Well. I think I did. Yesterday the tractor started right up in the morning and after mowing I shut it down to fuel up and it wouldn't restart. Everything was dead. I did a load test on the battery and it was toast. Put it a new one and I'm back up and running.

The older DK's are mechanical. Is your tachometer working? If not it may be a broken cable.

My original battery is still going strong on my 2001 DK 35.

The prices of backhoes sure have gone up since I got mine 9 or 10 years ago. I got my Rhino 85 with subframe and 18" bucket for $5200. (still on the crate, I assembled the subframe and hose kit and installed the hoe) It has an 8 1/2' digging depth and 11' reach. Today backhoes seem to be going...

Hello, from another Western,PA. member.

Good to hear your DK 40 is working out well. I've had my DK 35 for 9 or 10 years now. It has worked great.

You have wet brakes so use a heavy duty tractor transmission/hydraulic fluid. If it says on the jug/bucket the oil meets or exceeds Kubota UDT specifications, it will work fine.

Kubota and Kioti both make some fine tractors. Been very happy with my Kioti DK 35 for the past 10 years and 1500 hours.

Check out Bobcat also if you have a dealer nearby. They have some very nice tractors. I have owned a Kioti DK 35 for 9 years. Its been a very good tractor. No problems.

I agree with the others. 43 PTO HP should handle a 7' cutter. I run a 6' brush mower on my 28 PTO HP tractor with no problem.

I have a hydraulic top link and a hydraulic tilt cylinder. They are great and I will never be without them on my tractor

I generally get 7 to 10 years out of a battery. My last pickup battery lasted 10 years. Our car is 7 years old and my Kioti tractor is 9 years old. Both are still running the original batteries. I'm hoping to get a few more years out of them.

Try spraying penetrating oil on the 4 wd shift linkage where the shaft goes into the transmission housing. I've read posts in the past where other Kioti owners were having the same issue and it was the shaft getting corrosion on it where it enters the transmission housing. Spraying it with...

I run 45 PSI in my front tires (R-4's unloaded) so I don't peal a tire off during loader work. My loaded rear R-4's I'm running around 12-14 PSI.

Congratulations. Good luck with your new machine.

Sounds like a good price for a DK 35se. I have an older model/style DK 35. (2001 model) I've been real pleased with it so far with just under 1400 hours. Nice tractor. Good luck in your search.

Congratulations. Good luck with your new machine.

All I can tell you is that I have a Kioti DK 35 and I have been very pleased with it. I have no experiance with the DK 55 or McCormick. So I can't help you much.

My Kioti is holding up very well. Nice tractor. I have around 1360 hours on it now. No problems. Have a nice Christmas
