to all this there are oil lines running parallel to the frame where a genius thought a spring hose protector would be grand. Except the hoses rub up against the frame because the spring wrap just opens up.
I could go on with the QC issues here but need to save the planet and conserve electrons......heh

Yep, them ones, like MIE said.

If its a factory issue the dealer could easily add a protector of some sort. I picked up that woven kevlar tube to put over the line.

Does anyone have a parts list file for a 2018 NX5010? Trying to order parts online but they don't have breakdown for an NX.
