I sold my house and my Kioti DK40SE along with it. Moved to a smaller property (sloping 2 acres) and got older along the way. I'm planning landscaping and an orchard. I'd like advice on what the Avant 528 can and can't (or shouldn't) do. I would get a 4 in 1 bucket, forks, auger, and flail...

The sun visor no longer works. I'm not actually sure how it's supposed to work or where to get parts. Does the metal bar turn in the visor or does the visor rod turn in the plastic clip/sleeve? I can't find anywhere that I can get replacement clips/sleeves. The antenna also broke from something...

Please forgive what must be second nature to many. My 10 year old DK40SE with about 380 hours is squealing on startup. It's gotten worse and is time to fix. I'm presuming it's the belt. It's coming from the front, it goes away when warmed up - although taking longer now. With only 380 hours, I...

I just took off my front end snow blower from my DK40 and am attempting to hook up my front end loader. I've been doing this for about 9 years, and I've never had an issue. I've: moved the tractor in place so the arms are aligned hooked up (twice) the 4 hoses and they are color coded matched...

I changed out all the bulbs on my DK40SE (only one headlamp was left working). When done, I found that the two rear work lights won't work. I replaced them (and the fronts) with NAPA BP1235/H3-N. Since the front work lights work fine, my guess is that the cab switch is bad. However, the cab...

I've got a DK40se and when I replaced my fuel filter, I stupidly forget to unscrew the bleeding bolt when cranking in the ON position. I presume the tractor won't start because there is fuel in the injector lines. I was able to access one of the injector nuts with a regular wrench and got a bit...

I have a DK40 OEM Front Mount Snowblower and broke the fan shear pin - a rock got wedged in. The manual lists it as an M8 x 1.25 x 35 gr. 6.6. There is only one place on the whole web which references a grade 6.6 bolt - this post on tractorbynet where the user Chilly807 says that Amazing that...

This is a case of having done the work and wondering if I need to do it over correctly... I replaced a back block heater. The heater screws into a sleeve which slides into the tractor block. When I installed the new heater, I screwed the heater to the sleeve in the shop using Teflon tape...

I have a 2014 DK40 which has died due to low battery twice this year - once in the spring and just now, both after a month of no activity. The last time there was no crank and I had to replace the start relay along with charging the battery to get it going. This time, I am getting the dash...

2 year old DK40 - hadn't used it in about a month. Turn key, click, no crank / starter. Seemed like the dash lights were flickering when trying to start. Charged battery off truck for an hour. Dash lights on solid bright, but still no starter. Ideas? The service manual lists what the fuses do...

So I found another part of my tractor while using the backhoe. Guess I'm glad I spotted it... I wonder about all the parts that come off I never know about. Anyway, anyone know where this might go? It is obviously a plug for something. Thanks for the input.

I spent a couple of hours today getting stumps out and found this 4" u-bolt on the ground where I was working. I can't imagine what else it could have come off of besides the tractor or backhoe, but I also have no clue where a u-bolt would be used. Any ideas?

So I fired up my new Ranking Rotary Cutter and as I finished using it (about an hour or so), it dawned on me that I didn't check to see if the dealer had put oil in the gear box. Sure enough it was dry. I've read the previous post on this Bush hog, no gear oil in box! and now my user's manual...

I have the identical problem that is in this post here on a DK40SE Cab. The OP never got back to update on the fix, if there ever was one (I promise to post back once it is fixed!). Anyway, tractor arrived a week or so ago from the dealer, and I finally took off the backhoe and put on the Post...

My new Kioti DK40SE HST cab arrived last Wednesday and it is my first tractor. Lots to learn and get used to. A couple of things don't seem quite right. The gear lever often does not switch gears easily from Neutral into Medium. When the tractor first starts, it will go into Medium easy...

I find it odd that 12000 lb electric winches (mine is a Harbor Freight) come with 3/8" aircraft cable that, although they have a Breaking Strength of 14400 lb, have a Working Load of 2880 lb. The definition of Working Load Limit is "the maximum load that includes mass or force, that should...

I have a Kioti DK40SE Cab and want to drag downed trees (2 foot maximum diameter) to the logging road. I don't want to spend the money on a farmi and really don't want a 3 pt hitch attachment solution as I will have a Wallenstein chipper installed on the 3 pt and plan on chipping on site. I was...

I've just placed an order for a Kioti DK40 SE HST Cab. The dealer quoted for the Rankin forks which are 42" and rated at 2250 lbs for $799. Idaho Implement sells two I can pick up (no shipping): 48" 3,700 lbs. Edge Skid Steer Pallet Forks - $643.56 48" 5,500 lbs. Heavy Duty Skid Steer Pallet...

I've done all this research and just about settled on buying a new DK40SE HST Cab (thanks to everyone for their input). I am realizing that I probably am not able to legally tow it with r4 filled tires and loader using my GMC Sierra 1500 (v8 3.73 Axel ratio and heavy duty towing package) - not...

First off, I started a post looking at the JD 3520 CAB and with the advice I've received on this forum, I'm pretty convinced the DK40 SE HST CAB is a better machine and the way to go. Seemed better to start a new thread for the DK 40 quote I just got. I was quoted: Cab plus loader (w/r4 tires)...

Looking for some advice on possible purchase of a JD 3520 Cab My situation: 27 mostly wooded acres, some steep slopes 500' of gravel driveway (sloped w/ 90 degree bend) and 1000' of sloped gravel road. Lots of snow No horses or farm Big garden Work a full time job - just a weekend and summer...
