How to install 3rd function Kioti CK (PART 2)

[@HisWayHomestead]

wow... can't believe those electrical connectors were backwards... great job on the install!!!

[@jonlrichard]

I am sure you can flip the coils around 180 degrees.

[@Atlantismonkey40]

I don’t have a tractor, found this very interesting. The longest I’ve seen you go without the keystone girl. Haha. I can only imagine the Korean made comments. It’s all good. Very well explained.

[@doughavenga316]

That was excellent, That video was outstanding. It saved me a pile of time, I work at a Kioti dealership and nothing beats that video, Thanks very much,

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks, I appreciate that. The instructions are awful on that kit. Glad it saved you some time. Im working with my local Kioti dealer on a couple of ideas I have for the CK series. I have a good video going up next week installing a touchscreen and rear camera. Thanks for watching!

[@raymondroberts1905]

This series is a godsend. Used it instead of the instructions from kioti (garbage). Thanks for this.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

No problem! Im glad it helped you. And yes, working through those awful instructions was an challenge. Thanks for the comment!

[@johnlee2519]

WoW! You did a great job on this video. The workarounds that you came up with in the absence of clear instructions were outstanding. I know I will reference back to this video when I add my 3rd Function. You definitely made it easier for the rest of us. Thank You.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thank you. I really appreciate that. Hopefully it helps some people out with the install. Thanks for watching

[@wabash5123]

From one Hoosier to another, thanks for the install video. I plan on adding the 3rd function to my 3510 in the spring, and I'm positive I'll reference this video when I do the install.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks for watching. hopefully it helps you out and saves you some time. feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I'm not an expert, but ill do my best to help out.

[@MotoCheez]

Nice job! I will be attacking this job soon.

[@willhutchinson3242]

Just finished the install on my 2021 CK3510 SE. I pretty much did the install from memory after watching your videos more than once (the factory instructions are very difficult to follow). It all went very smoothly with some minor changes being that I don’t have the cab model. Can’t wait to buy a grapple attachment and try it out! Thanks for making the videos, I’ll be watching more changes and additions to your tractor.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

nice! ya the instructions are horrible. I still have to get something myself

[@goeachitt]

Thanks for these couple videos on installing the 3rd function valve. I'm still on the fence with dropping that coin for the valve or having some hoses made up to run off the rear remote. You've taken the guess work out of bad instructions with your video, that's a huge advantage to anyone who wants to save on dealer install costs. I won't have the push button luxury if I use hoses alone but I'm only looking at routing lines. Hoses and couplers also considerably less, cost.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

thank you, ya sounds like the video has helped a handful of people through the install. Guess it depends on what kind of attachment your wanting to use where the rear control isn't a big deal. Something like a grapple, would be nice to have the buttons on the loader stick. Let me know how it goes. Thanks for watching.

[@osilekpl79]

I just ordered my ck2610 got great deal on it since it was last one. Im in same boat may just run long hoses to save money but once bonus hits the bank i bet i be getting one 😂. Was wondering do they sell turbo kit for them to make it 45hp?

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Not that i know of. I do k ow that the 2610 is a 35 hp motor. Same as the 3510 just detuned for emissions. Ive heard of people tuning them to the 35 hp

[@osilekpl79]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC oh yes i know about fuel pump adjustment. Reason I asked cause I seen videos on kubota ls2501 turbo kit made by S2T Performance. That is 1.6 motor as well. Gotta do some digging around.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

No problem! I hope it helps you out and saves you some time on the install.

[@chuckyzf]

GREAT JOB ON THE INSTALL. WELCOME TO POOR INSTRUCTIONS! KEYSTONE SHOULD SPONSOR YOU!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thank you. Ya they were pretty bad. I need to write ole Keystone a letter or something. Theyre getting an a lot of free advertising out of me. Thanks for comment!

[@jeffrme]

Great video, but FYI you should never use tape on hydraulic fittings!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks. Someone else mentioned that too. The instructions were so bad. just felt like something needed to be on the threads to seal them.

[@mixedbeans]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC That is interesting. Just installed a Kioti kit on DK6010 and I have leaks which made me wonder if I missed something like adding tape or sealant.

[@appstate1996]

Man, how frustrating it is when the instructions suck. I really commend you on figuring it all out. I don't think I could have. I'm watching because I recently bought a Kioti tractor (used) with the 3rd function kit already installed. I just bought a new grapple and hooked it up but when I press the 3rd function button, nothing happens. I'm going to have to troubleshoot and wanted to see what parts were involved, what they look like, and where everything was located. Your video will help get me started.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Glad it helped you out. Did you give it a minute for the new grapple to fill with hydraulic fluid? Or is the hydraulic level low? Other than that i would open the access cover on the solenoid to see if they are clicking when you hit the button. Not that you need help troubleshooting. Let me know what you end up finding wrong. Thanks for the comment!

[@appstate1996]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC Thank you for the reply. I don't know much but I did some troubleshooting. I get power to the valve but no power to the 3rd function switch. I started the tractor and press the right end of the valve with needle nose pliers and the grapple opens. I do the same to the left side and it closes. That leads me to believe that the valve and couplers are working properly. I'm almost convinced the problem is the control module. That is the plastic piece where the wires enter from the battery and leave to the switch. It is a WR Long product and they don't sell to the public. I'll have to try to find a dealer to order the Valve Control Module (Part #: ValCMww). I wouldn't have gotten this far without people like you. Thanks again!

[@newhampshire-bob1604]

Great videos on the installation! One thing, I have heard you should not use teflon tape on hydraulic fittings as you run the risk of contaminating your hydraulic system. Great job on figuring out the install!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Good to know. Im sure they require some kind of sealant, but they dont specify in the directions. Thanks

[@mrmichaeltscott]

Well, we really appreciate the video. I'll get this someday.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

thanks for watching! its definitely a nice option to have on the tractor

[@petrnikityuk9701]

Thank you so much 👍

[@BossSwanger]

Good video! Hopefully I will be doing the same here soon

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

if you have any questions feel free to contact me. thanks for watching

[@BossSwanger]

Thanks bud, dealer ended up installing mine :( lol Question when you dump your bucket does the leader stick hit the fender? Mine does

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

@@BossSwanger I just checked. It just misses when I only dump the bucket. If I dump the bucket and press forward to lower loader arms, then it hits. I never noticed that before. I've heard of issues with the backhoe controls hitting the out rigger lever too. You wonder how things like this don't get caught before they go to production.

[@BossSwanger]

Something I noticed with mine. I have the CK4010se with a cab. Came with a KL4030C loader in Texas

[@jackbraine2276]

Did I miss where the fuse holder is installed? And what amp fuse shuld you use? My dealer placed my grapple fuse on top of my battery where moisture can get to it and the fuse holder is not water proof. This has caused me problems. Are you connected to the fuse box????...By the way, you do great videos!!!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks Jack. I always look forward to you comments. There is no fuse in that 3rd function kit. The wiring harness they provide just plugs into the existing 12v accessory jack on the operators station. its only the (2) solenoids in that circuit. Which should only be used one at a time. The existing accessory circuit is already fused in factory wiring. Hopefully that answers your question. Not sure why they came off the battery. I actually had a Kioti tech use my video as a reference. Kinda scary

[@darrellmoore2879]

I have a CK4020 SE open cab model and the dealer had already installed the 3rd function on it. It is powered off the Hotwire on the starter. Worked fine until one of the buttons was stuck and killed my battery.

[@stevemario98]

great video thanks

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Glad you enjoyed it. thanks for watching

[@Curtis1824]

What was your total time for install? I'm close to getting the 3rd function for my DK.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I think it was about 4-5 hours. A lot of that was deciphering the instructions.

[@elhappyhuero]

Liked and subcribed good video thank you. I hope it will be similar for my RX6620 cab power shuttle.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I appreciate it. Good luck with the install

[@ryanpereira8133]

Does the hydraulic system need to be bleeded for air in the lines after the install?

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I dont think its necessary. Most hydraulics will work out the air pretty quick. Im not an expert with hydraulics so better do some more research if your concerned.

[@thermitegrenade]

Even if it's from Korea for that much money you still think they would get it right SMDH.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Ha i agree.

[@Aaliyahpankratz14]

By chance do you know if there’s 2 different kits ? You have the 4030 loader , I have a 4030c model loader

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Im not sure on that one. I would imagine they are the same as long as its a CK. Everything just attaches to the loader. I guess theres a chance the loader brackets could be different.

[@Aaliyahpankratz14]

Interesting. I know the c stands for being made In Canada instead of Texas. You know the bracket that you add on to the side for the additional 2 hydraulic lines ? That bracket on mine does not line up correctly. Probably got sent the wrong bracket or Canada vs Texas specs must be slightly different.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

@@Aaliyahpankratz14 huh. I wasnt aware of that with the c and t.

[@alangrant1984]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC Also, the last bracket that you install with three bolts and the original three hole plate that you take off and don't use again is completely different on the "C" model. There is no bracket like that and for some reason I can't find one KIOTI dealer that knows about a different kit. Very frustrating!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

@@alangrant1984 do you need a custom plate made?

[@aDrunkSailor82]

Factory instructions did suck pretty bad. This video helped. BUT, if you're going to speed the video up, you should spend a few seconds after assembling each piece so we can actually see what it looks like. I couldn't pause quick enough on multiple points. If you just let the video run long, your viewers can speed up what they want.

[@SlappinCpt69]

Much appreciated man.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Hope it helped.
