+1 on all of that.
Along with all the other warnings about your ability to handle those totes of water.
If you're dead set on moving those (as full as possible) I'd suggest a set of forks for the rear 3pt instead of the FEL. Higher lift capacity, lower CG.
Also - along with the loaded tires, in order to max out what you can lift with your loader, you're going to need additional rear "counter weight"
- You could use the 3pt forks and a tote full of water (no additional cost over what you need now)
- You could buy/build your own ballast box (Limited functionality aside from some tool carrier type duties and extra cost)
- You can get a heavy rear implement - a box blade is the most popular choice. Generally they are heavy, fairly compact, and a useful attachment to have in their own right. (Most $$ option, good ones aren't cheap)
Best of luck with your new tractor, and from a fellow Kioti owner - Welcome to the pack.

get those. They make connecting implements much easier.

For moving IBC totes with “some” water in them consider rear 3ph pallet forks. More weight capacity and safer.
For occasional digging post holes consider a gas powered auger. Probably cheaper than 3ph auger.

Thank you for all the quick replies. I maybe should have been more in depth on things. The ibc tote is a 300 gallon that is only filled about halfway due to where the overflow hole was made. I also understand that 150 gallons at 8.33 lbs per gallon is over 1200lb not including the weight of the tote and metal cage. I was also under the impression that the front end loader had a higher lift capacity than the rear. Maybe I am wrong.

Loader capacites usually have two numbers- breakout force and capacity at full height. Due to the way the geometry works, breakout (lifting from ground level) is significantly more than the full height lift. My Branson's loaders spec is 3500 lb breakout and 2100 at full height. If you lift something that requires less than the breakout force but more than the full height force, the loader will stop part way up and the relief valve will be triggered.

Detent means that the valve will stay in one of the two 'on' positions (assuming normal three position valves). Like a loader valve's float position only on, not float. You'd want it if you plan on connecting something with its own valves like a backhoe or a log splitter. Most factory backhoes have their own way of connecting that does not use the remotes.

A detent type will hold the lever in the “continuous flow” condition so that an implement which requires constant flow will operate; for instance a Backhoe needs a detent because when you use the remote you want the lever to be held so that the hydraulic flow is continuous however for a top and tilt you want a spring return type because you don’t need the flow continuously only when you want to move the implement such as adjusting the angle of a box blade.
Hello, fellow CK2610H owner here.... Congrats on the new tractor!
When I got my tractor a month ago, the dealer would only install two rear remotes. The price difference for 1 vs 2 was something like $7 Cdn.
One of mine is spring centered, the other is detented.. You just have to be aware of the detented valve and not accidentally knock it to one end or the other, and have the pump dead-head against the quick coupling. I did that, and it took me a minute to find the issue, and I have extensive hydraulic experience.
Make sure you get the linked pedal - the linked pedal is a fantastic addition if you are going to do much loader work. I didn't get the "cruise control" and should have - I will likely add it in the future.
