That is a deal. Was that out the door? What dealer?

Have a link to that pump?

That is the best transmission of any modern washing machine even after bean counters had their way. So sad that Maytag was sold down the river. Decimated the area when they left. Nothing, absolutely nothing, built today compares to a 30+ year old dependable care Maytag. Whirlpool purposely...

EV and me, nope. Hybrids? Yes and no. Have one, not worth it in the long run. No residual valence to speak of. I would love to see the small diesel sedans and mini trucks come back. Until then, it’s me and my 3500’s.

About 15 years ago, I went with grasshopper. Definately not cheap but have served me very well. I currently still have the 2010 and 2012 725 d’s, both 61” powerfold, one with bagger. Just last fall, I bought my last mower, the grand-daddy 900D with 72” deck and grammar air seat. I have had many...

Not light bulbs, headlight housing, miscellaneous. Electrical, some hard parts. Either no longer available or incredibly expensive. Dealer alerted me to the “obsoleted by kioti.” It used to be a requirement for manufacturers to maintain parts availability for 20 years, those days are long gone.

I am aware on that, I was merely pointing out that parts are an issue(from kioti) starting at about the 10 year mark. Cylinders issue has been resolved, bit getting other parts is hope and prayer.

I am looking at a new tractor in the near future…..unless I can figure out my current issues and/or get parts. My DK45S is a 2009. Was needing seals for loader cylinders (kl1470). Obsoleted by kioti, apparently. Had incident with front lamps….can’t find the parts…now I am gun shy with overseas...

That helps.

Mega ramps are ok most times, but suck at others…..like when the load is long, too long for the main deck.

I think I would put up a poop shanty and buy a bag of lime….

I wish I had another set of rear remotes. I have 2 sets and hate having to ditch/disconnect hydraulic top link When I use the offset ditch flail. Would like to have tilt. 4 rear remotes would be perfect.

My 3 buddies taking a break from guard duty…

I’ve only been dealing with this for 6-7 years, but when I go below 90 I know it. If you research online, I believe below 70 is getting too low.

High, try 9.4. 6.1 is somewhat normal range. Always like for it to be lower though. 115 is a tolerable number when I had been running 180’s-190. Best to be lower on all accounts, how we get there? Whatever works.

I don’t necessarily care for it either, but works when everything else was not, diet, exercise, supplements and other medications. This disease runs in my family. Grandmother passed away in 1980 at 61 years old. Sister at 42. None due to weight/obesity. This disease doesn’t care how you got it...

Technically, yes, but far more maladies arise from eating just plants and grains. I’ll stick with a heavy protein diet. Works for me.

2009 Kioti DK45S FWD keeps blowing fuses. Have not had a chance to dive deeper yet.

The aluminum bodies are jokes.

Heck, I had a seal go bad in my old 84” woods so I packed the gearbox with grease….that was 7-8 years ago. Works.

I will always eat more protein than grains. We are carnivores with teeth, for a reason.

I hate moving. Been on my little acreage now for 29years, staying put unless town creeps out. Then I’d sell for big money to get away from town rules. Not that close yet, but who knows. Becoming old and cantankerous.

6.0 in and of itself is a fairly good number. High protein diet helps. Processed carbs are killers. If I even look at a potato chip, my blood sugar spikes big time. That said, ozempic is also for cardiovascular as well as diabetes. Seems to work. There are coupon programs that get the out of...

Got me too, apparently. I have a fairly good sense of humor, but I have had the unfortunate experience of having to bury my oldest son back in 2020, he was 33. Again, not something a parent should ever have to do.

A parent should never have to experience the death of a child. Deepest sympathies.

I owned a 1700 for years. Glad it is gone.

Me too.

🤮

Permits? We don‘t Need no stinking permits.

I have many saws….the doors can always get bigger!🤣🤣

Too much gov. intrusion, I’d say. 2000sq ft on 4 acres…geez.

I am entertaining A new tractor this year. Got a quote for new 23 kioti dk4720sehc, grapple, 3rd function, extra rear remotes, r4 tires, otd iowa tax either 6 or 7% at $40499 cash, before haggle. Add cruise and pedal link for $400 more. Kioti finance rate is $6k more at $46 and change. Not many...

My $75k($95 today) truck sits inside, under cover. The $18k tractor sits out. I hate it, but something had to give.

Not for me, but thanks anyway.

Can we ask the deal % off msrp/ trade?

That’s the problem, the ag exemption doesn’t apply to some tractor customers. Then, the tax becomes a bigger deal. Not really fair, but most taxes aren’t.

lol. I park my big hipped 3500 in my detached metal arch building. I have a 16 x 8 door, so plenty of room. My son parks his crewcab long box 2500 in detached 24x24 garage with 16x7 door. Hitch to back wall and inches to spare with door closed.

Will the extendable 3pt arms from my 09 dk45s fit the new do tractor?

I was just quoted $40,499.50 otd on a dk4720sehcab, 2nd set remotes, 3rd function installed, 72” grapple, cash price non farm. Deal?

A positive update. I was wrong on my above assumption. Dealer was very helpful/instrumental in getting this issue resolved. Kioti sent me a new tank under a parts only warranty. Obvious that Kioti felt there was a problem as the tank has been redesigned slightly in the fuel pick-up area. Much...

Got it out.What a pain! Fuel tank is leaking at the embossed seam where nipple is located.Lower right corner area. I think definitely a defect. The other 2 pics just show how far I had to go to get the thing out.

Anyone out there know the procedure for removing fuel tank on 2009-10 Kioti DK45S?

Does anyone have an idea what size engine or motor I wood need to operate a owatonna 42' elevator to move firewood? Thanx in advance.

In the market for a front mount mower 60"-72" , Prefer diesel. Anyone have some input as to their experience between brands? I currently have a Cub cadet Z force? with 50" deck that I use in town. Looking to back that up and replace my Toro lawn tractor and scotts lawn mower.Both of those being...

I'm resurecting my Z45-22 boom lift from the dead and need a source for used parts. Right now I need a Hayes flywheel pump coupling. Also, does anyone have an idea what the under machine center weight weighs? It is center of machine between the frame rails. Would make it easier fixing hyd. lines...

Has anyone on here converted a tow behind rotary cutter to 3 pt? Got sticker shock today looking at new ones. I have a BMB 6' that I am thinking about converting. Any thoughts?

Ok, I'm doing the 50 hr. srvice and went to TSC and got Premium Trans/hydraulic fluid. Says it is 10-20 and meets major manufactures specs. It's red. Makes me think ATF. What I drained out was clear like regular hydraulic oil. Is the red stuff the right stuff to put back in? If not what does...

Hey guys, Just thought I'd give a heads up. Mayer Imp in Central Iowa has sold out to Capital City and is going by Sundown? I believe is what the paper said. They will be selling bobcat alongside Foton- bad news for anyone wanting a deal on a Foton. That has been my experience with...

Just got my Pats easy change system for my Kioti DK45S yesterday. Great product. Fast shipping. Overall, a great pleasure to do business with. I love 'em.:thumbsup:

Is anyone else having problems logging into surplus center's web site? I haven't been able to log in all day.:(

I just measured the top link on my KIOTI DK45S and it is 22" ctr to ctr collapsed and 36" extended with 4-5 threads in. Where do I find a top cylinder that comes closest to this measurement. I have found that I use that length on a couple of implements( forks and plow). What would a complete top...

Anyone have pat's easy change slide in version? Been trying to get hold of them with no luck.Looking for a set for my DK45S.Thanks

Anyone on here with the KL1470 Loader weld grab hooks on? Did you need to reinforce the top lip of the bucket? I wouldn't think it would be needed at the top edges where 2 hooks will go. Definitely needed for a reciever hitch in the middle though. Any thoughts?

My Dk45S was delivered this a.m. I already put in 7 hrs in the seat. Man I love this thing. Got my garden tilling done, horse poo all mixed in, dirt work done, driveway graded. My 11 year old loves it too.:D:thumbsup:
