Good Morning Chris and the wood yard. I had a kioti DK 4710 and I broke the right side frame holing the buck in and they told me that is a common thing for them and I had a ton of electric problems. Good luck trying to fix it totally. That is why now I have a John Deere 4046 and have never look back😮
I just wanna say Chris, keep doing what you are doing. So many channels I like are heading directions different from what got them to where they are. Sometimes sometimes the new direction is also fun. More often than not it seems to me they change for the worse. To each their own but I appreciate your consistency!
Big fan of the channel and u were the final CZcamsr to convince me to add selling firewood to my tree business during the winter even though I live in Florida. I started splitting this season and will have a plentiful amount to start selling for next season and using next winter for the season after and so forth so thanks for all this great info ur giving people like me. On another note, my dad owned news stations, media companies and businesses like that while I was growing up and I had a camera in my face growing up. I was thinking maybe u could do voiceovers while doing things like driving ur tractor, spitting firewood and things of that nature to give us insight on what’s going on in ur head and other information we could learn and use that ur doing. Thanks for all ur time and effort u put into for us.
Snow could lead to more firewood sales which is a good thing. Machines and equipment always seem to break at the worst times. Had a good laugh yesterday at my job with a guy who is a die hard blue oval fan, he said my truck was a polished turd (bow tie is the brand of truck I have). My response left him speechless: I like driving my polished turd, it is a truck and gets me and my family around just fine. Some people will argue over the smallest things but I have learned well from Chris, take it in stride and get back to work! 👍🏻 Read the other responses, glade it was just a gasket and covered under warranty Chris. Good Night Irene.
Hey Chris you have to get yourself a good skid steer with chains. All your attachments that you have would interchange with the skid steer. I considered a tractor before I bought my skid steer. Unless you need the PTO!!. The work your doing requires a much heavier machine in my opinion. I’ve been a heavy equipment operator for over 40 years and I always try and have the right equipment for the job. PS your one hell of a good worker and I like your advice of get out there and get er done. Good luck on the repair.
Yup a skid steer would be nice but the farm already has a few of them to use if needed and I don't have a spare $70k to spend on one just to move snow. You will see one of the skid steers in operation in a couple days on the big snow fall.
@@InTheWoodyard well keep up the good work Chris. You inspire me to work harder.so much so I tweeted my back today!! OUCH. I’ll be back at it tomorrow 😀😀
5 months ago, my DK4710 CAB unit had a hydraulic pump leak turned out to be a pump o-ring issue. Dealer replaced o-ring fixed issue until last week. Pump leaking again. 150-mile one-way trip back to the dealer today. The dealer ordered an entire new pump this time. I've owned orange in the past and had a few issues with that unit also. Bottom line, unfortunately crap happens. My tractor is 1 year old. However, i work this unit hard. Good luck, Chris. kioti is solid on their warranty. I have to say.
@InTheWoodyard It's unfortunate, but a gasket is no big deal. Hopefully, it'll be a fast turnaround. You spent the money, so work the unit and all the bugs out. 👍
Just removed a bunch of snow with my Kioti as well. I'm in Maine in a pretty sloped area, so I recently put some chains on the rear tires, and wow....what a difference. Doesn't look like you need them there, but I was super impressed with how well I could move massive piles of snow. I also put some inexpensive edge tamers on the bucket to prevent digging up my gravel
Hey Chris, you might already know this trick but if you take a piece of schedule 40 gas pipe about 2 inches in diameter or maybe some galvanized pipe from a galvanized fence post kind of slid down the middle of it and put it over the edge of your bucket, and pin it on, or bolt it on or something like that it’ll keep you from scalp in the ground so much. Like I said, you might already know this trick but just a friendly tip that’s all. Have a good weekend my friend.
As an industrial mechanic, when you drive something like you stole it. It will break. Slamming into those snow piles is hard on the hydraulic system. It's called shock loading. All that force is pushed back through the system. When driving and cranking the steering from lock to lock with 4 wheel drive on, that is hard on the front axel and universal joints. Driving with the wheels cranked all the way with the tires pushing sideways, which is a good way to knock a tire off the rim. If you keep driving that way, your mechanic is going to make a lot of money.
Dear Mr. Chris this is another great day, and another Rik of wood to be stacked,, Like a wood pecker pecking at a tree until i get a headache, watching your content lets me know im not out hear alone!
Sorry you had trouble with your Kioti. Hope it is an easy and inexpensive fix. I really enjoyed watching you both plow the snow. I liked the part where you shake the snow out of the blade at the end of each run.
Chris, I enjoyed watching your process for snow removal. If you scrape snow on asphalt or concrete alot I highly recommend an upgrade for your bucket. You can get a replaceable cutting edge for your kioti from the dealer for a couple Benjamin's. It will save your bucket from getting worn down on the edge.
Chris...Here in VA we don't get much snow but when we do my son works on a skid steer pushing the stuff in parking lots. They liberally spray Pam on the blade before they start and it keeps the snow from sticking. It seems to last most of the day/evening. May save some wear and tear on the hydraulics shaking the bucket.
G’morning Chris. One of my favorite things to watch while in my cubicle (getting PAID) is snow pushing videos. Sorry to hear about the busting of tractors. Nice action today. GoodNightIrene
Good Morning That does suck. Hope the shop is not backed up with repairs and you can get part of the fleet back at the farm. All in all, for the use the tractor gets, this being the first breakdown over three plus years shows some great durability. Hope it was just a blown seal. Thanks for all the cool camera angles. It looked like fun until it wasn't. Off to peck away at the Greendale Glacier. Just ate my Wheaties.
Great video! I believe you need chains and hard cranking to the left or right while spinning the tires and moving forward may break a front axle shaft. It has happened to me. Then I acquired some chains. 😊
We got that much a few days ago, shut the whole area down. Nashville. I hate cold and snow. Yeah for global warming!!! Good you saw the yellow snow before it all leaked out, hard to notice ibn the summer.
Tough luck video Chris. Sorry for your troubles. Hope the fix is easy and inexpensive. You don't need a lot of opinions about tractor operation. Break downs are part of ownership. GNI
Good morning Chris. Sorry bout the tractor breaking.that sux.i watched a 6pt working a scrape this morning. Came within about 15 yds.pretty buck.will be really nice next year GNI
I always comment too soon in the video. I can see now that you are using float. Very slippery ground. I'll bet you're wondering how the Kioti will do with a heavy snowfall. Sure is a lot of area to clear. Fun, fun in the woodyard.
Aww man! I hope it was an easy fix for the DK Chris! 🤞once it got to the dealer😬. Nice job getting the plowing done ✅. We’ll see you soon! Andrew from NB :)
What an indispensable tool your Kioti tractor is. And I'll bet you're having fun removing the snow too. Chris, have you tried using the float position on your bucket control? It would probably help with steering the tractor. Hit it all the way down and let go. Easy function, less operator input needed.
Have you ever tried using the split brakes for steering when plowing? It's a game changer. I tried last storm here in PA and liked being able to steer without needing weight on the front wheels. Cheers!
@InTheWoodyard there is a flap that joins the 2 brake peddles to make them work together. Flip that flap over and you can apply the left and right brakes separately to steer even if the front tires are off the ground. That was one of the features I liked about the DK series and help make my mind up to buy one. Hope that helps.
Bad year for the hydro transmissions.We had the same problem oil leaking from the center of the transmission. Dealer had to split the trans. It blew out the gasket. They replaced it with a steel gasket. 3000.00 also included a fuel injection pump the was leaking a little. Everything is working like new now.
Yup, I learned spanner wrench watching the best show ever...Top Gear! ( THE UK VERSION ...NOT THE CRAPPY USA ONE!) I also learned ...man sausage, completely mental, best mates, bloody hell, more power, boot, getting nicked, not steve..STIG!
Could lool at it this way. The engine wasn't blown and you were able to drive it up onto the trailer. Should be a warranty repair, so don't sweat it too much.
Leaking fluid. You know what that means.. Time to trade it in for the newest tractor with more options like Bluetooth and multi power ports to keep the cameras running. 😉👍
@@InTheWoodyard You must have a lot of money to burn up, you remind me of my dad, he could break or destroy a brand new tractor rather quickly.....😁😁😁😁😁
Bummer Chris. Hope it wasn't to bad and you got it Fixed. Seeing You sliding around with the Front. Convinced Me to get My Fronts filled and Chains on the Front to. WHo had the Little Cab Tractor ??
Mornin’ Chris, Sorry That is a bummer! I’ve bought a lot of old junk equipment thru the years and finally bought a new tractor in hopes it would last a while without me getting greasy working on it. You probably don’t have 300 hours on it. Hopefully something easy? Best of luck with it! John
Chris we had one pusher blade that it fitting in the Fork and push snow with it about 8 ft long push snow forward and backward it went very fast with the we cosed it with clamp fork hold it with the clamp sorry French hard to write
We only get so much snow here in NC but I hate pushing snow . What your doing would not be so bad . But shopping centers and appartments totally suck . Cars ,curbs manhole lids , cart returns and carts are always in the way .
Good you found a little snow bucket Chris , keep putting your WHITE GOLD in one ☝️ pile . By spring be as high as Beth barn if know the trick and operator skill in do it . Iiiii iiiii can do with CATS loader twice the high off Beth barn , you have NO PROBLEM with your tractor 🚜 to . We got a lot off farmer do it with 100 or plus horsepower farm tractor 🚜 in the farm yard with WHITE GOLD .
Ask your dealer for a bigger tractor loaner. Plus you can create some content in return. You pushed that little guy pretty hard with all the heavy snow.
I shredded my front differential gears in my little Ford tractor before the snow came I'm down to 2wd and it really sucks can't find replacement parts so thats just dandy!
Don’t see the point in moving tonnes of snow around the bins with unseasoned wood in. Clear paths to and around what you might sell. But can’t the rest can stay until it melts?
Kinda thought the same thing, l think he'll stack those piles a little more efficient next time. That was a lot of snow to move. Man l know it's fun to clear snow, but wow, and now your machine is down. Quick to take to dealer, what gasket failed? If l had a kioti, I'd want to know, good luck 🤞
It is all ready to sell NOW, it is all dry and if we move the snow the ground will freeze nice and hard so we can work again. No, 2 days latter we got 16" more and if you do not keep up it will bury you. Some years we get 40-50", you have to plan ahead, this is not the south.
We got 16" 2 days latter (you will see it soon) and it has to be moved or we would be buried. This is the north.It was just a gasket covered under warranty.
Gee, your tractor blows a gasket and all the internet "experts" are here to tell you everything you're doing wrong. This northern Minnesota farm boy says you're doing just fine.
Damn Chris, that really sucks. hope its nothing too serious or costly. so, which do you like better....the bucket or the pusher. don't really see the point of a pusher but we don't get much snow. maybe thats why.
Id send the young guy under there. Look for a punched oil filter or hose leak. Cold weather and hydrostatic drives are a common problem, most manufacturers offer a alternative fluid for cold operations. Even your average box store wood splitter will recommend the use of automatic transmission fluid in temps under something like 25F Where they recommend hyd, ISO-32 or 46 above freezing. . Lastly if they do have to split the tractor transmission for repairs. If its worn, Consider replacing the clutch on the engine, the 3 cylinder engines are hard on the center splines of the clutch. The more time at 700rpms the more abuse they generally get. Thus why ive recommend over the years to treat 1,000rpms as idle speed. Or simply turn it off. . Hydrostatic or gear drive, theres still a clutch on the output of the engine on every tractor ive ever delt with. . Anyway thats my 0.01c from thousands of miles away.
My body has one of those and it looks like. It could be in an area where the hydraulic filter for the transmission is located. Might have come loose or rushed through
Good Chris and wood hound , do you want my 988 B CAT loader with D 9 blade and snow wing . Iiiii iiii probably clean your woodyard in two passes Chris for you buddy . PLEASE sent it to 709 it WHITE GOLD to us guys 😊. We got clean sky this morning but it cool out Chris . 😊
@@InTheWoodyard Well That's good! I didn't fair quite as well this past weekend. I totaled my 2019 Expedition on Black Ice on Saturday pulling a trailer. I'm okay but still waiting on the insurance. I hate being without a truck. Jeff
@@InTheWoodyard understandable . What I like about Kubota is their service network around me and the fact that everything on a Kubota tractor is Kubota except for the tires .

Yup...on the to get list. Just a blown gasket covered under warranty.
Chris hope the tractor 🚜 is fixed soon and that you can get back to removing the god awful white stuff 😮😊❤
Yup, soon, just a gasket covered under warranty.
Good you found a little snow bucket Chris , keep putting your WHITE GOLD in one ☝️ pile . By spring be as high as Beth barn if know the trick and operator skill in do it . Iiiii iiiii can do with CATS loader twice the high off Beth barn , you have NO PROBLEM with your tractor 🚜 to . We got a lot off farmer do it with 100 or plus horsepower farm tractor 🚜 in the farm yard with WHITE GOLD .
We call it white death here nothing but extra work for us. If we contracted out for removal. $$$$$.. then yes gold!
Next time you see some Benjamin's. You should use those to buy tire chains.
Maybe...I just looked at some!!!
In Middle Georgia, we don't say "how many inches did we get" it more like "what year did it snow".😅
So far this year we have had about 7 snow falls and about 30" total....way behind the normal.
You folks have a much longer and more intense fall and winter than we do. Which helps your firewood business.
Ask your dealer for a bigger tractor loaner. Plus you can create some content in return. You pushed that little guy pretty hard with all the heavy snow.
Thanks for the tip!
I shredded my front differential gears in my little Ford tractor before the snow came I'm down to 2wd and it really sucks can't find replacement parts so thats just dandy!
Yup, stuff happens, my brothers TYM did that too.
I haven't even found a machine shop that will remake the gears and shafts needed without a massive bill
Don’t see the point in moving tonnes of snow around the bins with unseasoned wood in. Clear paths to and around what you might sell. But can’t the rest can stay until it melts?
Kinda thought the same thing, l think he'll stack those piles a little more efficient next time. That was a lot of snow to move. Man l know it's fun to clear snow, but wow, and now your machine is down. Quick to take to dealer, what gasket failed? If l had a kioti, I'd want to know, good luck 🤞
It is all ready to sell NOW, it is all dry and if we move the snow the ground will freeze nice and hard so we can work again. No, 2 days latter we got 16" more and if you do not keep up it will bury you. Some years we get 40-50", you have to plan ahead, this is not the south.
We got 16" 2 days latter (you will see it soon) and it has to be moved or we would be buried. This is the north.It was just a gasket covered under warranty.
@@InTheWoodyard just curious "what specifically" was the gasket or seal that failed, l understand it was covered through your warranty 🤔 take care
Darn that sucks! Hope it was an easy fix👍👍
Just a gasket covered under warranty!
Gee, your tractor blows a gasket and all the internet "experts" are here to tell you everything you're doing wrong. This northern Minnesota farm boy says you're doing just fine.
Thanks John, just a gasket and it is covered under warranty. I bought my tractor to use not to wax it.
Damn Chris, that really sucks. hope its nothing too serious or costly. so, which do you like better....the bucket or the pusher. don't really see the point of a pusher but we don't get much snow. maybe thats why.
I like the pusher way better.
Morning.
Hello!
Id send the young guy under there.
Look for a punched oil filter or hose leak.
Cold weather and hydrostatic drives are a common problem, most manufacturers offer a alternative fluid for cold operations.
Even your average box store wood splitter will recommend the use of automatic transmission fluid in temps under something like 25F
Where they recommend hyd, ISO-32 or 46 above freezing.
.
Lastly if they do have to split the tractor transmission for repairs.
If its worn, Consider replacing the clutch on the engine, the 3 cylinder engines are hard on the center splines of the clutch. The more time at 700rpms the more abuse they generally get. Thus why ive recommend over the years to treat 1,000rpms as idle speed. Or simply turn it off.
.
Hydrostatic or gear drive, theres still a clutch on the output of the engine on every tractor ive ever delt with.
.
Anyway thats my 0.01c from thousands of miles away.
Thanks for the info, it was just a gasket, covered under the warranty.
Good afternoon
Hello!
Cheer up its🎉 probably something cheap and easily fixed 😅🎉
Yup, just a gasket, covered under warranty.
Nothing worse than being at the mercy of a mechanic!
Was the leak from the hydrostatic transmission, or the pump, or something else? Thank you for posting interesting videos, I really appreciate it.
It was a blown gasket.
@@InTheWoodyard yes but on which component was the gasket located? Thank you.
My body has one of those and it looks like. It could be in an area where the hydraulic filter for the transmission is located.
Might have come loose or rushed through
Blown gasket, covered by warranty.
Oh dang that sucks,not good time of year for that,,,whats up with it? Is it okay now? Thanks Chris
Just a blown gasket covered under warranty.
Good deal then
Well that sucks, from your teaser I was hoping it was just a cracked hose,
Just a gasket, covered by warranty.
Looked tough to get traction when the bucket or pusher was full. Would new tires on the front or tires chain help?
chains, the tires are like new.
@@InTheWoodyard probably not too worried about that now!
We got pounded in Manitowoc. Almost 2ft
yup!
If you’re not breaking things you aren’t working hard / enough. Might switch to a thinner hydraulic oil for winner use if that’s a hydrostatic tractor
Yup, I bought it to use. It was just a gasket covered under warranty!
Nice it was only a gasket. 24:43
Yup!! And covered under warranty.
Great.
Good Chris and wood hound , do you want my 988 B CAT loader with D 9 blade and snow wing . Iiiii iiii probably clean your woodyard in two passes Chris for you buddy . PLEASE sent it to 709 it WHITE GOLD to us guys 😊. We got clean sky this morning but it cool out Chris . 😊
You can send any equipment that works we are not picky!
Bummer Chris! I hope it isn’t anything serious.
Just a blown gasket covered under warranty.
@@InTheWoodyard Well That's good! I didn't fair quite as well this past weekend. I totaled my 2019 Expedition on Black Ice on Saturday pulling a trailer. I'm okay but still waiting on the insurance. I hate being without a truck.
Jeff
Oh oh. That’s not good. Hope it’s not major trouble. I see a Massey Ferguson with cab tractor. Can it fill in while yours is getting fixed. ?
Just a gasket covered under warranty. Yup, it will.
@@InTheWoodyard that’s great. 👍🏻👍🏻
👍👍👍
Thanks!!!
That sux your tractor broke. Let us know what it was.
Chris I thought you were going to tarp the bins?
Just a gasket covered under warranty. Yup,l I wanted to but I was gone a lot. Not a big deal actually.
@@InTheWoodyard I got some snow blown onto my porch last week and now I have wood-sicles of Locust! 😆
jiggling the hydraulic everytime you dump sounds rough to me
Yup, but that is how it is done.
wow snow to much work
It aint for wimps!
Bummer. If I breakdown today @ -24F I'm screwed. Maybe I'll just stay inside.
Get outside an do something!
@@InTheWoodyard I did. I did.
Now you need hockey sticks and a puck?
Yup!
17°F winds 8-12 snow tonight thru tomorrow.... 1-3" or 2-6".... weather Guessers.....smh here in Ashville Ohio stay warm folks
The snow hasn’t been too bad here in Syracuse Area but the black ice got me. Totaled my 2019 Expedition on Saturday
@@adirondackwoodsman oh nooooo
We have about 20" on the ground now, the storm after this one was 16" you will see it soon.
ouch!
It happens,
Maybe some
Depends
Hey we all get old
Yup, just a blown gasket, covered under warranty.
@@InTheWoodyard I hope the new one lasts longer than the original
be safe
100% always!
Just another reason I went with Kubota!
Just a gasket covered under warranty. That same size tractor in a Kubota was $6,000 more so.....
@@InTheWoodyard understandable . What I like about Kubota is their service network around me and the fact that everything on a Kubota tractor is Kubota except for the tires .
@@roadglide1142Kioti is all Kioti as well (Daedong).
