That looks very nice. I like their take on putting the little wedge feet at the bottom back so it will stand itself up easier. Nice touch. It definitely does need something welded in front of those fittings on either side, but the rest of the protection channel is nice. That's going to be a...

Awesom! That will make doing what you need way easier than anything smaller.

For what you said you would use it for, the CK all day every day and twice on Sunday. You'll regret the lack of capacity on all the specs of the CX almost immediately.

5 acres? CX. Moving 500lb bales? CX. Rule #1 buy as much tractor as you can afford and will maneuver easily in the spaces you need to get in. You mentioned wanting the front end loader to be useful. There's only one rule for that, go as big as you can there's no such thing as too much lift...

1) made two orders during the covid time frame for our then new tractor. Wicked 55 Grapple, Extreme duty box blade, 2500lb forks. (EDIT: Also got one of their digging buckets with the wicked tooth bar on it... at the time and with the cost of everything else and shipping it was only an extra...

Yes, as part of our splitting system we put a small table on the far side from the operator that's at the bottom of a rolling conveyor. That helps protect the engine from debris falling. It's based on what these guys did in this video, same general setup as this: I load the log rack with...

We got the Champion 27ton from HD about a year ago. Have split several cord so far. Did a lot of research on affordable splitters before buying. It's enough to split a pretty large log when you need to, and it has a fast enough cycle time (11 sec) you don't wait all day for the cylinder to...

You've got 10 acres. Get the SE with the rear hydraulics and options package. As others have said it will never be cheaper than at purchase time. And make sure the front remote system is put on at the dealer. You'll will want it sooner or later. Probably sooner for a grapple or front auger...

Bingo. Tractor and 1 ton mini plus a large list of implements for both all in for less than the cost of just a decent used skid only. Our property could use more, but 4x the cost isn't in the cards right now.

A real shame, I found this thread a couple of days ago after putting my EA grapple, box blade and forks through a massive amount of work. EA's stuff is super solid and we're totally satisfied with all of it. Moved who knows how many tons of tree debris and stumps and everything was rock solid...

How about the 2 HST gear ranges? You said that was your biggest concern. Happy with it? On our CK4010 (same frame as CK2610/CK2620) The 3 speed ranges cover everything about perfect.

Thank you Drawthree, all those part numbers worked perfectly. Hydraulic filter is on and working, no leaks yet after a test run. Quick question can't remember if I've seen it answered before: the Typhon type machines have a glass gauge on the hydraulic tank (left side hyd tank mount) that's...

Just finished installing two 7" radiator fans, one on each side of the engine. Those puppies are loud and move some air. $14 each. Also fixed some pure Chinesium wiring. Before anyone freaks out about general quality: the wiring for everything not cab related was just fine, but the cab and...

Interesting. The very first thing I did with our Typhon copycat when we got it to was relocate the choke from the front housing panel back up to horizontal next to the ignition switch. We have the full glass cab on ours and because of the way the cab fits, there is NO way to remove the floor...

I just ordered the fittings from a random site I found called onehydraulics.com. You can get both fittings there for about $20 total plus $15 shipping. Better by far than the $35-$50+ the major sites want for the 5307L-15-08.

Th Thanks for that! Just ordered the parts.

We have a Kioti CK4010SE HST and are insanely pleased with it. It gets 33hp to the pto in the hydrostatic model which is a lot for it's size. We did that to be able to run a good size wood chipper which it does very well. It lifts the whole 1600 lbs+ on the loader that it's rated to. We move...

That's a good part of what drove the decision for us. It would be only Ten, 2 day rentals for a tiny unit from Home Depot and you could have bought it. And that doesn't include any of the time, gas, trailering, etc. We have at least 3 jobs just for spring that we need to do. And maybe 2 more...

Or Mobil Delvac Tractor Hydraulic Fluid. It's also J20C.

Like Tropical Jack above, we have a Woodmaxx 8" chipper and in my case 30+ PTO HP. But it's close enough to provide some advice to you at 20 PTO HP. Any hydraulic infeed chipper that will let you control or reverse the infeed speed will let you chip anything your HP will allow. My experience...

I doubt you'll find it. I've never seen it as an available part. When we got the initial walk through on the tractor from the dealer they told us exactly what was up with it. The dash layouts are the same for ALL Kioti's tractors so there's no missing option or anything like that. Just...

We have the CK4010HST SE. Don't regret it one bit, it makes hooking up everything with the quick hitch even easier... and now I can't wait to try the box blade with it when spring comes. If you have the CK4010HST and the rear remotes are already there all you need is this...

I'd love to have a copy of that pdf. Thanks!

What about just getting a low flow SSQA hydraulic front mount auger? It'll be a million times more pleasant to use anyway. Something like this: https://www.landpride.com/products/647/SA20-Series-Post-Hole-Digger

To fully explain it: The Speeco Cat 1 is TRUE Cat 1... the hooks are sized only for small CAT1 pins. They will NOT take a Cat 2 pin. This is usually not an issue on subcompact tractor implements and may not be an issue on the vast majority of implements up to Compact tractor size but some few...

This is essentially correct. Once you've dealt with freight a few times you start to figure out the game. If you need something brought to your residential address and you don't already have an effective forklift device that can get it off the truck, you MUST specify lift-gate service for...

We have a CK4010SE. Same tractor and loader pretty much. Either one is fine. The "standard" already exceeds your maximum lift capacity. Each fork can handle more than your tractor can lift even a couple of inches off the ground. I'd just decide by whether the machined forks are something...

One of the major reasons we got our Wicked 55 was to have a light strong grapple that would stack 8' cut log sections without constantly bending tines. It'll make neat piles all day long. I'm pretty convinced the grapple is tougher than the Kioti 4010. I have to be more careful of the...

Those look perfect for a BX.

Sorry, could have been slightly more clear. Yes, there is an add-on backrest for the Artillian and it's a nice add-on, but that will add weight as well. At that point the total weight of the Artillian even with shorter 36" fork tines will probably meet or exceed both the weight AND price of...

The lightest 3000lb rated fork frame I've seen is the Artillian at 99lbs (without fork tines). https://www.artillian.com/product/3000-lb-ssqa-pallet-fork-frame/ You have to source your own tines, which is inconvenient but If you go with class II 36" forks those can be 50lbs or less bringing...

The quick hitch has worked out perfectly for us. Harbor Freight Quick Hitch ($140): https://www.harborfreight.com/3-point-quick-hitch-27-3-16-inch-clearance-97214.html Replacement top hook for it, YOU NEED THIS. It completely fixes the hookup issue that makes it not work. ($40)...

You can also just Amazon the things: quick hitch bushing kit These also have the top link bushings included. The only issue I've had with the generic kits is sometimes you need to take a drill bit one size larger than the holes to make the roll pins actually go through. Just depends on luck...

I have those EA 2200lb forks. They're pretty much perfect on our kioti 4010SE, which is similar specs on the loader to the Kubota L series you have. I had actually purchased them to use on a L3901 Kubota before changing tractors mid purchase. They are as light as you can get for how stout...

Adding to the posts by 2manyrocks, with a L2501 I think you're between saving some bucks with the MTL RG7 at $1700, it gives you 60" width but it weighs 530lbs. Or the EA Wicked 55", which weighs only 240lbs yet can probably take the most abuse at $2500. The 3rd option is the Landpride SGC0660...

I think you took a good approach. Lets just say those types of issues and others aren't limited to just your area. We also had a (VERY) bad experience with attempting to buy a Kubota and ended up with a Kioti. It's nice. Went through the same adjustment of attitude you did. It was less...

If someone has the CK10SE series manuals would you please let me know?

lifepo4 lithium batteries are far far safer than traditional lithium batteries. You can find some videos of people doing puncture tests of lifepo4 and yes you can get a big one to start burning. But that is true of ANY large battery that stores energy. There is an unavoidable release of...
