I was walking by my CK30 the other day and heard a clicking sound coming from it. The key was not in the ignition and it had been sitting for a week or so since I last used it. It is an outside tractor since I don't have a garage or shed to put it in. I pulled the four way flasher switch out...

I haven't been around this board for a year or so and things go to snot. Wallace Tractors is not a Kioti dealership anymore !?!?!?!? I don't know what to make of it. Anyway. The seat on my CK30 is falling apart. First a part on the seat suspension came apart so my brother and I zipped tied...

A big thank you to Kioti and Rick Wallace! Kioti sent out new loader arms for my CK30 and Jennings Equipment in Puyallup put them on under warranty! It's been a long road because the original dealership PENINSULA FEED & POWER EQUIPMENT would not help me at all when I bought the tractor used...

I am going to put in a fence so I went to neighbor A to ask about borrowing his post hole auger/digger. He said sure but it actually belongs to neighbor B. Neighbor A has just had it for the last 5 years or so. Anyway I ask neighbor B to use his post hole digger. He says sure no problem...

I am usually able to break the bead on motorcycle tires in a vise but this one was too big. My wife had to lower the loader so I could make sure I got the wheel as close to the loader as I could without catching the edge of the rim.

When I bought my used CK30 the previous owner warned me that the fuel bowls are fragile and prone to cracking. Fortunately I ordered a new bowl when I ordered a filter set from Wallace Tractor. I checked out the fuel bowl when I replaced the filter about 25 hours ago. It appeared fine back...

I am replacing the seals in the bevel gear case on the left front axle on my Kioti CK30. It leaks. I have to invest in a set of good snap ring pliers. See post in Parts/Repairs forum. I am cruising along pretty good until I get to the final part I have to take apart. It is called the...

I am replacing seals in the front axle of my Kioti CK30. I am trying to get the snap rings out. They are the largest snap rings I have ever tried to work with. My cheapo Harbor Freight snap ring pliers bent and broke in no time. I went to the local auto parts store and bought another set...

My neighbor stopped by the other day to tell me his BX22 wouldn't start and ask if I had any ideas. I told him to post the problem here and see what ideas you guys could come up with. He had problems getting a user name in a timely manner so he just searched and read old posts. The old posts...

When I bought my CK30 with about 350 hours on it the front axle was really low on gear oil. I didn't think much of it since any oil I saw I attributed to the leaking oil cooler. Today I somehow stripped the tie rod end nut off of the threaded bolt on part and the tie rod popped off. I am...

When I bought my CK30 the grey cowling in front of the battery was broken. The previous owner said he had it around somewhere but never came up with it. I bought a new one and the screen from Wallace Tractors. I can't get the screen to stay on those little plastic pegs by friction. Is there...

I had to burn a pile of stumps and branches today. they have been accumulating since I sold my Case 580. Nan wasn't very happy with me buying a "new" used tractor. But after today I don't think I'll hear any complaints. She really likes how easy the hst is to use. Nan marveled at the fact...

It looks like my CK30 has a leak in the hydraulic cooler. Its between the radiator and the battery. I don't see why this would develop a leak. Are they repairable or do I need to get a new one? It's about a drop every ten seconds. Today is the first day I have actually got to use it. I...

I'm trying to figure out which of the three holes to use on the tractor for the top link for my box blade. I have a CK30hst and a 5 1/2 foot woods box blade. I looked in the CK30 owners manual and it referred to a non-existant table in the hydraulics section. Does anybody have any sugestions...

I took the backhoe off of my CK30 today so I could remove a broken bolt for the front end loader support box. I got the backhoe off and unhooked the hydraulic lines. I had turned the tractor off to disconect the hydraulic lines. When I tried to start the tractor again it ran for about 5...

I am thinking about buying a new set of loader arms with torque tube for the used CK30 I just bought. The torque tube has substantial cracks and the tractor is only one year old. I can get the replacement arms and torque tube for about $1,000. The dealer got the replacement arms in last...

What is the torque setting to use on the bearing box to frame bolts on a KL130? The owners manual has a chart with the size of bolt. I don't know from M?? bolt size. I'm used to a Chiltons Haynes or Clymers or most other shop manuals that tell you what the torque is supposed to be for each...

I am going to look at a CK30 tomorrow. It's a year old with a Kioti fel and bh and about 350 hours on the meter. The owner said he has worked it hard but is impresssed with it. He said he is selling it to get a DK45. I asked him about the cracking around the fel inspection plate. He said a...

I am thinking of bidding on a L35 at an auction. But it doesn't have a backhoe on it. I called Woods and they said they do not make a frame mount backhoe for this tractor. Just a 3 point which I am not considering. I called the local Kubota dealer. They said they didn't know if they could...

Does Kioti plan on making a ck tlb like the 3054xs tlb? The 3054xs is just about perfect for me but I am afraid of obsolescence. Curved loaders and backhoes would be nice too. I was looking at the woods loaders and backhoes but I like the backhoe being close in and the flip seat that the...
