    What's leaking on my Kioti DK40 HST?

    Basically the title. Ran the tractor yesterday, no issues. Went out to start it this morning and found this leak underneath it. Has not occurred before that I know of. Where should I start looking?

    Unhooked hydraulic top link, now it won't work when hooked back up

    Never mind, the problem was that one of the couplers was not fully connected although it looked like it was. I'll leave this up in case there's some other bonehead like me who needs something to check.

    Unhooked hydraulic top link, now it won't work when hooked back up

    Title pretty much says it all. I took off my hydraulic top link that is part of my top n tilt kit. Now that I'm ready to use it again, I put it back on but it won't extend or retract. What did I do wrong? I've done this before and there was no problem.

    Bought a CT2025

    Pics: Bobcat 225 - Album on Imgur Just got a new CT2025 this week. I'd been looking for a tractor about this size for a while on the used market, but nothing came up for a reasonable price. I started looking at new tractors including Kubota, John Deere, Mahindra, and Kioti. Everything near me...

    Width of CT2025 with R4 tires?

    Anybody know this offhand? The specs online say 64" which may well be true. However, I have a Kioti DK40 that measures 70" from outside to outside of its R4 tires, despite the online specs saying anything between 59 and 64".

    John Deere 4105 starting problem (?ignition switch?)

    I recently began having trouble starting my 4105. I was in the field and had to shut it off, and when I tried to turn it back on I had to turn the key back and forth several times. It worked like that a few more times, and then progressed to the point that I had to push in on the key as well as...

    My poor man's brush forks

    I saw this idea on another thread here. I had some pressure treated 2x4's that I cut to size. The "forks" are screwed into the support piece that runs parallel to the bucket, then I use clamps to hold that to the bucket. For further support, the upright pieces of 2x4 inside the bucket are just...

    Ballast  4105 - Box blade size / weight

    I have a 4105 that I got a few months ago. It's been very useful so far, and I haven't had any problems. Right now all I have for ballast is my 6' light duty rotary cutter. The tires are NOT loaded (yet). It's sufficient some of the time, but it's big and unweildy. I thought about just getting a...

    FYI: Tarter 6' Cutter on Clearance at TSC

    I don't know if it was just my store or not, but today I bought a new 6' Tarter brand round back rotary cutter. Original price was $1299.99. Clearance price was $699.99! It's light duty, but I just need it for my grass pastures. It's been sitting on the lot for a couple years, but it's in...

    Strengthened bucket, added bucket chain hooks

    I took my light duty bucket from my JD 4105 with 300cx loader down to a local welding shop to have some hooks welded on the bucket. While I was there I asked them to put some straps on the side and to beef up the top of the bucket to help support while lifting with the hooks. Now I have a...

    4105 question

    Hey all. I'm looking at a used 2007 4105 in a few days. Does anyone know if the '07s are appreciably different from the brand new ones? Do they all have quick detach buckets? Thanks!

    Recommendations please

    Hi, I'm a relatively new member. I posted once when I was considering buying a new Kubota L3700SU. It turns out I wasn't quite ready to buy then. I'm getting closer now, and the more I learn about tractors, the less I know which one I should buy. My wife and I bought a 22 acre horse farm in...
