    RK37 Weight for hauling to first 50 hour service 129 miles away. I need a trailer.

    I don't think they will hold 83 gallons each. The tires on a RK37 aren't big enough to hold that much. 83 gallons total more likely, roughly 40 gallons a tire is the most I think you could put in there to cover the rim and leave an air pocket in the tire.

    Sporstman 500 H.O. Polaris Question

    Personally I'd just keep running the reliable one till it falls apart. You know it, it has served you well. Replace what needs replaced when if it breaks and rock on. The unreliable one would be good trading fodder. You might see an implement or tool or something you want that someone might...

    NX4510 starter not turning over

    I had this problem on a 2020 built NX6010. You've gone through most of it but one switch I didn't see you mention is the brakes must be locked together, there is a switch on the lever that locks the two brake pedals together. It must be in neutral. PTO off. Brake pedal pressed, weight in the...

    Brand new KIOTI dead on arrival

    Bought a Kioti CK3510SE TLB, Package w/ Trailer & Attachments

    Yes looks like a Wicked 55". I use a cheap bungie cord to hold the hoses up that I connect to the loader tube (cross bar that says Kioti in your pic). The bungie keeps them out of the way but if they get caught it will stretch / break before the hoses so I kind of see it as a fuse.

    Are you running the RPMs on the engine on up there (at least 2000 rpm or better)? Second thing, hydrostats are funky in that when you start to bog down you have to let up on the go pedal for more power - mashing it down further will stall it further. It is counterintuitive, especially if you...

    New to looking at Kioti, is the NX comparable the Grand L in Kubota?

    Doing my comparisons it looks like a NX6010 Cab matches up as a fair comparison to the Kubota GrandL 5460 Cab. The Kubota engine is 4cyl and more displacement is the only big difference I can find. Am I on the right track? Also, what does the DK6010SE compare to in Kubota? Thanks!
