Backhoe Installing Kioti KB 2485 on a Kubota 4760

[Firemandan]

I have a new Kubota L4760. I would like to connect my Kioti Kb2485 backhoe to it . It does not appear that the mounting patterns are the same between Kubota and Kioti. Does anyone have a modification idea that will work . I have attached a photo of the backhoe. Thanks

Please don't cross-post.

Every backhoe subframe is specific to that manufacturer, or tractors manufactured by the same manufacturer. Not only that, but they're specific to a limited number of models. Of course, a Kioti backhoe won't fit on a Kubota. You'll need to do a lot of fabrication to make that work.

It might be easier/better to get the proper sub frame for the Kubota and make the backhoe fit the sub frame.

I need to go the other way, the frame for my kubota needs to now fit my kioti. dealer wants 750 I think it was for a subframe to fit my new tractor so I'm really thinking just modifying the old one to fit. You will most likely need to mock up the kioti frame under the kubota and see if it's even worth trying to modify it to fit. May find it easier to just start from scratch or buy a subframe for your kubota. Also a lot depends on your fab skills and tools.

I'd sell the Kioti backhoe and frame and buy a Kubota subframe mount. There should be a buyer for the Kioti backhoe if you live in an area that Kioti has a good market.

Ok so I have purchased the proper Subframe mount from Kubota a bx 4999 kit. Has anyone ever installed one onto a L 4760. It looks pretty straight forward but thought i might ask if anyone has some advice.

It should be straight-forward. But you do realize it will have to be EXTENSIVELY modified to work with the Kioti backhoe?

Yes i see that the kioti backhoe will require some fabrication in order to work with the Kubota Sub frame. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks.

I have manged to get the Kioti backhoe to fit up to the Kubota 4760. I can't seem to get the rear remote to lock in detent position.i have 2 sets of rear ports with separate levers in cab. If I hold port 1 on it allows me to move backhoe around. Any suggestions what I may be doing wrong?

Are you sure the remotes have detents?

On the Kioti, they can be ordered with or without. I'm curious though, did you remove the hydraulic system on the backhoe? I thought the 2485 had its own system.
