  • Last video I showed the process to turning up the fuel injection pump on my Kioti CK2610 tractor for more power, now I get to test and see if it made a noticeable difference! Also managed to damage a wheel along the way

    I have the exact same finishing mower. SGM 72. Bought it new in 2022. Mine is LMC branded (painted red, imported by Lowery Manufacturing in Boaz, Alabama. It’s the same mower that Agri Supply sells, that they call a Grizzly. The mower is made by Shaktiman in India. They are well built, quality made mowers.

    I have run a 6’ WAC finish mower since 2008 on my kioti ck 20 ( 20 hp)No issue, plenty of power.
    It runs a 4’ bush hog fine.
    I had all four tires foam filled when it was new. It was worth the money: no flats, no bent rims.
    I imagine getting new tires will be a bit more difficult.

  • @ifyoutip
    @ifyoutip Před 2 lety +11

    The secret to running a 72" finish mower with a 25hp tractor in good grass without bogging it down is to have a rear discharge mower. A rear discharge mower generally is much more efficient with power. A side discharge must not only cut the grass but must then rapidly move it a great distance with a great volume of air along baffles across the deck and finally through a small discharge outlet. Power is transferred from the gearbox to the blade. The blades on a side discharge generally have a much larger airfoil on them to create the force necessary to move the grass and air. The blades then wear out much quicker because of all the extra work they are doing compared to on a rear discharge. And that goes along with belts and bearings and fuel usage and etc. How do I know? I have a kioti 2610 with a 4030 loader. I also have a few box blades and mowers. I personally like the bush hog brand of 3pt mower but there are many good ones out there.

      Because if I used a piece of wood, it would have dampened the blow and it was a very light hammer as it is. To be honest, I really didn't expect the wheel to bend back as easily as it did, so once I saw progress I continued with it. I've already got the paint touched up

    • @upstategearheads
      @upstategearheads  Před rokem +1

      I've honestly never checked the rear tire pressure but I believe they are around 20. They are filled with Rim Guard and you'll probably get some residual fluid blowing out the valve stem into your tire pressure gauge when you check the pressure, regardless of if the valve stem is at the top or not. They say to just use a cheap, disposable gauge but I don't have one. The fronts however I run almost to the max, usually 35-40 psi

But for someone who's work around grass at a customers house, I can understand where the excavator would destroy the lawn with the tracks

    • @brett9736
      @brett9736 Před rokem

      I know this is a dated post but 9 months flies and maybe the info can help. I bought the 2610 w the hoe attachment and when I received the equipment my first impression was an $8500 gardening tool. I was disappointed but i kept it parked it out back.
      I recently needed to do a fair amount of excavating due to an electrical feeder cable having a break somewhere along a 150ft stretch. I broke out the hoe and started digging, code is 24" minimum for an electrical cable, i figured i could get there in most spots. Who knew previous owner dropped the cable in at 60" plus, would have never guessed it. The soil is nasty clay with slabs of shale like rock and is impossible to hand dig with a shovel. (I know how to operate a shovel with the best of em but not a back hoe). I am so completely pumped i added the hoe to my tractor upon purchase. It is a steep price for any tool, I get it. But I've had to dig up the majority of this cable and whether I'm punching through the clay and shale layer or doing fine maneuvers around said cable this tractor hoe setup is bada$$.
      Only two complaints, first is I wish it were bigger as in longer reach. I find it somewhat limited but only after i have dug a 6x4x6 hole in the earth. The reach issue is almost 90% addressable with a small tractor relocation.
      Second complaint is that the how assembly is somewhat of a bitch to put back on the tractor. But I'm a newb and at least 50% of the issue is me related.
      Ok three items. The third is that i can't reach the throttle control from the excavator seat. I have to have long dowel with hook on the end to make throttle adjustments for hydraulic power.
      Aside from those, the gardening tool is one beast of a digging apparatus and would recommend to anyone looking to purchase to do so with the initial financing package.

  • @goingoutdoorswithmatt7962

    Please don't say the Bobcat and Kioti tractors are identical. That just isn't true. The lifting capability on the Kioti is much higher than the Bobcat by a large margin. The Bobcat is around 938lbs and the Kioti is 1835lbs. They are similar is a lot of ways due to the same parent company making both. So some of the parts are the same. Different wiring also between the 2. Obviously people looking to buy a tractor need to do their own research. But coming to CZcams is part of the research. Just a heads up. I am curious about using th HP on the 2610 to get the most out of it. Are you done doing all the necessary adjustments so the timing is all correct? How is it running now if you did do it? It's just nice to know that the option is there and it works.

    • @upstategearheads
      @upstategearheads  Před rokem +3

      The only difference between the Bobcat and the Kioti are the loader, that's it. And the Bobcat lift capacity is 1369 @ 500 mm (20 inches) ahead of the pivot pin whereas the Kioti is rated at 1835 at the pin, so two different ratings but work out to be nearly the same performance from the seat, not nearly 1,000lbs different.
      I have not done the timing adjustment yet. It runs identically to when it did before making the fuel adjustment, just with much more power. I haven't seen a single disadvantage to it yet

      Thanks for replying back. I have been looking to get a tractor. The Kioti CK2610 is at the top of the list. The big reason is the lift capacity. My issue is I don't have a dealer near me. If the Bobcat lifts the same as the Kioti, which you say does or is close. I stand corrected. I do have a Bobcat dealer kinda near me. Not sure if they sell tractors. But I will find out. I may have to put the Bobcat at the top now. That would be huge for me. I of course will have to research and find the true lift capacity of the the 2. Would be a homerun if they are the same. I appreciate the feedback. Again thank you.

Not to mention the dealer is a smaller, local guy who is great to deal with and the R14 tires are not available on the Bobcat and I wouldn't trade them for the world

      I covered how to turn up the fuel in the previous video
      The mower bolts are tight. They are designed to have slop so the mower can float over the contour of the ground
      I don't have much issue lining up the loader and I'm not sure how you'd get a spud wrench in from the backside to allow you to insert the pin from the outside. There's not enough room between the loader and the hood.
      But I appreciate the observations though!

      @@upstategearheads the mower bolts should pivot on the bolts, not flop around.
      I use the spud wrench sticking it in the pin holes and doing fine tuning to the alignment of the pins. If you "weren't having problems" you wouldn't need to kick the pins like you do.
      Not just giving you a hard time bud, I use my tractors to make a living every day and just sharing my experience.

      The mower originally had a collar on those bolts so that when they were inserted in the holes there wasn't any movement in the deck. It was totally rigid side to side and wouldn't allow it to float over the ground at all. It's designed so you can remove the bolts to allow it to follow the contour of the ground better but I found that when I did that, the mower lift points would just pivot vertically before lifting the deck, making it a pain in the ass. I found that if I installed the bolts without the collar it allowed enough movement to float yet still lift the deck reasonably

      @@upstategearheads watching your vid again, you may not understand a better way to use the "mower". The rear on yours is too high, you want that at the height you want the final cut to be (say 2") and the front you actually want to run a couple inches higher than that. Most of your vid you're almost dragging the ground with the front and the rear isn't doing anything by time whatever needs to be trimmed reaches the back. Again not bustin your chops, just telling you what I experience daily.

      angle is sloped to the front a little too much... Mine gets slopped and banged around everwhich way when not on flat ground. I even use it sometimes to chip/mulch small 2-3" tree limbs a Quick down & Up when I don't have a chipper available. My Bush hog ain't new and getting older faster

    The way you run stuff you would never touch anything of mine. Rev up on cold start, kicking shit, no idea proper way to do loader.

      Care to explain to me the "proper way to do a loader"? Could you see the temperature gauge to know if it was cold? Would it have been better to beat the pin in with a hammer instead of the gently sole of my shoe? Please help improve me as an operator....

      Have had a few tractors with loaders and will admit not all are in “perfect” alignment but usually it’s just floating the loader arms a bit. Bet your not a mechanic or mechanical but I like the content so keep up the good work !!
      “Hammer shoe” needs a patent pending disclaimer

      I cringed at the wife helping. Mine tried to help me put the hoe on, 4.5 flipn hours later, pissed off as all hell, we finally got it on and pinned. My rookie ism did not help but the lack of mechanical aptitude, giving a shit and just plain ol chic from Venus were more of hindrance than i thought possible. My buddy and i did it the next time 15 minutes, second try and she was pinned and ready to dig.
      Adder: my wife and i were in flat concrete and my buddy and i were in a crooked, uneven prairie surface. No chics allowed in the barn, using tools, or driving the equipment. lol just kidding, kind of.
