    You do work em hard that’s for sure. That power steering gets a workout when you’re steering with a loaded bucket not moving yet. My power steering is so smooth on mine but I have some play in there that needs adjusting. My manual shows 2 points of adjustment for tightening the steering back up.

    back in 2007 i bought a new kioti DK55 and bought a blade like you have, that was one super heavyduty blade. i cut into hard shale with no problem with it. i sold the tractor a couple years later because those tractors had the fuel tanks underneath with a pipe joining them, problem is if you had a half a tank of fuel and got on a hillside the fuel ran to the low side and the engine starved of fuel. thats not good in the west virginia mountains

    • @khtractors

    Seems like the front wheels over pull the rears a bit. I bet they do this on purpose because it’s better than the rears pushing the fronts. It’s hard to get all equal when tire sizes are so much different.

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  8 місяців тому

      I think it’s because my rears are 28” wheels and some come with 30” and still run the same front tires.

    Hi, I'm looking at building a driveway to my home and have a Kioti RX7320. Would you recommend a 6 way front mounted dozer blade or a rear mounted 6 way blade?

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  3 роки тому +1

      Personally I’d recommend the setup I have, using the rear blade and loader bucket together. A 6 way front blade would be very costly. Something I think would be nice is a 4 in bucket, that way a person could use it as a blade and a bucket. Thanks for watching!
