#39 50 Hour Service on Kioti CK3510

[@HometownAcres]

I apologize for the scrambled conclusion. Something happened during the upload process that rearranged some of the audio. I promise I’m not that scatterbrained haha

[@quintonayaan4440]

[@raymondroberts1905]

"They're put on pretty tight from the factory" understatement of the year lol. Damn thing was on TIGHT!

[@kc8ncr]

I watched about 4 other videos on the 50 hours service. Yours covered the fluids with the best camera angles and it was really well done. If I had found yours first, I wouldn't have wasted my time with the others. Thanks for a great video!

[@hlaible7102]

Great video. I was hesitant to do this myself but after watching your video, I saw how straightforward it was. Just finished my 50 hour service too w/o any issues. Thanks again!

[@hawk-mid-westadventures2461]

I have a CK2610 but the service procedure is nearly identical. Just being more familiar with the location of drains, fill points and watching you go through the process was very helpful to me. Thank you for doing this. Very well done!

[@blacksheephomerepair9250]

I too have a CK3510 that I purchased at Armstrong Truck and Tractor. Sean and his staff are the absolute best.

[@HometownAcres]

I’ve called them no less than 5 times with questions as a new tractor owner and they have always been very knowledgeable and really helpful. Great customer support

[@Nancy-kj5ed]

Thanks for the great video. I live quite far from any Kioti dealer, or any tractor service shop, so I wanted to do this myself. Your video was very helpful. I too used two filter tools to remove a couple.

[@seditiouslibel]

Very good post Adam, thank you. I have the CK2510 HST and required the 50 hour service this past season. My dealer offered that service and I quickly took him up on that. He drove right to the farm and tackled it in the barn. He has all the tools and fluids readily available. Although I am in central Pennsylvania I traveled up to Campbell, NY for the tractor purchase and the three seater UTV by Kioti. Jims Equipment. I would recommend him for both sales and service. Continued success and be safe.

[@HometownAcres]

That sounds like a pretty sweet deal. How do you like the Kioti UTV?

[@seditiouslibel]

@@HometownAcres I'm glad I made the purchase. Prior to the UTV I was either on foot hauling equipment or using the pick up truck. The Kioti UTV has been reliable and easy to operate. I was pleasantly surprised with the speed in high gear. Makes getting around a pleasure.....especially when you forget the phillips screwdriver....lol

[@angryman71]

EXCELLENT VIDEO! I just bought a CK4010HST-SE and this will be very helpful! I've only got 28 hours on it so far, but anticipate having to do this in the next month or two.

[@geraldchaplin947]

i am glad you found a good dealer to work with. That is one of the most important aspect of the deal and that is coming from me and i am a Deere dealer. we value the relationship more than the deal because a good relation last a life time

[@josephhoffman982]

Nice video showing clear, easy to follow steps and filter location. One note, be sure to use the same brand hydraulic oil when topping off. Even though Kioti has multiple oils listed that can be used it does not mean they are safe to mix together. When swapping from one brand to another the manufacture of the oil should be consulted to see if their product can blend with the old or if it needs to be a complete change out.

[@AnAlaskaHomestead]

I think we are in the same boat. New to “farm” life. (We don’t have a farm). Enjoyed the video. I started watching before doing the services on my tractor. I’ll have to check out more of your videos. You seem like a down to earth guy.

[@Shambala_G]

Great walk through - I never would have guessed you were new to this. You handled it like a pro 👍

[@adamfriday6831]

Great video. I am about to do my first 50 hour maintenance as well. It was nice to watch your walk through to save me time hunting for each filter location. My dealer gave me a 50 hour kit with all the filters and oil. He also included a grease gun and walked me through all the grease points. I agree with your statement on going with the most helpful dealer, it makes all the difference. My dealer is Hendershot in Decatur tx.

[@HometownAcres]

I know where all the grease fittings on the loader are and where the one on the front differential is but I know there’s more on the underside of the tractor I should grease I just don’t know where they are

[@davehudson4607]

Hey Adam, Thanks for the Info. Did my 50 Hour service today. All went well, misplaced my manuals so you were a great help! Just a note, CKXX10 2 litres of oil per cylinder. Cheers,

[@markjones4090]

Great work Adam and you explained the process very well. Great that you have a dealer you feel comfortable with and willing to help after they sold you the tractor. I also have a good dealer, they gave me all the filters for the 50hr service when they delivered the tractor and even though I've hadthe tractor for two years they stll call and see how it going. They also take back the used oil clean it up and filter it and sell it for cheap chainsaw bar oil, it works great.

[@HometownAcres]

Wow. That’s above and beyond service. That’s just good business there. Thanks for the comment buddy. Take care!

[@davidlewis7382]

Nice video, I have CK3520 and just love Iam about ready to the 50 service myself this helped lot!

[@nickf8028]

Bought my 1st place in rural NH in 2018, just added a ck3510se to the lineup....your videos are a huge help!

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Hey Adam, you did good on the 50 hour maintenance on the tractor. It was nice of your dealership to assist you and help as you needed. You are learning how to do the necessary chores on your equipment and I’m sure you have found google or you tube to be quite a good bit of help. Patients and understanding is the key when walking on unfamiliar territory. Just like garage and tool maintenance which will come to you more as you work with your tools and equipment. You are doing good. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@HometownAcres]

Thanks for being so supportive of the channel. I love reading your comments. Always so positive and reassuring!

[@chadbrocious8274]

Nice video. Shout out to Sean and Armstrong Tractor. Good people who know the tractor business.

[@HometownAcres]

Yep. Great people to work with

[@kurtkovich1359]

Thanks for putting this out. This was very useful for my 50-hour on my Kioti DK5310SE.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks for sharing this process. I have a new DK6010SE HST, and LOVE it, but like you, I chose a dealer that's about 2 hours away because the dealer about 15 minutes away doesn't know how to answer the phone - Oh well, $34,400 mistake ;)

[@deanwilson7047]

Right on Mines coming up soon.....45 hours on the Kioti now Thanks for the video man!

[@Jo-tw8kr]

Thanks, huge help in October 2024.

[@marksparkplug7758]

Great job Adam, you are well on your way with the longevity of your tractor plus the satisfaction and pride. See ya next video buddy.

[@HometownAcres]

Thanks buddy! I hope to have this tractor for a long time!

[@larrywalters6195]

Adam, you left out one important thing! After getting all the filters and oil changed and put in new oils and check the oils. Now start the tractor up and for a few minutes and stop the tractor and now check all oils again! Remember oil filters have no oil in them until you start the engine!! also, check for leaks my friend.

[@Bediasman]

Thank you, picking up my CK3510 tomorrow.

[@HometownAcres]

What state are you in?

[@Bediasman]

Hometown Acres live in Texas

[@Bediasman]

Delivered yesterday and having a great time leveling off my drive. Enjoy your videos, helping me understand my 3510 better. Thanks

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Love these types of videos! great job buddy! 👍🚜

[@HometownAcres]

Thanks Buddy. We’ll find out if I messed something up the next time I work it haha

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

Yo CJ!!!! Hope all is well Bud!!

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? Nicely done Adam!!! If you look after your gear it will look after you!!! That was a good deal from Armstrong Truck and Tractor!!! When you have a dealer like that, willing to go the extra mile, well that's where you should direct your business!!! Thanks for posting and take 'er easy!!!

[@HometownAcres]

Thanks a lot buddy. Yeah I am very greatful. The filters would have been about $155 so it was very nice of them. I would recommend them to anybody

[@daveholmes123]

Nice job Adam, also very nice tractor keep it serviced and it should last a lifetime, very important thing also to lubricate is your U joints in the drive shafts especially if you have them on the shaft from the engine to the hydrostatic pump! Mine failed on my john deere at 240 hours cost me big bucks $ to repair hope that helps, take care buddy 👍

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

Take care of the things that take care of you. Very much enjoy videos like this. Hope all is well & Dirty Jersey out!!!

[@HometownAcres]

That’s exactly right. Thanks for commenting Mike. Take care!

[@kayeyeager8006]

Thank you for a great video. I'm a newbie at this as well. Now, you can add a girl to the list of many devoted followers.

[@DubberGuy12]

Thanks for the video Adam. I just got the ck3510 a month ago. Using it this winter to plow snow. I have a snow push box coming, but for now I’m using the edge tamers on my bucket. We’ve already had a few snowfalls here in Vermont. Unfortunately it’s come early to stay again, like last year. Typically it doesn’t come to stay until thanksgiving or after. I’m pleased with the edge tamers. If you ever do servicing on your fuel filter, please video if you get the chance. I’m interested in that. I hope to start filming useful info on the tractor myself. There’s not many helpful videos on these tractors yet and I want to help contribute to get more info out there. The ck 3510 is a big seller for Kioti, so hopefully we’ll see more videos coming. Have a good day

[@HometownAcres]

I know I love my ck3510. I know you will too. I’ll do as many as I can on the tractor. Thanks for watching buddy. Take care!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Good job Adam.

[@HometownAcres]

Thanks Hank!

[@garymeyer3294]

One step I always do when changing engine oil, regardless of what type of equipment its in, is , after 10 minutes of oil draining after its just dripping, is to briefly hit the starter just to rotate the engine a couple revolutions. If it does start shut it off as fast as possible. This doesn't hurt the engine because there is still plenty oil coating moving parts. You will then see an additional one cup to a pint of oil drain out. This is why I drain my own oil. Dealers and quick lube places don't take the time to get all the old oil out. Also, remind your viewers to make sure the oil drain plug still has the washer attached and didn't fall into your drain pan.

[@vaanes]

Wow I had no idea that you lived so close to me. Cool to see a Western PA guy on here!

[@HometownAcres]

I’m between Grove City and Erie. How close are you!

[@codygruver8067]

I’m from Hartstown/Jamestown. I bought my 2020 CK4010HST from Lamb and Webster in Grove City

[@toml6135]

Thanks for the great video. I'm in the market for a new tractor and the CK3510SE HST is at the top of my list. You may have done this but you should run the engine and recheck the oil and hydraulic fluid after changing the filters as they will fill with oil and lower the fluid level a bit.

[@HometownAcres]

Yep I did this off camera and they did drop a bit so I topped them back off. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope you enjoy your new machine as much as I enjoy mine!

[@philipchabot6064]

Great job. at 50hrs you should change the axle fluid. it takes 80w/90 gear oil. utf is in it now.

[@tractorrookie]

Good job! I feel you. I’m new to the tractor business too and have a 3510 and did my own 50 hour service. We’ll get through it together. 😎😁

[@HometownAcres]

It was not hard at all. Just gotta do it is all

[@waynecombres8563]

Very good video

[@Brookside975]

great job! Only thing I would have added is putting down a sheet of plastic or cardboard to protect that nice barn floor. There has to be a neater way to fill the hydraulic fluid. :) Happy Thanksgiving! you have a very nice place.

[@HometownAcres]

Yeah I need a much better way to refill the hydraulic fluid. If you think of one please let me know haha

[@billnewman3628]

Nice video. Little advice look under tractor for all your censors and if they are really exposed look for a way to put a shield or guard over them. You get into brush or moving branches they will pull them off and shut your tractor down. Happened to me.

[@HometownAcres]

That doesn’t sound fun. I will definitely do that. Thanks for the Tip!

[@DubberGuy12]

Thank you for making the video

[@HometownAcres]

No problem. Thanks for watching

[@jasoncline4383]

Hello there. Just stumbled on to this video. Don't know why it hasn't come across previously being I've been looking at Kioti's. Anyway got to say I'm excited or got excited when I seen you mention Armstrong Truck and Tractor. That is where I have went to look at the Kioti brand. Main contact has been with Brian but talked with Shawn on the phone and in person at great lengths. Very down to earth, knowledgeable and helpful. Make ya feel like you've been friends for years. Anyway, can I assume you are from the Meadville area? (Judging from your shirt). I'm just south of Indiana PA. Btw, you just got a new subscriber so keep those videos coming. Gonna go get caught up now with you're other videos.

[@HometownAcres]

Hey thanks a lot buddy. Yeah they are great to deal with. Sean can sometimes be a little difficult to get ahold of because he’s so busy but that’s a good thing. Means they’ll be in business for many years to come to service the tractor. Yes I am in Meadville. Thanks for watching!

[@bearbag]

Write your hobbs hours on all your filters with a Sharpie in case you lose your records. Great job!

[@HometownAcres]

That’s a good idea. I need to do that since the next change isn’t for another 400 hours

[@henrybusjahn8714]

i have a 25 hp kioti it needs service thanks for your video i built own place am carpenter did garage to 30x40 apprciate your vidieos

[@waynetaylor420]

Where I come from the only tractors around are green or red. Not so familiar with kioti tractors. I looked into getting a mahindra 2 years ago but I was not impressed. That little tractor you have looks like a good one. Cool video, thumbs up

[@HometownAcres]

My neighbor is a John Deere guy and I see the way he’s been looking at my tractor haha. It really is a great tractor. I am very happy with the purchase

[@CopperCettle]

did you check the front axel oil? thanks

[@teamstucker624]

Great video 👍 Farm and Home or Rural King sells 2 gallon hydraulic fluid jugs if it's Kioti compatible they are very handy for filling up the hydraulic fluid small and compact. I'm at 49 hours man I'm way behind LOL.

[@HometownAcres]

Yep we went to Family Farm and Home. When I bought the log splitter there they told me I could take as many pallets as I wanted to stack wood on. So I’ve done all my business there since then. I’ve probably gotten 40 pallets from there haha. 1 small gesture on their part got my business for the rest of my life

[@nwindlt]

What do you torque your loader to frame bolts too?

[@BenjiKoshy]

Doesn't it void the warranty if you service it yourself? The Kioti warranty from their website specifies that, but I would like to get some clarity. My dealer in Marion, TX wants $700 for the 50 hr service. They offered me a couple of free hats when I purchased the ck2610H tractor bundle, nothing else

[@JABECO2016]

Great video , very easy to watch . Why you choose t4 over t6?

[@EarlybirdFarmSC]

I am saving this for reference when I do my 50 hr service on my ck3510SE. Question: do you know how to get the radiator screen out? Seems like it would just slide out but it looks like you have to take some stuff off to get to it.

[@HometownAcres]

I’d have to go back out and look but I think it does just slide out

[@EarlybirdFarmSC]

Hometown Acres That’s the way other brands work but can’t figure out how this one does. I’ll check the owner’s manual just thought you might would know. Thanks my friend. Have a good one.

[@garymeyer3294]

There are two wing nuts at the top of each screen (there are two screens split vertically. one nut for each screen). Then slide them out to the right and lift up. Pay attention to which goes where as they are handed (one right and one left). No need to remove anything to get them out.

[@EarlybirdFarmSC]

@@garymeyer3294 Thabks for that information!

[@larrylapanowski6707]

What are the part numbers of the filters? I cannot find them anywhere in the owners manual.

Hey thanks a lot, I’ll check your channel out

[@TravdanVA]

Fantastic video! Stumbled upon it while doing my research on the Kioti brand. I am in Western PA myself and actually spoke with Sean late last night about the 35 horse unit. I tried Bobcat of Erie first and was disappointed to learn they were going to stop carrying the Kioti brand. Any regrets buying this unit over a New Holland or Kubota? I am less than 30 days away from pulling the trigger. Just want to make sure I'm making the right choice. I plan on keeping it for my lifetime. Any thoughts?

[@HometownAcres]

I do not have any regrets. I love my CK3510. If I were you I would definitely get a quick hitch for the back of the tractor if you plan on using any implements back there. It will save you a ton of time. Honestly the Kioti has the best in class loader lift capacity and I use every bit of it for moving firewood logs around. If I had gotten a kubota or new holland I would have been screwed trying to move big logs on more than one occasion. We post a lot of videos with the Kioti, check out some other ones to see what all we’ve used it for. Next time you talk to Sean, let him know you saw the 50 hour service video they sponsored. I’m sure he would like to hear that! Let me know what you end up getting

[@HometownAcres]

Also I forgot to mention the money you’ll save buying a Kioti. In my research I found they they were on average 15-20% cheaper in price compared to Kubota. I don’t know about you but I’m a value shopper. Here’s the link to the video right after we bought it kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYDGomOAmtuLl6s

[@TravdanVA]

@@HometownAcres thank you so much! I subscribed to your channel. I checked out a few other videos and like the content. I will definitely mention the video to Sean. I am supposed to have a formal quote from him today. I started off with 60 inch tiller, 9 inch post hole digger, and pallet forks. Curious if you have any experience with the backhoe? That could be the next thing I get for it. Also, any idea what insurance on the Kioti costs? Ballpark? Not sure where you are in Western PA but I am in Tionesta. Maybe we can connect one day? I also left the city to move here about 3 years ago. I'm a transplant from Virginia Beach. I bought an old farm and farmhouse. Couldn't be any happier! Thanks again....

[@HometownAcres]

Travis Daniels Travis Daniels the pallet forks are a must. I use mine almost more than the bucket. I’m in Meadville PA. My Buddy has a hunting camp up in Warren PA we drive through Tionesta to get there every year. So I don’t have any experience with the back hoe. I would have loved to have gotten one but it wasn’t in the budget. Sean invited us down for their open house March 27th and 28th. I’m gonna try to make it down there for that. I have called them numerous times with questions about offroad vs highway diesel, engine coolant, the 50 hour service. I always get somebody to answer my calls and usually end up shooting the shit about tractors for a half hour or so. I really like having Armstrong truck and tractor as my dealer

[@TravdanVA]

@@HometownAcres Good to know that your experience with them has been positive. I'm looking forward to developing a relationship with them as well. Maybe I'll see you at the open house! Best of luck to you on the farm and thank you for the insight!

[@iitru45]

Alright, I got to ask..... I just picked up a ck4010se hst from my local dealer and it is very stiff to select L M H when im stopped. I called my dealer and they said all HST are stiff like that and I need to give the forward/reverse pedal a little bump while pushing it into the range i would like. Is yours the same way? Sounds kinda fishy to me. Only experience I have with hst is on my fatherinlaws 3 series deere. And it slide into range buttery smooth.

[@HometownAcres]

Yes mine is the same way. It is a mechanical gear so if it doesn’t want to switch gears you have to roll forward or backward an inch or 2 and try again. Engaging the 4 wheel drive is the same way

[@CJ2APEEP]

AJ, my NX4510 is the same way. It annoys me but is fairly consistent and doesn’t seem to be getting any worse (more frequent). I spoke to my dealer about it and they said it is normal. It’s only really annoying because of the time waste - when I bump the throttle and then have to wait so as to not grind the gears. But I suppose the HST saves more time than that going back/forth between fwd/rev... 🤷‍♂️

[@iitru45]

@@CJ2APEEP its kinda a pain in the butt. Oh well. Seems to not be as bad now that I have a fee hours in the seat, or im just getting used to it. Wish they would just machine the gears will a little more shoulder so it would engage a little easier. I guess if thats the biggest issue I have im doing alright! 👍

[@teamstucker624]

Hello I have a question about the Kioti CK3510 what did you pay for the tractor and loader with 3rd function?? I have a quote on a CK3510 I would like to see if it's a good deal. Thanks

[@HometownAcres]

I don’t remember exactly how much just the tractor loader and 3rd function are but my whole package that included: tractor, 4wd, hst transmission, loader, 3rd function hydraulics, rear tires loaded, floor mat, 72” box blade, 60” rotary cutter, and 2,000 lbs pallet forks was a cash price of $22,500 or 24,500 with 0% financing for 60 months
