New CK30 HST, Low Power?

[unhappykioti]

I have a CK20 HST I was experiencing some of the same problems when the tractor got warmed up it would hardly pull it's self around, took it to the dealer who did a great job by the way (Tractorguy, in Chehalis, WA). Anyway he had my tractor about 6 weeks adjust everything that could be adjusted replaced every valve related to the hydro and still did not fix it. In the end he had replace the whole Hydro transmission unit. Now there is no stopping this little tractor. The tractor only had about 37 hours on it when this was done. I only use it for loader work and mowing with a 3 point finish mower.

CK30 HST 150hrs. Have not experienced any of the concerns mentioned here. Traded in a 2002 3052 and no notice any difference in push/pull power. Both will dig in. No water in tires though.

Hello Kioti 100, something sounds out of adjustment with your hydro.. My ck30hst with backhoe in low gear is a bear, its almost impossible to stall , even when digging in compacted soil.. I pull a 6ft boxblade in heavy clay also with no problems.. I wouldnt recomend running filled tires while using a backhoe , but thats just my opinion.. Good luck

Pretty much the same story here. I have the R4 tires, but even in four wheel drive it will spin the tires or it continue to climb up and over just about any terrain that will give you a serious pucker factor. Rarely have I ever stalled it and that was when I was running at low rpm's. I would look for problems with the engine performance. Good Luck and keep us posted.
