My NX6010

That was quick !

Hope that empty background doesn't mean you cut down ALL the trees with your Kioti

Nope. It means that it is winter and that's all you get to see.

Enjoy your new tractor!

Suffering from cabin fever with my own tractor stashed away hundreds of miles in northern Minnesota, I chased down a landscaper who couldn't find anybody to run this tractor clearing snow. Although a bigger, plusher tractor than my own tractor, its hydraulics are cruder and harder to operate than the set-up I built in my tractor. Moreover, this tractor has a clutch and since clutches are now a dark art, I got picked up at the top of the pay scale. A nice nod since all I wanted to do was go play with a big toy and get away from nibbling junk at my desk and getting fatter.

You must have loved the power especially if you weren't paying for the fuel.

Did you paint these?

The Kubota with more than twice the rated power is quite different than my NX6010. Weird not having a joystick. The plow is running off of the two remote rear valves and with one having a electric-over-hydraulic diverter. To make using that as interesting as possible, the switch for it is mounted on the steering column rather than anything the operator might be holding, like the gear shifter or something.

I've got to get a suction cup camera mount for videoing while operating the big Kubota.

Japody: I used an iPhone app to generate the watercolors of real photos. The App is called Waterlogue and well worth the $2.00 to purchase.

Hey guys I'm into my second kioti, had a 2012 CK35 for 2 years Great machine but loader frame issues!!! And hst pump replaced under warranty at 400hours!
I just bought a 15 kioti NX5510 hst cab ($33200) love it so far I use it on my snow plow sites now and farm other bit of time! Got it 12/5/14!!! Got one set of remotes ($250 dealer installed), rear wiper($135 ,$50 installfee), and( radio-$220 kioti factory free install) Do not waste your money buying a cheap radio from walmart it's not worth the aggravation to your electrical system!!! The price difference isn't worth it!!!! Don't see much use for more then one remote!!! Dealer installing front loader remote for grapple next month!!waiting for hard lines to come from factory!! Put 65 hours on it past few snow storms!!! Machine is an animal I also run a 6' sno blower on 3-point!!! Can't see why all you put a plow blade on the front???? The Bucket does a great job or just put a pusher blade on!! And use plow on truck!! Once you put that plow on tractor your screwed and can't use bucket to stack snow!!! Also don't know why some of you have problems heating up cab? I start up and heat is blowing hot in 5-10 minutes and that's when it's 1 degree here, I haven't put a plug on it & starts easy! Maybe down the road!! We don't go below -10 here in NJ!!
I've owned many tractors! I'll list as I update my page!! (Ford1710 was from when I owned that machine lol) trying to change my user name!! Ok I will add any advice I can give when I can!! But this new kioti I love!!

Stop yelling!

Lol, glad you like your tractor. I have used a bucket on the front, but now have a QA snow plow that I made, as well as my rear blade. That's a good combo. The snow plow works better than the bucket since you can angle the snow and windrow it. You can still stack snow with a front plow.

Congratulations on your new tractor!

FWIW, a second remote would let you add a hydraulic sidelink, in addition to a hydraulic toplink. You can always add one later, though, if you decide you want full top 'n tilt.

Can you be more specific on your concern about aggravation to the electrical system? I bought my Pyle-PLMR19W-Marine-AM-FM-USB-Radio through Walmart.com (it's sold by several different vendors), and it's been great for nine months now. I wanted a unit with NOAA weather radio bands, and didn't have any need for a CD player. Easy hookup. No electrical problems so far. $46. :thumbsup:
