Going through the 50 hour service process on the Kioti CK 3510. The process will be largely the same on the CK2610 and CK4010. The filters were provided by Armstrong Truck and Tractor. Their phone number is 724-548-1881
I apologize for the scrambled conclusion. Something happened during the upload process that rearranged some of the audio. I promise I’m not that scatterbrained haha
I watched about 4 other videos on the 50 hours service. Yours covered the fluids with the best camera angles and it was really well done. If I had found yours first, I wouldn't have wasted my time with the others. Thanks for a great video!
Great video. I was hesitant to do this myself but after watching your video, I saw how straightforward it was. Just finished my 50 hour service too w/o any issues. Thanks again!
I think we are in the same boat. New to “farm” life. (We don’t have a farm). Enjoyed the video. I started watching before doing the services on my tractor. I’ll have to check out more of your videos. You seem like a down to earth guy.
I’ve called them no less than 5 times with questions as a new tractor owner and they have always been very knowledgeable and really helpful. Great customer support
Very good post Adam, thank you. I have the CK2510 HST and required the 50 hour service this past season. My dealer offered that service and I quickly took him up on that. He drove right to the farm and tackled it in the barn. He has all the tools and fluids readily available. Although I am in central Pennsylvania I traveled up to Campbell, NY for the tractor purchase and the three seater UTV by Kioti. Jims Equipment. I would recommend him for both sales and service. Continued success and be safe.
@@HometownAcres I'm glad I made the purchase. Prior to the UTV I was either on foot hauling equipment or using the pick up truck. The Kioti UTV has been reliable and easy to operate. I was pleasantly surprised with the speed in high gear. Makes getting around a pleasure.....especially when you forget the phillips screwdriver....lol
Thanks for the great video. I live quite far from any Kioti dealer, or any tractor service shop, so I wanted to do this myself. Your video was very helpful. I too used two filter tools to remove a couple.
i am glad you found a good dealer to work with. That is one of the most important aspect of the deal and that is coming from me and i am a Deere dealer. we value the relationship more than the deal because a good relation last a life time
Adam, you left out one important thing! After getting all the filters and oil changed and put in new oils and check the oils. Now start the tractor up and for a few minutes and stop the tractor and now check all oils again! Remember oil filters have no oil in them until you start the engine!! also, check for leaks my friend.
I have a CK2610 but the service procedure is nearly identical. Just being more familiar with the location of drains, fill points and watching you go through the process was very helpful to me. Thank you for doing this. Very well done!
Nice video showing clear, easy to follow steps and filter location. One note, be sure to use the same brand hydraulic oil when topping off. Even though Kioti has multiple oils listed that can be used it does not mean they are safe to mix together. When swapping from one brand to another the manufacture of the oil should be consulted to see if their product can blend with the old or if it needs to be a complete change out.
Great video. I am about to do my first 50 hour maintenance as well. It was nice to watch your walk through to save me time hunting for each filter location. My dealer gave me a 50 hour kit with all the filters and oil. He also included a grease gun and walked me through all the grease points. I agree with your statement on going with the most helpful dealer, it makes all the difference. My dealer is Hendershot in Decatur tx.
I know where all the grease fittings on the loader are and where the one on the front differential is but I know there’s more on the underside of the tractor I should grease I just don’t know where they are
EXCELLENT VIDEO! I just bought a CK4010HST-SE and this will be very helpful! I've only got 28 hours on it so far, but anticipate having to do this in the next month or two.
Great work Adam and you explained the process very well. Great that you have a dealer you feel comfortable with and willing to help after they sold you the tractor. I also have a good dealer, they gave me all the filters for the 50hr service when they delivered the tractor and even though I've hadthe tractor for two years they stll call and see how it going. They also take back the used oil clean it up and filter it and sell it for cheap chainsaw bar oil, it works great.
How's she goin'? Nicely done Adam!!! If you look after your gear it will look after you!!! That was a good deal from Armstrong Truck and Tractor!!! When you have a dealer like that, willing to go the extra mile, well that's where you should direct your business!!! Thanks for posting and take 'er easy!!!
Hey Adam, Thanks for the Info. Did my 50 Hour service today. All went well, misplaced my manuals so you were a great help! Just a note, CKXX10 2 litres of oil per cylinder. Cheers,
Hey Adam, you did good on the 50 hour maintenance on the tractor. It was nice of your dealership to assist you and help as you needed. You are learning how to do the necessary chores on your equipment and I’m sure you have found google or you tube to be quite a good bit of help. Patients and understanding is the key when walking on unfamiliar territory. Just like garage and tool maintenance which will come to you more as you work with your tools and equipment. You are doing good. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks for the video Adam. I just got the ck3510 a month ago. Using it this winter to plow snow. I have a snow push box coming, but for now I’m using the edge tamers on my bucket. We’ve already had a few snowfalls here in Vermont. Unfortunately it’s come early to stay again, like last year. Typically it doesn’t come to stay until thanksgiving or after. I’m pleased with the edge tamers. If you ever do servicing on your fuel filter, please video if you get the chance. I’m interested in that. I hope to start filming useful info on the tractor myself. There’s not many helpful videos on these tractors yet and I want to help contribute to get more info out there. The ck 3510 is a big seller for Kioti, so hopefully we’ll see more videos coming. Have a good day
One step I always do when changing engine oil, regardless of what type of equipment its in, is , after 10 minutes of oil draining after its just dripping, is to briefly hit the starter just to rotate the engine a couple revolutions. If it does start shut it off as fast as possible. This doesn't hurt the engine because there is still plenty oil coating moving parts. You will then see an additional one cup to a pint of oil drain out. This is why I drain my own oil. Dealers and quick lube places don't take the time to get all the old oil out. Also, remind your viewers to make sure the oil drain plug still has the washer attached and didn't fall into your drain pan.
Thanks for sharing this process. I have a new DK6010SE HST, and LOVE it, but like you, I chose a dealer that's about 2 hours away because the dealer about 15 minutes away doesn't know how to answer the phone - Oh well, $34,400 mistake ;)
Nice job Adam, also very nice tractor keep it serviced and it should last a lifetime, very important thing also to lubricate is your U joints in the drive shafts especially if you have them on the shaft from the engine to the hydrostatic pump! Mine failed on my john deere at 240 hours cost me big bucks $ to repair hope that helps, take care buddy 👍
Thanks for the great video. I'm in the market for a new tractor and the CK3510SE HST is at the top of my list. You may have done this but you should run the engine and recheck the oil and hydraulic fluid after changing the filters as they will fill with oil and lower the fluid level a bit.
Yep I did this off camera and they did drop a bit so I topped them back off. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope you enjoy your new machine as much as I enjoy mine!
great job! Only thing I would have added is putting down a sheet of plastic or cardboard to protect that nice barn floor. There has to be a neater way to fill the hydraulic fluid. :) Happy Thanksgiving! you have a very nice place.
Nice video. Little advice look under tractor for all your censors and if they are really exposed look for a way to put a shield or guard over them. You get into brush or moving branches they will pull them off and shut your tractor down. Happened to me.
Great video 👍 Farm and Home or Rural King sells 2 gallon hydraulic fluid jugs if it's Kioti compatible they are very handy for filling up the hydraulic fluid small and compact. I'm at 49 hours man I'm way behind LOL.
Yep we went to Family Farm and Home. When I bought the log splitter there they told me I could take as many pallets as I wanted to stack wood on. So I’ve done all my business there since then. I’ve probably gotten 40 pallets from there haha. 1 small gesture on their part got my business for the rest of my life
Hello there. Just stumbled on to this video. Don't know why it hasn't come across previously being I've been looking at Kioti's. Anyway got to say I'm excited or got excited when I seen you mention Armstrong Truck and Tractor. That is where I have went to look at the Kioti brand. Main contact has been with Brian but talked with Shawn on the phone and in person at great lengths. Very down to earth, knowledgeable and helpful. Make ya feel like you've been friends for years. Anyway, can I assume you are from the Meadville area? (Judging from your shirt). I'm just south of Indiana PA. Btw, you just got a new subscriber so keep those videos coming. Gonna go get caught up now with you're other videos.
Hey thanks a lot buddy. Yeah they are great to deal with. Sean can sometimes be a little difficult to get ahold of because he’s so busy but that’s a good thing. Means they’ll be in business for many years to come to service the tractor. Yes I am in Meadville. Thanks for watching!
Where I come from the only tractors around are green or red. Not so familiar with kioti tractors. I looked into getting a mahindra 2 years ago but I was not impressed. That little tractor you have looks like a good one. Cool video, thumbs up
My neighbor is a John Deere guy and I see the way he’s been looking at my tractor haha. It really is a great tractor. I am very happy with the purchase
Doesn't it void the warranty if you service it yourself? The Kioti warranty from their website specifies that, but I would like to get some clarity. My dealer in Marion, TX wants $700 for the 50 hr service. They offered me a couple of free hats when I purchased the ck2610H tractor bundle, nothing else
I am saving this for reference when I do my 50 hr service on my ck3510SE. Question: do you know how to get the radiator screen out? Seems like it would just slide out but it looks like you have to take some stuff off to get to it.
Hometown Acres That’s the way other brands work but can’t figure out how this one does. I’ll check the owner’s manual just thought you might would know. Thanks my friend. Have a good one.
There are two wing nuts at the top of each screen (there are two screens split vertically. one nut for each screen). Then slide them out to the right and lift up. Pay attention to which goes where as they are handed (one right and one left). No need to remove anything to get them out.
Fantastic video! Stumbled upon it while doing my research on the Kioti brand. I am in Western PA myself and actually spoke with Sean late last night about the 35 horse unit. I tried Bobcat of Erie first and was disappointed to learn they were going to stop carrying the Kioti brand. Any regrets buying this unit over a New Holland or Kubota? I am less than 30 days away from pulling the trigger. Just want to make sure I'm making the right choice. I plan on keeping it for my lifetime. Any thoughts?
I do not have any regrets. I love my CK3510. If I were you I would definitely get a quick hitch for the back of the tractor if you plan on using any implements back there. It will save you a ton of time. Honestly the Kioti has the best in class loader lift capacity and I use every bit of it for moving firewood logs around. If I had gotten a kubota or new holland I would have been screwed trying to move big logs on more than one occasion. We post a lot of videos with the Kioti, check out some other ones to see what all we’ve used it for. Next time you talk to Sean, let him know you saw the 50 hour service video they sponsored. I’m sure he would like to hear that! Let me know what you end up getting
Also I forgot to mention the money you’ll save buying a Kioti. In my research I found they they were on average 15-20% cheaper in price compared to Kubota. I don’t know about you but I’m a value shopper. Here’s the link to the video right after we bought it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gOcq0JevXaI.html
@@HometownAcres thank you so much! I subscribed to your channel. I checked out a few other videos and like the content. I will definitely mention the video to Sean. I am supposed to have a formal quote from him today. I started off with 60 inch tiller, 9 inch post hole digger, and pallet forks. Curious if you have any experience with the backhoe? That could be the next thing I get for it. Also, any idea what insurance on the Kioti costs? Ballpark? Not sure where you are in Western PA but I am in Tionesta. Maybe we can connect one day? I also left the city to move here about 3 years ago. I'm a transplant from Virginia Beach. I bought an old farm and farmhouse. Couldn't be any happier! Thanks again....
Travis Daniels Travis Daniels the pallet forks are a must. I use mine almost more than the bucket. I’m in Meadville PA. My Buddy has a hunting camp up in Warren PA we drive through Tionesta to get there every year. So I don’t have any experience with the back hoe. I would have loved to have gotten one but it wasn’t in the budget. Sean invited us down for their open house March 27th and 28th. I’m gonna try to make it down there for that. I have called them numerous times with questions about offroad vs highway diesel, engine coolant, the 50 hour service. I always get somebody to answer my calls and usually end up shooting the shit about tractors for a half hour or so. I really like having Armstrong truck and tractor as my dealer
@@HometownAcres Good to know that your experience with them has been positive. I'm looking forward to developing a relationship with them as well. Maybe I'll see you at the open house! Best of luck to you on the farm and thank you for the insight!
Great video. I own a HST2610, and love it, am at 37 hrs, will do my own 50 hrs service, as I am 30 miles from my dealer. Just to clarify, you do fill trans/hydrostatic fluid both at the same place in the rear? Just curious as I see they use two filters, but just want to confirm same fill hole. Thanks again.
Hello I have a question about the Kioti CK3510 what did you pay for the tractor and loader with 3rd function?? I have a quote on a CK3510 I would like to see if it's a good deal. Thanks
I don’t remember exactly how much just the tractor loader and 3rd function are but my whole package that included: tractor, 4wd, hst transmission, loader, 3rd function hydraulics, rear tires loaded, floor mat, 72” box blade, 60” rotary cutter, and 2,000 lbs pallet forks was a cash price of $22,500 or 24,500 with 0% financing for 60 months
@@HometownAcres Thanks I had a quote for $18,800 for the tractor but I feel like that price can move down a bit. Thanks for the help maybe I will get a Kioti as a second Tractor.
@@HometownAcres Great news I Got them down to $17,500 over the phone for the CK3510 Team Stucker is getting a Kioti LOL. Blue and The Right Orange at our place.
@@HometownAcres I'm certain I will but my wife will be running this Kioti it's a (Hydrostatic transmission) she's has ran my tractor moving dirt she was a little bit unsure of the shuttle shift 😬. I told her Hydrostatic transmission is easier so she said get it. I will do a video in a few weeks when it's delivered and let everyone know what add on to the deal and where I bought the tractor. You guys have a great week.
Alright, I got to ask..... I just picked up a ck4010se hst from my local dealer and it is very stiff to select L M H when im stopped. I called my dealer and they said all HST are stiff like that and I need to give the forward/reverse pedal a little bump while pushing it into the range i would like. Is yours the same way? Sounds kinda fishy to me. Only experience I have with hst is on my fatherinlaws 3 series deere. And it slide into range buttery smooth.
Yes mine is the same way. It is a mechanical gear so if it doesn’t want to switch gears you have to roll forward or backward an inch or 2 and try again. Engaging the 4 wheel drive is the same way
AJ, my NX4510 is the same way. It annoys me but is fairly consistent and doesn’t seem to be getting any worse (more frequent). I spoke to my dealer about it and they said it is normal. It’s only really annoying because of the time waste - when I bump the throttle and then have to wait so as to not grind the gears. But I suppose the HST saves more time than that going back/forth between fwd/rev... 🤷♂️
@@CJ2APEEP its kinda a pain in the butt. Oh well. Seems to not be as bad now that I have a fee hours in the seat, or im just getting used to it. Wish they would just machine the gears will a little more shoulder so it would engage a little easier. I guess if thats the biggest issue I have im doing alright! 👍
I just bought a ck4010 how do you bypass the safety switch on the seat? I don’t want it to turn off every time I get off the tractor, I saw yours was running with nobody on it
Maybe try putting the transmission in neutral and activating the parking break. That might deactivate the sensor. I know that’s how my riding mower works that has a seat safety switch
Haha they are. A friend of mine works in an ER and any rags that don’t get used have to thrown out just because they were in the room. So I use them as disposable shop rags. It works great. I assume you work in the medical field having recognized them so easily?
