DK35 Package

   / DK35 Package #11  
A trailer that size usually has electric brakes.
You will need to buy a control box and wire it into you truck.
I would not recommend pulling the weight of the trailer,tractor,and attachments behind a Toyota pickup without trailer brakes !

tn, i would personally not want to tow my trailer and DK35 with a small truck like your toyota. i have a S10 and won't use it. i use my 3/4 ton dodge with cummins diesel to tow my rig. feel real safe and don't worry about damaging my truck or tractor. just my 2.5 cents worth. can you get someone to tow it for you or borrow a truck? hate to see your new DK35 all over the hiway.

Hey guys, thanks for confirming what I already suspected on trailing the DK behind the Toyota. I think I will borrow or rent a truck if it has to be moved.

Now for the bad news, last night after work I went to the shop for my nightly admiration of the new tractor (pretty sad isn't it) and found three large pools of fluid under the tractor on the concrete. Something, I think it's the loader, is leaking like a sieve. Not that the knot in my stomach wasn't bad enough, I am getting those looks once again from my wife. I about had her convinced, based on responses from this post and others, that the seal was probably a one time thing and the tractor/loader will probably be fine from now on. It will take a lot more convincing now.
On a good note, I called O'Bryan's today (July 4th) and got Paul O'Bryan. He was very apologetic and said he would send someone out next week to correct. So far in this process, Paul, John and the rest of the staff at O'Bryan's have been very responsive and I am very appreciative. Hopefully, this will be the last time these guys have to come out. I will keep you posted.

K-01,I bought a crated tractor so I guess I did my own PDI,still the loader factory should have a quality assurance program to catch these things.
Did I mention the zerk fittings?I believe they were driven in without using the proper drive tool.This squashes them and makes it near impossible to get the grease gun off,some actually pulled out,this again is sloppy work at the loader plant...........Mike

It is a shame that Kioti builds such a nice tractor,but the loader mfg. can not seem to put in a seal !!

It is sad that the only problems Kioti has are all related to the American made loader. Kioti will stand behind their product and you will have no problem from them about warranty work. Maybe we should start trying to show our kids the advantages of discipline and pride that makes all of these other countries products better than our own. We better do somethin' QUICK!! America has been on a "let's make our kids feel good even if they do bad" plight for far to long.
