CK20S with Chinese backhoe

[tz18da 50cs]

I was searching around for this information when I was looking for a backhoe attachment for my ck20S tractor and was able to get a lot of info but not exactly what I was looking for. I thought I would share just in case someone was looking for a option for a backhoe for their Kioti tractor. These small backhoes show up in a lot of auction houses and decided to pick one up. At first I hooked it up to the 3 point hitch which I could see would have been a disaster so I ordered the backhoe subframe from Kioti and everything lined up as if it was designed for the machine all bolt holes sizes etc was a perfect match. I'm actually surprised how well this backhoe works!

Cost was around $3000 for the backhoe(after buyers fees etc minus taxes in Canadian dollars) and the subframe was $700(cnd)

I bought it as I have to redo my back yard, stone work etc and remove quite a few trees and stumps. It is amazing how this little machine rips out the trees by their stumps (after a little root breaking) but I havent cut down a tree yet just pulled them down. (8-10 inch trunks so far). I used a John Deere 310G last year for an initial clearing and while it definately is quicker and way stronger it did too much damage to my bush due to its size.

I will try to get a video up after this heat wave

The dealer was willing to sell you the back hoe frame? No dealer I have contacted will sell me just a frame, only the frame with the back hoe for $8000
