Kioti CS20 Series Walkaround

[@slip0n0fall]

Great overview - been very happy with my CS2220 TLB

[@594bolt]

Kioti needs to put adjustable armrests on all their tractors. You'll appreciate them when you run loader all day.

Dont forget the backhoe stabilizer pads changed

Hello Mr Nate: can you tell me what the difference is between the CS2510 and 2520 is? I've looked and looked on Kioti's website, and searched online, to no avail. I can see on the spec sheet that the 20 series is slightly heavier, and has slightly more hydraulic pump velocity. But what makes it heavier? And what other differences are there between the CS2510 and CS2520? Thank you!

[@kentonequipment4687]

Hello! The answer is going to depend on what year CS10 series you look at. Before the CS20 came out, the CS10 was a vastly downgraded machine. It had a pin on loader bucket with a 700lb lift capacity, the hood and footing area were plastic, and it had a Shibuara engine (which isn't a bad thing but isn't made by Kioti, where I usually preach that a company who makes their own equipment is a better option). The CS10 was updated when the CS20 was released, so now it has the same Kioti engine, the loader has the same higher 1,064lb lift capacity (but is still mounted loader-side instead of tractor-side in the fender, and a few other things. Think of it as a more stripped down and lesser featured version of the same thing. If you're looking for the most budget friendly option you can't go wrong!

Thank you very much for your reply! I was still wondering, though, where the approximately 50 lb difference in weight comes in. I had read a blurb on one forum that indicated that they had made the frame heavier. Do you know if this is true?

Question, on the 3-point raise and lower, is it just up and down or can you select a height like on larger tractors?

[@ndrs4u7]

The 3 point hitch can stop at any position you need. The lever doesn't have a numeric indicator like the larger models but if I want to hold an implement 6 inches off the ground I can. I hope that answers your question!

[@johndeere2038r]

The lever is up-netrual-down positions , that being said you can raise it or lower it to where you want it and release the handle back to the middle and it will stop wherever it is, if I'm correct the John Deere 1025r 1 series is the only subcompact tractor 1 series that has the same set up as the larger tractors like your thinking . Hope this helped you out as I grew up running larger tractors and wanted that same set up for my subcompact 1 series .

Need one with mid mount mower and front end loader. I just sold my JD 3032e due to not having a mid mount mower setup

[@kentonequipment4687]

We've got 'em!

[@jacekmadej34]

Is the backhoe attachment an expensive upgrade? Like how much would a CS with it cost?

[@kentonequipment4687]

The backhoe is a $6K-7K option. It's pretty pricey. You can get a tractor/loader/backhoe/mower for $25k-27K depending on financing/cash or specific model.

[@jimjennings1970]

Hmm I can't seem to find them

[@kentonequipment4687]

You're looking for them on dealer lots? They should be plentiful. We have about 20 in stock!

[@carlosfinch8225]

$ ?

[@tfrantastic]

Yikes. You are telling me that you assemble them and then send them off so quickly that you can’t make a video….that means that they are being sent off with 0hrs? Come on really? That is not good.

[@kentonequipment4687]

They come from the factory with about .5hrs. We put about .5hrs on them or more in the PDI process. I also spend a lot of my time doing my job selling them, so don't have a lot of time to do videos right now. It's a very busy season for us! I'm not sure if you're insinuating we don't effectively PDI these units, but no worries, we do!

Category one three point, not category one pto. Come on.
