DK35 Kioti lever question

[double hunter]

Just acquired a DK35,,its a nice tractor, 4wd, loader, 604 hrs,,never have owned a Kioti,,seller did not have the owners manual,,there is a small lever under the 3 point lift handle, it is marked A and B position,,what does this control,,thanks in advance

 

[murph1]

that controls rear remote for a double acting cylinder.

 

[DK35vince]

Yes, the hydraulic rear remotes.

Vince, Is there a lever in the back for the 3 point like the 40s have?

 

[DK35vince]

No. The older model DK 35 didn't.
It would be nice. But just the standard 3 point lever by the seat.
The DK 35 SE model may have had the rear lever.

Keep spraying some penetrating oil on the valve. (Where the handle connects to the top of the valve)
After some time and a few applications it will hopefully break free.
Mine get to sticking sometimes and I have to hit them with penetrate fluid.
I need to spray the shaft for the 4 WD (the shaft going into the transmission the 4 WD handle hooks to) on occasion also for easy shifting.

the 4 wh dr lever is really stiff also,,been lubing it little and it is starting to get easier,,this tractor hasnt been used much in the last couple years and everything is stiff, the acelarator lever is stiff as a poker also, got this thing for so so I cant complain,,I pressure washed it and gave it good waxing and it really looks good.

It does, and it is as handy as a pocket on a shirt.

Probably wouldn't be hard to make one for mine (I'd have to look closer), but I never have.

The RPM control lever can be stiff on these, but the solution is to remove the two clamshell like covers, screws are underneath and loosen up the bolts which allow the lever to move more easily, and lube up the connections with copper based anti-seize. I did it once and done for eternity.

Just don't get the throttle lever too loose. You want enough resistance to where it stays put where you set it.

Fellas Im liking this Kioti,,about got all the levers and controls loose enuff to use easily,,all but one,,the lever that controls the hydraulic outlet on the back just will not free up,,been putting penetrating oil around it but no luck so far

 

[double hunter]

it freed up this morning,,been putting penetraing oil on it for a few days,,put a little pressure on the handle and a few reallly light taps with a hammer and there you go, got to find me a top link now
