Loader DK 35 FEL Control lever broke!

n1wjr · Dec 23, 2010

I was moving snow today with my DK 35 and went to rise the boom on the FEL And the control lever went all the way down and broke.

I took the boot off and the valve that goes in the valve bank broke off!
it say's something in the Man. about not a serviceable part so probably I will have to buy the whole valve bank,,,,,sound's expensive !
I am heading to my dealer in the morning to see what he has for parts.
just wondering if this has happened to other dk 35 owners with the 1450 loader?
thanks

The problem is all fixed!
Thanks to my wonderful Dealer Upper Valley Equipment !!
They Drilled it out then used an easyout tool to remove the broken piece and
then They fixed it with a new part they had in Stock!
No Charge !!!
And then Dave Said Merry Christmas too me !
Thanks Dave ! and Merry Christmas too you and the Guy's!

My loader also broke (2006 DK35), it wont curl down and if I push the lever over to far it curls up instead. I dont have a dealer local so any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated.

This thread is almost 4 years old, so I'm thinking you may get somewhat limited responses.

Probably just a linkage issue. The mechanism in the joystick is fairly simple. You can get replacements online or thru any tractor store. It's not a Kioti-specific thing.
If the bucket is doing anything when you move the lever it's probably not the loader valve
