Love At First Sight

[pinetree10]

Walked into the Farm Depot in Ionia yesterday, saw a CX2510 Tractor Loader and told a guy sitting at a desk doing something/nothing, "I want somebody to sell me that Tractor". He referred me to a young lady.

They delivered it that day. As of this morning, it has exactly 1 Hour on it.

No clue whether I got a good deal or not. Maybe. Too late now. All I know is, nothing down, $239 a Month for 7 years including insurance. Besides, it might be the only tractor available in the State of Michigan.

I don't even know what I don't know

Congratulations on your purchase. I had to drive by the local dealer for years before I could finally afford to buy mine. The day I bought it was a happy one and I've never regretted spending that money. Every time I use it, it pays for itself and I enjoy it.

Congrats
You may want to check nuts and bolts make sure there tight.

Yes and plumbed aluminum hydraulic line nuts. I missed one of these. Also check grease points.

Everybody says the engine is 1.647 liters or 1,647 cc.

But the people that note it say that is 87 Cubic Inches. It is not. It is just over 100 cubic inches. The engine designation is 3A165LWH-U2, which tells me it's 1.65 liters. Which is, again, 100 cubic inches. Even the official website is confusing CX2510 HST | Kioti Tractors

Is everybody getting their filters from the dealer? I'd like to get some cross-referenced filters. I'm not one of those that believes in OEM filters in all things. Some things, yeah. Not all.

I tried to cross reference through Wix and it had a nervous breakdown.

I found one or two grease points on the tractor itself, bunches on the loader. Any hints on where to find the zerks on the tractor itself? PTO, etc?

Thanks. And does Kioti still use the British zerk? In case I break one (likely)

I've been tractor-less in here for 2-1/2 years.

I don't have a tractor because I own a 'farm' (5 acre hobby farm)
I have a farm so I can own a tractor

I use WIX on my DK35SE. One oil filter issue is that the length space is limited when you look at filters that are candidates. Your a long ways from a hydraulic filter. Engine "size" vs. hp vs. torque is a better discussion than cc's or ci's. In a tractor torque & traction are the supremo factors.

The manual should have a dedicated section that shows all of the grease points. Yes the loader will have more than the tractor, but there are usually still a few on the tractor (front axle as an example on mine).
I am not sure which zeros Kioti uses sorry. Maybe someone else here will.

I have two holes in the side of the bucket on each side. Are they a pre-drill for tooth bars??

Did you get the manuals?

They're shipping holes. The buckets are stood up for shipping, and bolts go through those holes to hold them on the pallet.
