Congrats!
I love my Kama 454. I noticed the loader is red, mine came black. I keep mine in the garage too, nice having tall doors.

The red loader was at this customer's request, I like it! It does make the tractor look a little smaller than the black loader for some reason. We did the whole last shipment in Red loaders, wish I had tried it earlier. Koyker will supply loaders in colors to match/blend with most tractors at no additional cost.

Man, that really is a VERY good lookin' machine. Quality looks excellent too from what I can see in the pics. I like the red loader too. Your going to have a great time using it. I have a smaller 204 Jinma and it's been a real worker. Enjoy!

That sure is a pretty KAMA and that red Koyker looks GREAT! I noticed your rear hydraulic ports appear to be American? Is that right?
My 554 came with the Chinese hydraulic fittings and I could not find ones to fit them (yet). When I bought the Top & Tilt I ordered quick disconnect fittings on the hoses and they don't fit the KAMA. I had to change mine over but the threads don't seem to fit exact, so I used a lot of teflon tape just to get them working. (See attachment) Did your dealer change those over for you?
Does anyone know how do the Chinese threads fit to American? Can they work? Or will I have to change the entire hose assembly and tap the hydraulic outlets (in the reservoir) to accept American pipe threads?
Or...are there Chinese quick disconnects that fit mine available?
If indeed they have been changed, can someone tell me where on the tractor it was done?...maybe Chip?

Rob,
I think all the KAMAs come with the same quick connects, they are bigger than a standard Pioneer type. You do stock an adaptor that will convert to standard 1/2 NPT threads.
