All,
I recently bought a Kioti RX7320 cab tractor. So far I am fairly happy with it. But I have had a few problems with the quick attach system coming detached from my attachments. This has happened 3 times now. The first time it happened was when I was using the grapple to pull my dead tractor (see general buying guide "looking for another tractor" for the story behind that), with a chain attached to the front end loader of my old tractor and to the grapple on my RX7320. The grapple came completely off and ripped out the hydraulic lines for the grapple. The second time was when I was using the grapple trying to pick up some brush and limbs with the grapple. I was trying to pick up vertically, having the grapple turned down, and when trying to get as much material in the grapple it became detached from the quick attach. The third time was earlier today while using the mini tree shear. After having cut a tree (or so I thought), while backing out while still gripping the tree the tree shear came detached. In all three cases the latching handles on the quick attach were still in the locked position after detachment, and prior to use the sliding pins at the bottom of the quick attach were locked in the attachment's slots on the bottom. Any ideas as to the cause? I can provide pictures if needed.
