Splined crank!

Like some of the other here, I have been looking at Kioti tractors. Not to buy one, but to see how things develop with them. (You know, competition is good) I noticed a cool thing about the DK40 when looking at the spec. sheet. I just thought that this was neat. Most older tractors that this feature, but fewer have it now.

Jerry,

Looking over the engine page at the Kioti Website, I see all of the Kioti engines have this feature. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
(The DK40 engine picture is attached.)

I haven't look at it on the other sizes. Just thought that it would be good for DIY people.

I agree! It is a neat feature. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Yep, mine has it too, as all the models do, but I don't really have any uses for it. A good fabricator could probably come up with some neat attachments that could use it though. John
