Hello guys, it's been a long time since I posted but I'm having a hydraulic pto problem with my 2005 DK 35. Was tilling food plots and moved from one plot to another. I dropped the tiller into the soil and turned on the pto and nothing happened. I lifted the tiller up slightly and the pto...

After the tractor sits for a few days, turning the ignition switch fails to send power to the relays. Playing with it (ie - jiggling and switching on and off )improves the connections and it will eventually operate normally - except by jiggling, I can still find a dead spot that shuts down the...

What's the going price for a new 44 inch Kioti Tiller? Thanks

It's ground prep time of the year and my DK35 won't start (2005 with 550 hours). I was discing last evening for several hours, came back to the barn and shut her off. 5 minutes later I went to start up again and just a click at the solenoid. When I get home from work today, I will clean and...

Sorry wrong thread

Hello all, I have an occaision to trailer my DK 35, Filled R4's, 1450 FEL, and Rhino 75 backhoe and I am trying to determine weight so that I can rent the appropriate trailer (and also determine if my Chevy 1/2 ton will pull it safely). At this point I know the tractor is a hair under 3400...

I have investigated 2 separate fatalities in the last 4 years at landscape/nursery supply centers where loaders were equipped with material buckets to load mulch, but were also used for topsoil. Both operators accelerated out of the topsoil pile in reverse with the loaded bucket raised which...

OK - I finally settled on and purchased an 05 DK 35 with 350 hours on it and a 1450 front end loader. I played with it a little bit this weekend and I believe I will be well satisfied with it. I havn't put the 2 bottom plow on it yet, but I don't anticipate problems. I will be picking up a...

Looks like I am in the process of buying a 2005 DK35 with a 1450 loader. Any problems with this loader? I think I saw something about weak bucket rollback? What does that mean?

I understand Kioti has a CK35 out for 07. The dealer does not have specs on them yet - does anybody know anything about them or where I can find specs. This tractor is not on their webpage yet. Also, I am down to choosing between a Kubota L3430 or a Kioti (either CK or DK 35). Tell me why I...

Greetings everyone - I just found this site and it looks like my internet addiction isn't going to be helped any:D . Great site with lots of helpful information. I just got a quote of 16,900 for a new L3430 DT with a 513 loader and Ag tires. Does this sound about right. It will be replacing...
