When I'm scanning the 'Today's Posts' pages, at the bottom of the page 1, when I click on page '2' I'm been taken to the banner ad at the bottom of the pages website. I'm thinking the clickable space for the banner ad is overlapping the 'page 1 2 3' in the bottom right hand corner of the page???

I replaced the OEM tool box behind the seat with a short ammo box that about triples the space. Pic has original tool box on top of the newly installed box. I came up with a dry solution to carrying an emergency tow strap. My tow strap has been floating around the seat since I bought the...

The Issue: Difficult re-starting warm 2005 CK30. Engine would crank over but would fail to start when re-starting after tractor use. Leaving the tractor sit for a while, it would usually start. The Resolution: The linkage between the throttle and the shut off solenoid was binding from 5 years...

I don't believe it! Here's the advertising claim: Loader Debris Forks that actually increase the weight carrying capacity of a Front End Loader. Here's how the advertisement reads: "Clamp on Debris Forks in 52, 60 and 72-inch length makes cleaning up debris from storms or just general clean...

Is a front mounted 6 foot V-plow workable (weight wise and hydraulic wise) on a Kioti CK30 HST with loader valve. From what I'm told it's a self contained system that requires a battery hook up. Is it doable to hook the hydraulics up through the tractor loader valve? Figuring the plow would be...

Ah yes a riddle. Now the scenario, then the questions. For the past year - or better - my 2004 CK30 has had an intermittent, loss of power/erratic RPM issue. Allow me to explain. This tractor is mostly used for short bursts of time & seldom used in extended time situations(more than 30...

In my travels yesterday I noticed several Kioti tractors parked at an equipment dealers display yard that backs up to '23' northbound at 6 mile Rd. in Southeast Michigan. Aeschliman's is an established 'heavy equipment' dealer. They have been at that location as long as I can remember. I...

"Dirty Jobs" (aired on The Discovery Channel) highlighted the ingenuity of a cattle farmer that recycles>composts 'cow poo' to make 'Poo flower pots', fertilize his fields and heats his home. Very interesting what all comes out in the end. :rolleyes: Upcoming re-airing's of this 'Dirty Jobs'...

With the mild winter temperatures we're experiencing in lower Michigan the ducks are making themselves at home in the open water. In the mix of many ducks, mallard's, domestic's and mallestic's, there's one little lady with only one leg. As the group of ducks walk up from the shoreline, she'll...

This was a 'squeak it in' late fall, long weekend project. The wife requested a raised planting bed to over winter some herbs and to have a place for early spring planting. The planter had to be portable (broad definition :rolleyes: ). The planter should raise the planting surface to create a...

One of the things I enjoy about growing a large garden, besides chowing down on the veggies, is sharing the harvest with friends, family, and neighbors. I make up sort of a 'sampler pack' of fresh garden Veggie's. The smiles and hugs received are priceless.:) I finally remembered to get...

Is an air powered dump trailer do-able? I was looking at the trailers at Country Manufacturing: (http://www.countrylawn-garden.com/wagonstrailers.htm) Model 6500 They offer a hand operated hydraulic lift kit which, does not appeal to me because of the number of strokes it takes to lift the...

Where\'s this Grease Fitting? Any CK25/30HST owners recognize the location of the grease fitting pictured? (This is a test, only a test.) Don

Earlier this evening the neighbor calls........er......ah.....I got a little to close to the shoreline with the tractor (Ford 1920, 33 H.P.). "I've slid sideways and I can't get out". "Each time I try to back out I'm sliding closer to the water". I fired up the CK30, gathered my towing chain...

I had a tendency to lose the 'spring' on the 'pin' that folds the ROPS. I used a hot glue gun and laid a circle of hot glue at the base of the pin, then slid the spring back on the pin, pushed it firmly into the glue. I have not lost a spring since. Don
