    Grapple Recommendations

    I ordered the MTL a few hours ago. The 72" is supposedly in stock, I'm afraid what I'll be told when I call though lol. It does look to have pretty decent construction and the price cannot be beat. Looks heavy duty, as you said the pins look like all greaseable with fittings etc. I'll update the...

    Grapple Recommendations

    This is a really good point. I was planning the grapple purchase like I would a bucket or rear blade - to cover the tires - but I don't need that in a grapple. I'm going to go with a 72". This saves some weight and also probably helps resale as a 72" would be more common.

    Grapple Recommendations

    I think I might try an MTL. It actually looks like fairly good construction for the money. Reading the reviews of MTL, it definitely looks like it may be an interesting order process though.

    Grapple Recommendations

    I am looking for a grapple for my Kioti RX7320, which is rated for 3300lbs lift at the pins to full height. I am primarily looking to move logs that tree services drop off, but would also like to do it for some mild clearing, occasional concrete chunk pickup, larger rock piles, etc. I am...

    Pressure washer with suction?

    I don't think there are any suction pressure washers, you will need a pump. I don't believe simple gravity fed from a few feet is sufficient for all pressure washers. I would use a separate low pressure pump.

    I can get pictures off my tractor tomorrow.

    WoodMaxx Flail - Early Issues

    I had a Woodmaxx with a few issues. The chrome shafts looked too small and actually drooped when they had to hold up the mower. Woodmaxx didn’t bother responding to them. So I wrote a slightly negative review, which Woodmaxx promptly removed from their site. Seems like a crappy company. The...

    Tractor Parts Yesterday

    RickB is right - not a single part returned from a Deere dealership via Google, and that doesn’t look like any Deere part number I’ve ever seen. Appears it’s a kit made by Steiner. That doesn’t mean you didn’t buy it from a Deere dealership - just that it’s not a Deere product. If you would...

    8' snow blower for 70hp tractor?

    I'm looking for a lighter duty snow blower for my RX7320. It seems that an 84" blower would JUST cover the tracks, but most of the 96" blowers I see are double auger and set up for 90hp+ tractors. Cost is also a factor. Most of my work involves plowing with the front blade, including the heavy...

    RX7320 hydraulic flow at ports?

    Anyone have an idea of how much hydraulic flow I could expect from both the factory 3rd function valve, as well as the rear remotes? Obviously there's a "19.2gpm pump", and being stationary and a power shuttle there wouldn't be anything else using it when the post hole auger would be on, but how...

    2 New attachments: trailer hitch and carry all

    For the carry all, I had the perfect material - a new stick of 4x4x3/8" angle, 1/2"x3" bar, some leftover 4"x3" tube from when I planned on converting my L3650 to SSQA, and a C channel drop to round things out. I went with 48" long "forks", so 44" of usable length. It's basically an upsized...

    2 New attachments: trailer hitch and carry all

    2 new Cat 2 attachments! I already have a carry all for my 1025R, but the step up to the RX7320 means it's no longer "good enough". Despite having pallet forks for both tractors, I still find it very handy to have when the loader's not on or for doing other tasks. In addition, I use the big...

    RX7320 3rd Function

    So, weirdly my factory 3rd function doesn’t look like anyone else’s here. New design already? The loader bracket is now orange and looks better IMO. But instead of it being hidden on the side, I have a fairly large bracket that says Kioti with the valve behind it. Odd!

    Kioti NX HST vs RX Power Shuttle - purchase decision

    I sold my NX6010 last month as it was a few years old, and I was ready for a brand new machine. I also only need it for the business now, and there just wasn't an easy way to legally "purchase" a personal machine right for your own business, so selling and the business buying a new one made a...

    Messicks Turf vs R4 Tire Tests

    I saw that recently Messicks published another R4 vs Turf comparison, this time on slush/ice conditions, and found it pretty interesting. Tested | Turf vs R4 snow traction - YouTube I have R4s on my Kioti as I had planned on using it for serious dirt work/snow plowing, and chose to try turfs...
