Installing a hydraulic top link on the Kioti CK4010SE.

[@j.f.outdoors8460]

The Link for ordering this hydraulic top link from Spare Parts Holland, is in the video description.

At the 8:20 mark it is not unusual for the top link's ball to be too wide for a lot of tractor's side of the three point hookup. Grinding the sides of the ball is a typical fix. Also, you should be able to use the factory "hanger" for stowing your hydraulic top link. On my tractor I had to redo the "hook" end a little, by opening it up, but it worked just fine.

Thank you for the information. You provided details my Kioti dealer (parts department) could not provide. I'm a new subscriber.

Great vid. Very helpful. Thank you.

Recently finished putting ours on. Combined with the HF quick hitch and an aftermarket top hook it makes picking up implements a breeze. And it's the only sane way to use a box blade.

Really enjoyed the video. I have the exact same top link for my CK3510SE and love it. Really makes it nice when using box blade or land lever.

[@JustMakinDoFarms]

I need to get one, thanks for the video.

[@Kick1776]

Thank you for making this video!

[@j.f.outdoors8460]

You’re welcome. Hope it helped you out!

[@bowdoin5063]

I'm wondering if you think you should have got the next size up link

[@j.f.outdoors8460]

Sometimes bigger is better. 🙂 I think this one should be more than enough though, time will tell. It will lift/support more than I should need, and the measurements extended and contracted are about the same lengths as the stock manual one. We will see how it holds up and if I have any issues I will make sure to update the viewers. Thanks for watching I appreciate it!

[@lulop022882]

I got the next size up, think it was a 20” -30” or so through tractor supply and it’s too big. Will have to order this one..I have a Kioti 4010..

[@FURFEELINGS_3]

@@lulop022882 What did you end up going with a have the 4010 no quick attachment just the 5 ft Gannon box. I’m considering this one but I’m curious what should I get ?

[@FURFEELINGS_3]

I have the same exact tractor and a 5 ft Gannon but without the 3 point quick hitch . My question is how do you like it and do you get a little more tilt front and back from stock mechanical link to this one? Or is it exactly the same? I only ask because I only have the Gannon and I cut scrape and feather that’s all I use it for should I stick to this one or another option? Thank you!

[@Moselli56]

Great video! Can you use a hydraulic top link with a quick attach?

[@j.f.outdoors8460]

Yes you can. I actually attach the top link to my quick hitch in the video. The top link works great however I’m not a huge fan of my quick hitch.

[@Moselli56]

@@j.f.outdoors8460 I was told by my Kioti salesman that I should choose between quick link or hydraulic top link because using both could possibly have implement disconnect so I chose the top link. I take delivery of new ck2610 cab today at 2:00. I wanted the quick attach too because I also bought brush hog box scraper tiller and all are Kioti/woods brand. Thoughts??

[@j.f.outdoors8460]

@@Moselli56 congratulations on your new tractor. I love mine. I have problems hooking my box blade up with the quick hitch on and I have to get off the tractor to hook up the PTO on the finish mower etc. so I find myself not using the quick hitch. I think you made a good choice. I did get the telescopic side links and sway bars so that makes hooking up attachments easy anyway.

[@brianc7646]

Do you find the range of this size (18-26”) gives you enough range on your box blade? The OEM top link goes from 18-30”, so you’re losing 4” on the long end. Can you tilt back enough? I’m debating between the 18-26” or 21-32” versions available…

[@rowlandgray5029]

That's different than the one that Kioti or my dealer sold me.. They couldn't after 3 times to dealer stop it from leaking. well, I have worked with farm equipment most of my life and hydraulics. Engr with the Dept of Defense fielded trucks with cranes, Fighter A/C in Air Force so don't like leaks. I was not happy with it leaking and was told they have them all the time. I got mine back and was leaking so I fixed it myself. Been 2 years now no leaks. I told the owner of the dealer to just ask them to drop by and show them or fix it. No excuse. I kind of like how the hydraulic line attaches to the Cylinder

[@metalmilitiaak47]

What size too link is this

[@thewayseeker]

Good job my friend👍 where in pa are you located? I am from the NW by Ohio

[@j.f.outdoors8460]

I live in NW PA.

[@blipsmann1985]

Looks like the other end of top link should be attached to the tractor. It would put your hoses further away from tractor and eliminate any rubbing !!!!!

[@666bruv]

Yeah, not really an install, just a replacement
