Hello from Slovakia!

[Andy12]

Hello from a new member in the mountains of Slovakia. Kioti CK35 (2011) bought last year with 900 hrs, FEL, mid mower and backhoe. Been loitering for a while but now have few specific questions. I値l post them on the Kioti forum. Thanks for having me.

Thanks to everybody for the welcome! To those who have shown interest, here's a photo from last October installing land drainage with track on top.

Thanks for the photos. I really like the view that you have of those mountains!!! Do you have much wildlife there?

For me, this is a perfect picture. The background is awesome. What a great view. Then I get to the little things. Are your electrical poles cement? Is that the electrical service line coming onto your property?

Thank you very much for the pictures!!!

Great family picture!!!

I like it! Yes, the poles are concrete, replacements for the original wooden ones over 20 years ago I think (before our time here). That service line (380V 3 phase) runs across our property, serving us as it goes. Changed from the previous 4 lines (3 plus earth) to a single cable last year. Lot fewer outtages since they did that work in the area.

Great family picture!!!

Yes! I don't have a pic, but my son (7) is driving well, although from my lap, as he can't reach the pedals properly yet - give it another year!

The first time I saw concrete poles used commonly was in South Korea in the early 80s.

The advancements in electrical services have improved dramatically here as well. My Electrical Cooperative encourages phone calls if service goes out. I'm on a dead end line. Month or so we had a small ice storm. My power went off. I waited about 15 minutes and then called. While I was on the phone with the lady my power came back on. We both got a laugh out of it. She repeatedly said to call as soon as it goes off. I always hate to bother anyone. We rarely have power outages.
