Kioti CK3510 tractor. Can it pull down a tree?? 

When you hook up attachments, shut off your motor, release the pressure in the hydraulic system by moving the valves after the motor is shut down, then make connect, or disconnect your fittings. Goes a lot easier, and a lot less mess. Enjoy your new machine!

I also have the same tractor CK3510 se cab and I have about 90 hours on mine with absolutely no issues thus far. I generally used mine to move logs around for firewood cutting but have also moved/spread 40 tons of gavel and plowed snow a number of times. Nothing better than air and heat! Enjoyed the video!

That was freakin’ cool!! Props to the steady hands on that camera!

Great job you and you wife did

A job that would’ve been a few hours by hand limbing and all, was quick easy work! Good stuff!

Hey Buddy, I have same tractor, open station for about 9 months. So far, couldn’t be happier. It has exceeded my expectations. Grapple is best thing since sliced bread. Can’t tell you how many hours it has saved me with tree and brush clean up. I would definitely advise some kind of guard to go inside the factory grill guard. Sooner or later a limb is going to find its way in and damage the front grill. I made my own out of some expanded metal. They are a few guys out there that are now making and selling them for this model. As the other gentleman commented, definitely want to have tractor off and pressure relieved when connecting 3rd function. Shouldn’t lose any fluid following that method (or at least it works for me). Can’t remember if I saw that you got a set of pallet forks with your deal. I had decided not to get set and then changed my mind. Probably my most used attachment. That are thousand things you can use them for that you normally think about. Anyway, I’ve rambled on enough. Enjoying your videos and glad you are enjoying your tractor. - Jeff (from eastern NC)

Good job

Just subbed, I am thinking about getting a 3510se with backhoe. I have watched many kioti videos, but every one has just a few hours, I'll watch too see how it goes. Thanks for your time

Great video no sure why you would be making mess with oil with your quick disconnects they should just plug in you would get a few drops but that should be it

My suggestions on the quick disconnects (QD's), always shut the tractor off, then turn the key to ON or RUN (not START), then work the 3rd function hydraulics both ways, several times. Do this both when connecting AND disconnecting (you can easily disconnect the fittings and leave the attachments line pressurized otherwise). I would also try hooking up the female side of the grapple first, then the male side into the female side on the loader. I wouldn't think this would matter if the pressure is completely released though. I believe that the key needs to be in the ON position with the tractor not running to release the pressure in the lines, just working it while OFF and the key NOT "ON" will not release the pressure in the lines. (full disclosure, I went with 1/2" flat face skid steer style connectors for my 3rd function, to be sure there was no....spillage..... EXPENSIVE QD's though, have considered switching the rear's as well, (4) females on the rear so all the attachments could use the less expensive male QD's, but have not gone to that extreme yet...) The CK definitely has a tight turning radius which is nice, just noticed that it caused the outside front tire to scrub a bit which will cause more wear, so I would only do that when you really need to, and on wet grass it would likely tear up some grass. Other suggestion (one I am guilty of often as well) is to park the tractor with the bucket flat on the ground, that cutting edge will not be fun to find with your ankle and is a tripping hazard when up, I am always doing this with the pallet forks, LOL.... And to make things easier on your back, lift the log up to waist height or so when your bucking the log, then you won't have to lean over (just watch your toes for falling chunks of wood....). Please don't take any of the above as criticisms or critiques, I hope they are just helpful observations (I am still figuring this stuff out as well, though there is no video evidence of the lessons I'm teaching myself). Great video (with lots of angles too), especially with the family getting involved!! That would have taken the whole day without the tractor, and you'd be wiped out, the Kioti made easy work of that, have a good one!!

you could swap out the ag couplers on the 3rd function and grapple with flat face ones. They don't leak when connecting/disconnecting, but you still need to shut it off and relieve pressure.

Goog job friend, hate to sound like captain obvious saying this, I have a ck3510 and I attempted similar feats just to find out that with a tractor you get far more torque pulling from the back of the tractor, also, it is far less taxing on the bucket and its mechanism since it is designed to push and lift not for pulling. Once again good job good video and thank you for sharing.

I bought a TYM 264 last spring. I started noticing all these Korean tractors have tiny buckets yet high lift capacities. After owning it a while I think I know why. The hydraulics on these compacts will lift way more than they list. My TYM says 1400 in the bucket, not at the pin and it will lift considerably more than that. I guess the buckets are smaller for safety. I was sooo close to buying a Deere, but the more I shopped I ended up buying a bigger tractor with a better warranty and saved $4k on the tractor and another $900 in sales tax. Dealer 45 minutes away, but I had everything I need to trailer the tractor if I can't fix something.

How much work would it have been if you cut the tree in the first place????????

You can't have the tractor running when attaching or disconnecting hydrau lic couplers ,then shake loarder stick to relieve pressure and then do your coupling

"PEOPLE" A power washer exposes those feeder roots in no time, then making it easy to cut and remove the root system. Hydraulic erosion 😊

I have the 2610. Both rear axle housings cracked. I was told that kioti will not warrant them. Not happy with them. Tractor only has 300hrs on it.

If you would have attached the chain to your draw bar instead I think it would have pulled it right over without issue.

I was going to like your videos, however you send my work wife flowers and extra things and leave me out!! All because I don’t want you taking her from me at work I need my counter part!!!!🤷‍♀️🤣🤷‍♀️

Shut the engine off!
