    Tires  Sheared valve stem

    Hey guys, while doing some work this weekend my 3pth stabilizer came loose and went into my rear rim and sheared my valve stem off. It is a brass valve which has the adapter to fill tire with fluid. Is there anyway to replace it without taking the tire off and breaking it down? I do not have...

    Missing bolt??

    As I was cleaning some snow off my tractor this week I noticed one of the bolts that hold the cylinder and zerk in place was missing. Had to snowmobile to my tractor and didn't have a wrench to take another off for size comparison. Does anyone know the size and length of these??

    Fel rpm

    Hey guys I've been digging gravel in my pit and was wondering what rpm is the best to run at. I did have the throttle low as I could go but stall occasionally when I get a big scoop. So I tried upping it to around 1600 it's a little jerky when releasing the clutch just wanted to see what others do.

    Getting fed up with kioti

    Today towards the end of the day I was using my bb and heard a noise looked back to see oil spraying from the back of the tractor. I stopped, shut the tractor off to see where it was coming from. At first I thought I blew a line, further investigation I found a leak on the loader control side...

    Rebuild hydraulic pump

    I am new to hydraulics and I currently have a f550 with a dump bed. The pump seems to be getting a little played out and wondering how difficult it is to clean and rebuild it possibly. Is it worth my time and money or should I just buy a new pump??

    Skid plate

    Has anyone built their own skid plate or is there one you can buy for the dk 40. It seem where all the hydraulics connect is susceptible to roots branches, etc...tearing them off or damage of some sort.

    50 hr service

    Ok I've read so much on the 50 service on here I'm confused. My manual says only to change the hydraulic filter not the oil, but it seems some guys change both. I'm thinking i won't just do as the manual says because it looks like a PITA and expensive to do. Just want to see what the consensus...

    Driving a distance

    Just moved my tractor today from my woodlot, approximately 50 kms. It took 2 hrs and 40 min. Thought that I made good time kept the rpms around 2200. I was in the highest gear the whole way.

    Fel flattens tires

    I've been doing some loader work in a pit and when I get a good load in my bucket the front tires almost look like they are flat. I checked them with nothing in the bucket and they seemed to be ok. Could I be overfilling my bucket??

    I just put the toothbar on the bucket works a lot sweeter. Still a bit rough on the tractor digging in real Stoney gravel but my technique is getting better. Heres a pic of my hour and a half work.

    Tooth bar

    Hey guys o just got a 72 inch toothbar for my bucket. It's on a dk40, it looks like I have to drill two holes on each side to bolt it on. I just wanted to make sure that's how it's done. I thought it would bolt down through the holes along the front edge of the bucket but not with this design...

    Tool box on BB

    I was just wondering if anyone has made a tool box on their bb for chains Grab hooks etc...I was thinking of welding some 1/4 inch angle iron on and attaching the box to it. If anyone has done this how high above the scraper blade is a good height.
