I'm the ignorant one the thread. We just purchased 8 acres. So I'm looking at tractors. Actually, I've been looking since this was a dream. Now, it's a reality. Ck2610 looks awesome. You made excellent points throughout, and I think, did a great job.
My neighbor has a Kubota L3301 with the bach hoe and brought it over for me to dig a couple of deep holes for posts, I have rocky hard clay and had roots to deal with. Wow these compact tractors with back hoes are impressive for what they can do. I have the 2019 Kioti CK2610 and can see it with this back hoe on it in the near future. Thanks for this awesome Kioti video. Nice and informative
Quick tip, when you are digging you keep digging yourself ramps. With lighter backhoes you need to do down to the depth you want and then never make it ramp up towards you. Do not move more than 1 bucket length past where you were until the depth is the same. It is hard to dig from the top down but easy to dig from the side in. I hope that makes sense and helps a little.
Looks like you are trying to dig too deep in a single pass. If you deep 2/3's of the way on the first pass and make it a longer pass to fill the bucket, then on the second pass go to your finished depth, you will find the tractor can dig faster with less strain. You end up moving the same amount of dirt every 2 passes, but by breaking the softer top soil and grass root structure on the first pass, you allow the bucket to cut more easily in the deeper rock and shale.
I have a 2014 kioti ck30 with a kb2475 backhoe. I'm having a difficult time finding replacement teeth for the 16inch bucket. The dealers around here are not much help. Can you help?
I hear it squeaking when you move it to the side,did you even bother to grease it,or will you just beat the piss out of it then pass it off as new to an unsuspecting customer.

That makes a lot of sense. I will do that the next time I dig. Thank you for the tip!
Very helpful for a new kioti owner.
Thanks for the video. Looking at buying this setup.
Love the machine, I have the same model and put a Michigan Iron Works hydraulic thumb on it. Works awesome.
The dealer I went through gave me a 9" bucket along with the 12" that came with it
Nice work... How deep did you dig your ditch?
I think I want to be a tractor salesman
Those are big foot add ons on the stabilization legs, right?
Asked and now answered in the vid later.

😆 Ah, the trailer dwelling, unwashed peasant has spoken!
every time you pivot left, we can hear it whine, something needs to be greased..
Swivel seats suck!
You're digging to far away from you
