Welcome to the neighborhood ... ... I'm still on the lookout for a new one myself . As the others have said any --- any pictures will be gladly looked at ... the Mailman awaits ....

 

[Jaybr]

It won't be here until this evening, but I'll be sure to post pics tomorrow.


I stopped by and picked up the trailer and implements this morning, they where installing the backhoe when I was there.

Pics as promissed.

Not sure if this is normal, but dealer installed rear remotes for the BH at no additional cost, as seen in pics.

I think your going to be really happy with the rear remotes. When my dealer first installed my BH he used a set of hoses from the Power Beyond Block. When I removed the BH I had to wrap the hoses around the gas tank and hope that they didn't fall down. I have a 4" PTO Chipper that I use when the BH is off and the hoses were a very dangerous combination with the PTO driveshaft. IMHO your dealer did you a favor...sounds like a good dealer! I ended up having to pay the dealer to put rear remotes on in place of the hose kit (long story ).

I hope your new Kioti serves you well!

By the way, that's a wicked looking toothbar you have there!

A toothbar is my next addition to a growing number of attachments/implements. This tractor thing is additive! (my name is Greg and I have a tractor problem. It all started when I joined TBN...)

 

[Jaybr]

I think the toothbar is going to work out well for me. You can see in the first pic how thick the woods are around the house, I plan to clean them up a good bit over time. I've already tried out the toothbar pushing/digging over some of the small trees.

I paid $250 installed, I think it will be well worth it.

Great looking machine!

I think only the good dealers like yours and mine install rear remotes for the backhoe. Just make sure you have some way of telling which hose goes to which Quick Disconnect. My dealers put a red ziptie on the top QD and another on the corresponding hose, simple and works great.

I love the toothbar, that and a box blade are my next purchases. That is if Uncle Sam ever gives me my tax return.

Jay, that is one sharp looking tractor, congratulations. The toothbar will make a big difference in digging ability, sometimes I get to big of a hole with the TB if I'm not careful.
I use the colored electrical tape to mark my hydraulic hoses, you can buy a small pack at WalMart with five different colors in it.
Good luck.....

 

[Jaybr]

Dealer put colored hoses on the BH hoses, no problem there.

You need a new nickname - LUCKY

Congrats on your new toy Jay. That toothbar is wicked, looks just like mine. Is it a Woods? It makes digging and scraping much, much easier. Only takes a couple minutes to remove for leveling, though most times I don't bother. Who cares if you have some tooth marks in your fill? Usually bucket leveling isn't for a "mirror" like finish anyways. Nice tractor, a BH is my next purchase I think, Uncle Sam are you listening??

Welcome to the pack.
