ck20 4 wheel drive gone bad

[jimhelfrich]

I purchased a CK20 about 3 years ago ( same time as Mathey, a regular lister in the Kioti section) The ck20 was in the first batch that came in. Anyway I have a problem with the lever that locks the tractor into 4wd. It will not go into 4wd low but will go into 4wd high. The high low lever actually moves the 4wd lever at the same time. Never did this before. Any thoughts out there? Jim /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Yes, very easy fix. Take apart the pivot point, where the 2 levers ride on the same point, and use anti-sieze on it. Just follow the levers down, it will make more sense when you are looking at the tractor. It's just where the levers get sticky and sometimes a little rust underneath them.
Takes only a few minutes.
We had it happen to one after the customer had it on a trailer on a salty wet day in January.
It sat in his garage until May, it was stuck pretty good.

Well, I do know that I have the same issue that icisled had...my dealer is talking with Kioti to see if they are willing to help defray any/all of the labor costs associated, since this should not have happened...
