Looks like I bought a Kioti DK45se HST, FEL, Cab and backhoe today. It will be replacing a Mahindra 3510 which has been a heck of a good tractor, stouter than I ever dreamed. Am I going to be as happy with the Kioti (please say yes).

How large of a bushhog (mid-weight) can I expect the DK45 to handle? 6' or 7'?

Lots of good information here I can tell. Just gonna take me some time to find my way around.

I have had a DK45SE HST , non cab, since last June and like it a lot.
I bought a 5 foot bush hog and it pulls that effortlessly in high. I would imagine a 6 footer would be fine.

I've had a DK40se HST for the past 18 months. Love it. Best value out there in the 40hp range. I do a lot of brush clearing so the cab would not be practical for me but once I'm done with that phase I just might trade up to a cab and I'd definitely be looking at the one you just bought.

Congradulations on your new toy... er.. machine. If you have not already, wonder on over to the Kioti forum, say hello and you should get some definintive answers there.
