With the recent cold snap we have been having on the east coast my steering cylinder has developed a small leak when cold. Once the warm oil gets in there it stops, but it's not going to get any better with time. I looked up the parts breakdown and as usual, Kioti is only offering the entire...

The axle in my 410 has been locked since the day I bought it. The first hint I had something was not right was the green paint on the left axle tube. I has a suspicion that something bad happened on that side and messed up the diff lock and when they replaced the axle tube, they didn't replace...

I have an old 410 I bought last summer. In the warm weather, forward and reverse would engage without issue, I was able to put the tractor in high first without any noticable slippage. When the cold weather arrived, the machine had a hard time pulling itself around in low first. Revese...

My Kioti Dk40 has a single rear hydraulic port with the option to add a second. I was thinking about adding another valve to my tractor and was curious of the lay out. I looked at the parts catalog and I'm wondering if there are third party valve bodies available. I assume Kioti is buying off...

I was given a Ford 575 backhoe that my father didn't need anymore that I need to adapt to my DK40. I was hoping to swap the sub frame that worked in the other thread about the Chinese backhoe, but it's not going to happen, it's a different system. It looks like New Holland used the same rail...

The bolt that holds the output gear on the hydrostat unit finally broke on my 755 and I had to pull it apart. We got the hydrostat unit out without too much effort without removing the entire rear end, fished the bolt head and washer out with a bore scope and a magnet, but lost a magnet in the...

My hydrostatic Dk40 is just past the 4 year mark (out of warranty) and has 800 hours on the clock. I had to move it to my other house on the weekend and when traveling down the road in high range I felt it wasn't moving as fast as it should. When I was doing some work around the yard I found...

I'm getting an L4150 with a house I'm purchasing. I did an inspection last night and saw it is not setup with a skidsteer quick attach. Is there a source for either a Kubota or after market kit to add the quick attach? I need to set a bunch of fence posts when I take possession of the house...

A friend of mine recently bought a used DK55 and on the weekend he noticed some odd behavior. When the AC clutch engages, the temp gauge will peg. When the AC clutch kicks out, the gauge will go back to normal. My first guess is a dirty ground somewhere and maybe some stray voltage back...

Does anyone have some pictures of how the mounting system works? My father has offered to give me the backhoe from his Ford compact and I'm curious to know how Kioti attaches their hoe to the tractor before I commit. It's been several years since I've seen the Ford hoe, but I believe there are...

I don't like starting a cold diesel in the dead of winter and it can be plenty cold where I am located in January & February. I discussed this with my dealer and he told me that Kioti's official stance on this is their tractors do not require a block heater. The dealer agreed with me that a...

I've been going back and forth on what I wanted to buy next for the last 6 months, finally made up my mind that a cab tractor with front mount blower was going to be the most practical solution for my problems. The wife won't have any excuses as to why the driveway isn't clear when I get home...

I need to pick up a wood splitter and it would be nice to run it off my tractor but I'm not sure if the little hydraulic pump would put out enough flow to make it worth while. According to tractordata.com the pump is rated for 5.6GPM and I assume that is when the engine is running wide open...

I've always had a bit of a thing for the old 2 cylinder diesels and one has come up for sale not far from me that has most of the stuff I'm interested in for what appears to be a decent price. I've been hunting around for information on what to look for on these machines but haven't been able...

Hello everyone, I've been looking at used mulchers and I found a 100hp Gehl wheeled skidsteer with track chains and a FAE UML/SSL head. I have seen a couple videos on Youtube of a similar setup mulching material that would be similar to what I want to clean up and it seems to do a decent job...

If the tractor was any closer to the train the operator might of had his toenails clipped as well.

My neighbour is selling one, it has the V4 Wisconsin engine and open top. She's an older machine but his son says it all works. I'll get it out for a test drive in a day or two. Can't quite figure out the drive system, I see a cardan shaft from the engine to a right angle gear box and that...

Hello Everyone, My father inlaw wants to deepen his pond and doesn't want to pay for a dragline. His pond isn't very big but has 2-3 feet of dead organic sludge on the bottom, if you step off the boat you'll be up to your waist in goop. Has anyone here ever tried doing this with a trash pump...

Hello everyone, I have a soft sided cab for my 755 and it certainly makes the job of blowing snow a lot nicer but I'm thinking I'd like a little extra heat. I get enough heat blowing back from the engine to keep the windows clear but after a while you still start to notice the cold. I found a...

Hello Everyone, After a long winter it's finally time to put the blower away and think about mounting the mower. I received the tractor in January so the only thing I did was unclip the mower and put it out of the way. Now that the grass is starting to grow again it's nearly time for me to...

Hello Everyone, I recently picked up a 755 and everything looks to be pretty decent with it, needs a little TLC here and there but over all I'm happy with my purchase. One thing that has me a little concerned is the PTO clutch, it's a little tricky to get it engaged sometimes. The symptoms...

Hello Everyone, I've been looking for a compact tractor in the 20 hp range with a loader and MMM and found one that is in my price range. I've uploaded the pictures the seller sent to me to my website and if there are any 755 experts out there who would like to pick this machine apart please...
