CK30 HST filters

[CanuckGT]

Ok, have searched the forum looking for answer but haven't found any so...

Can I use Bobcat filters on my 2009 kioti ck30 hst? I am in need of a hydraulic and transmission filter and have no Kioti dealer in town but do have a Bobcat dealer and Napa.Since these are the same tractors do the filters interchange?

I found a cross for Wix filter for the engine oil,air and fuel but not the rest??

When I bought my CK35 HST new 3 years ago I also bought a full set of filters from the dealer in Oregon. I have since reordered the hydraulic and transmission filters from him. Just bought locally, a new air filter from a car parts store. I do believe that Bobcat and Kioti have the same engine and transmission so filters from Bobcat should fit. Where in Canada are you located?

Thanks, went to my local Bobcat dealer and the guy never heard of Kioti??,,wow...

Nearest dealer is 2hrs away so I guess will have to order a couple.

I'm near Drumheller,Ab....dino valley as I like to call it

For the CK30 and hst version, K&N makes a replacement for the Donaldson air filter. From the K&N web site, this one is cleanable and you don't oil it like car the filters. Apparently this is their commercial style filter. For $34.57 and free shipping, this may be a good way to go. I still have a new one on the shelf but may order one and compare. This site is the cheapest I have found: K&N E-4962 Replacement Industrial Air Filter

If you want Bobcat filters, just tell the parts guy that you have a CT230. It's the same as the CK30hst with a few small changes by Bobcat. Their fel and bh are different. I had just looked over a CT230 yesterday. I have a hard time passing tractor stores when I'm going somewhere.

Will this filter give me 5 extra horsepower like they do in my honda civic? Kidding aside, I like the idea of a washable filter.

I too am looking for a good source of HST/Hyd filters my dealer is 2 hours away and I can't stand my somewhat local Bobcat dealer.

We ship daily!
Bobcat filters will work on Kioti tractors. They are the same machine with different colors.

 

[CanuckGT]

Thanks for all the replies....any chance you ship up to Canada? ...probably cost too much for shipping

 

[wallace]

Yes we do. Pm me your shipping info and I will quote you out shipping. Don't forget to let us know what you want:thumbsup:

That's interesting....first I heard of it. And no oiling?!

I have used K&Ns for more than 30 y for cars, PUs, and M/Cs, but I
balked at the $60+ they want for one for my Tacoma.

Since I have owned both the CK30 and the CT230, I can attest to
the fact that the air filter housing for both CUTs is the same, tho
Bobcat uses a secondary filter and Kioti does not. You can upgrade
a Kioti to dual filters by buying both at Bobcat.

I had looked at the Donalson part number on my filter and cross referenced it in the K&N company site. I also checked the measurments they gave to make sure it was the same size. K&N part number is E-4962. This smaller filter is supposedly built the same way they make their larger filters for truck-tractors and big commercial equipment. Their site shows how to clean the filter and then I too was surprised they said no oiling. I wish I could see one before buying. I have stayed with all factory filters and my tractor has never let me down. Not saying that aftermarket filters aren't as good and I don't want to start a filter war as has happened in the past. To each his own.

Chamjoe, wouldn't it be nice to get 5 extra hp.

Wallace, nice to see your still checking the orange site. I thought maybe your wife has you working on the honey do list and there is no time to post. :laughing: We all miss your comments and help. I hope all is well.

CanuckGT, I still have some Kioti filters on my shelf from Wallace when he wore orange. If he advises they will fit, he would know. You couldn't ask for a nicer person to deal with. :thumbsup:
