I have a 2020 DK 5310se hst with 380 hrs now and it's been an awesome tractor. I have a sawmill with a 4 man crew and this tractor gets worked every day.
I have the exact same tractor and couldn’t be happier. 250 hours and no issues. My dealer is only 15 minutes away and their service is top notch. I have a grapple and a woodland mills chipper that are perfect for my set up which is clearing land for hunting. Great video.
I have 330 or so hours on my CK 2610 HST . Got it in July of 2019. With all the implements/ attachments I put it to work with it has been a great tractor. It had a leaky radiator that was replaced under warranty. They picked up the tractor, replaced it and delivered back home with no cost to me. It has been 100% reliable and 100% happy. I too would buy Kioti again if I decide to go get another one
With 400 plus hours & 4years you have almost broke a Utub record with your rig. At 600.oo$ every 200hrs of servicing, that's not cheep, you must really like that "hydrostatic unit".Thanks for the great Video Sir and happy safe tractoring.
i feel like 600 every 200 hours isn't that much, just in the time ive put 60 hours on my l2501 that sure is a lot ive work i've done with it, can't imagine another 150 almost
I’ve got a CK3510se my self and love it. I’ve noticed mine has done a regen closer to the 50 hour mark each time. Though I run mine close to the 2400 RPM mark most of the time when it’s In use so possibly burns a good bit more off? Even when I am doing lighter FEL work I still have it revved up. I’ve read that motor is just happiest there. But you will admittedly use more fuel. I have come across a couple small issues with mine as well but nothing that wasn’t corrected under warranty. Nice unit my friend, all the best from Canada!
Hi Wes, I've been looking at these tractors pretty hard. I was glad to hear about the dealership in Chatsworth now, I had no idea. I'm in Ellijay. If you don't mind, where did you purchase yours?
Hey there. I’m happy to help. That is the whole reason I make these little videos. I watched a lot of videos and read lots of forums before making my purchase. Franklin Tractor in Cartersville. They gave me a good deal on my trade (New Holland TC33D) and easy to deal with. But they are just a little too far away.
Wes, If you could do it all over again would you have still went with the hydro or would you have went with the manual. I have the 2610 hydro but often wish I would have went with the manual or shuttle shift. Just curious to your thoughts on this question as I feel like I would have more pulling power had I just went with the other transmission options as the hydro seems to consume to much of the HP plus the noise decibels would be much less and not require hear protection . Thanks, Don
D P. Absolutely I’d still go with the hydro, especially with compact tractors. It makes mowing and loader work so much easier and faster. I don’t have an issue with lack of power. The hydro has no problem spinning the tires if it in low range. Now, if most of what you do is plowing then maybe the gear drive would be easier on the transmission. I do plow some with mine and I have no trouble pulling the 800+ lb disk. As far as hydro noise; the only time that it really annoys me is when it’s cold and the oil has not heated up. After a few minutes I don’t notice it.
Also, this video got me to thinking. At work so can't look up in manual. What is the service interval before the 400 hr? I'm currently at 160 hours on my 2017.
Sorry about that. Seems some people have trouble hearing over the wind and others don’t. It was windy that day and I don’t have a mic which would have helped.
Just bought a CK2620SE and its refreshing to see all of the folks that love their Kioti. Thanks for sharing.

BTW they can keep those green yard ornaments and I will keep my orange workhorse.

Glad to hear. I know your channel and have watched many of your videos. Take care and keep them coming.
I have the exact same tractor and completely agree, I love mine. Good video.

Great video. Just ordered my 3510 and hope to get it in a few weeks.
Thanks Merlin. I think you are going to love it!
Such a great machine!
I agree!
Thanks for the review of the Coyote. Looks like you have a nice place.
Kioti !

Good to hear. Best to you as well.
Thanks Terry. It’s my wife’s grandfathers place that we bought and built on.
Nice tractor
Thank you

@@wesfogle3311 Thank you for the reply. I was looking at going all the way to Tennessee to Larry Stovesands , so alot closer to me. Thanks again.

@@wesfogle3311 thanks for taking the time to answer my question.
I’m in the market for a new tractor. What is the name of the dealer and where are they located?
Thanks.
Drifters Trading. Chatsworth GA
Wish my 4010 was that clean! LOL
Also, this video got me to thinking. At work so can't look up in manual. What is the service interval before the 400 hr? I'm currently at 160 hours on my 2017.
@@mckeemichael1 I believe it is 200 Hrs. That is when I did mine and I am pretty sure that is what was recommended. Then 400hrs was the next.
@@wesfogle3311 What I was thinking. Thanks!
Can't hear you
All I can hear is wind noise
Sorry about that. Seems some people have trouble hearing over the wind and others don’t. It was windy that day and I don’t have a mic which would have helped.
@@wesfogle3311 I'm listening on surround sound system and I think that's making it worse
