DK35 Attachments

KEROSENEDRVR · Apr 3, 2005

I'm going to purchase a DK35 this week. I'm curious if I'm making a mistake buying the KL1450 FEL, this based upon some posts regarding rollback? I'm also looking at the KB2375 BH, am I going to be happy with this as opposed to a different brand?

I sent you a PM check it out.

Overall I pretty happy with my 1450 loader. I like the mounting, controls and lift power. I also got the optional quick attach bucket (nice feature).
I felt my 1450 loader was a little weak on bucket roll back power so I moved the bucket pins a few inches farther apart.( I still believe the original 5" between the bucket pins is not enough).
I've moved a lot of material over the past year of so and the loader has been working good..

Can't help you on the KB2375 backhoe.
I run a Rhino 85 backhoe w/subframe (8 1/2' digging depth, 11" reach) on my DK 35 and I have been very pleased with it.
If you can I recommend you go with an 8 1/2' backhoe.

Regarding the BH... Is there a problem mounting the 8 1/2 foot (2385) vs the 7 1/2 foot (2375) to the DK35?

The Kioti website under DK 35 attachments it lists the KB2385 backhoe.
But under backhoe application chart it does not /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
When I bought my DK 35 a few years ago the 8 1/2' backhoe was available for that model. If it still is, I'm not sure..
I find my Rhino 85 (8 1/2") a good fit on my tractor..

I believe the DK35 is designed for either.
Check with your dealer, and if you have any doubts, get it in writing from Kioti that it's okay to use the larger BH on your tractor without fear of warranty problems. John

good catch...I didn't notice the differences on the Kioti website. I sure would like the extra legnth and umphhh of the 2385.

Check with your dealer on the 2385 hoe and make sure warranty will be OK.
My warranty is all done, so I can do/run what ever I want too !! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
