3PH Capacity

[LD1]

I have found the implement manuals to be laughable at best and no where close to real world.

They never used to put this crazy stuff in manuals. People just did what worked. Its all about CYA for the manufactures.

MAnual says max cutter for my tractor is 7'/1000#, I use 8' 1620#. IT says max 2x16 plow and I pull a 3x14 with ease. Max pull type disc is 7'/880#....I pull a deere 210 ~11'....and probably alot heavier than 880#. SAys max 6' rear blade....well the tractor is 6' wide so how do you cover tracks when angled? I use a 8' 1250# hydraulic blade. Says most I can tow is 7700# on a trailer. I have no issues with my 12k dump loaded to capacity.

The manual and its limitations are great if you are inexperienced with tractors. But dont treat them as gospel that should never be broken

The implement is a NTD. Empty it weighs 1000#s. I can put another 3-350# in it of seed.

IT would help if we knew what tractor you were considering.

I assume NTD is a "no-till drill"? I didnt even know you could get one in 3PH? Are you talking about something like a brillion seeder?

The tractors I am considering is a Kioti CK3610, DK4510. CK3610 weighs 2646#, FEL with 66"bucket weighs 981#s, 3 ph lift capacity 1631# 24" from pin. DK is not in stock currently. The DK brochure says the Tractor weighs 3373# w/ AG tires, FEL w/ 72" bucket weighs 1,085# totaling 4458#s. The Dk 3ph lifting capacity is 2,716 pounds.
I have a Genesis NTD for food plots, and such. The Ford 3930 is just too damn big and a hassle to transport to and from KY and TN so, I was wanting a smaller lighter tractor. However, I wanted to make certain due to the rolling hills I have a stable platform that can handle the load.

I have a CK3610 and would probably recommend a DK for what you are considering. As nice and beefy as the CK is, the DK is another league up in weight, strength and capacities. Should fall right in the middle of the Ford and the CK3610 in size.

I'd aim for the DK, but I think either would do it if you are correct about the weights.
