brand new Kioti tractor with issues

[Williy]

I had my first error code today on my Yanmar YT235C
water in fuel. It was a tough decision but I just had to
do it I turned the valve and let the water out
I also added forgot the name of it its no PS but clear
plastic bottle yellow label keeps from jelling, eliminates
water etc. This is the first time with water in fuel and my
tank is usually 3/4 to full 149.4 hours and I always treat
the fuel when I purchase it.

My tractors, as tractors go, aren't that old. The new ones have so much electronics I don't know if this still applies, but here goes.
The hour meter rarely shows the hours it has run hour for hour.
To get a direct hour for hour reading mine need to run about 1750rpm equivalent to 540 on the PTO.
Less than that and you get short hours shown even if it does run a full hour.
The temp guage doesn't show numbers because you are more likely to notice the indicator is in the wrong range with a colored background.
Mine only come up to the edge of the green range with a large sweep of the indicator left before ending up in yellow and red.
Running them for (scary to say) 17 years now and no issues.

Sorry, can't help you with your problem. I did want to mention that if you have any interest in the full electrical schematics for the RX6020/6620/7320/7620 series, then PM me. They are 2 paper sheets 18"x36". I posted previously asking if anyone owned one and got no response. Toukow

How does it calculate hours? I'm not sure.

Some hour meters accrue hours with the ignition switch on and some use the actual engine to accrue hours. One thing I don't concern myself with anyway.

Thanks to all for your input, I am new to tractors and Kioti.

No way! For real?

I have only had this tractor for about 2 weeks. It is a Kioti RX 7320 with powershuttle and cab I noticed today that after running for about 1/2 hour the temperature gauge is still on cold although there was heat in the cab. I also notice that the hour gauge seems off. It is on 6 hours and I know i have not had it running for 6 hours. I bought this tractor for the construction trade so i am not running it for hours on end brush hogging or ....

I had read an article about someone who added a cab and had a similar issue. The tractor came with the cab already installed. I did contact the dealer but have not heard back yet.

Any thoughts?? Regards, Joe

My Kioti NX took forever to show correct engine temp. The hour meter on the NX showed tenths (xxx.x) and I didn't realize this at first and misread the hours.

My new TYM tractor shows temp increasing correctly (only a few minutes to reach normal temp and its digital readout.
