My New (to me) CK3510 SE HST

[kvmatz]

After a few months of research and watching for deals I took delivery of a used CK3510SE HST today and I would like to know if there is anything I should check over or maintenance that I should do to it before I start to use it. The tractor is 1 year old and has 11.5 hours on it.

Now its time to buy implements. If anyone has suggestions on a grapple (and 3rd function kit) and rotary cutter please let me know.

I have really enjoyed reading on this forum the last few months and appreciate people's willingness to help.

Thank you!

Congrats! Dang, 11.5 hours? Someone didn't actually need a tractor, I guess.

Sweet lookin machine. Envy over here. :drink:

11 hours and saved 6k over the quote I had received a few weeks ago.

Wow, wish I could find that deal myself.

Oh right, things to check:
Loader and wheel bolts - re-torque to spec (edit: don't loosen and re-torque, just set your torque wrench and check if they are still tight enough). Hopefully none are loose, but it can happen.
I would find every grease point and inspect/clean/grease.
Check hydraulic and engine lube oil levels/condition. Coolant too.

Might as well put some wax on it now too, if the body panels and big frame areas are still clean enough!

Thank you for the info.

That looks just like the one I got last week.

Kioti has a 3rd function kit for these tractors. Or you could have hoses made to run from one of the rear remotes to the loader bucket.

Crawl under the tractor with a flash light & look around. Also open the hood & look around.

I leveled the loader bucket & then cut the bucket level indicator off even with the top of the guide tube.

Congratulations. I agree check books for tightness. Also check out hydraulic hose connections to make sure they're tight onto the fitting and that the fitting is tight onto the cylinder.

I recently had my dealer install a Kioti 3rd function kit into my CK2610 and it looks great.

I ordered an Everything Attachments Wicked root grapple and an waiting for it to arrive. From all the positive reviews for EA products on this site they're the best.

I am looking at EA attachments for the grapple. I just realized I am right down the road about 20 minutes from them.

Can anyone tell me what type of tires I have from the picture that I posted? The seller told me there were R1, but I am not sure. I was hoping for R4.
