Kioti Tractor Review- DK5310SE HST

Check out my review of the best tractor I've ever owned. Kioti has been making waves in the industry recently, and I've been a fan of theirs since I bought this tractor from @STECEquip in November, 2022.
Also, let me know if you've got any good name ideas for this orange machine!

I’m really interested in this tractor. Looking forward to your videos.

[@LandFather]

Thank you! I’ve loved it. Almost 200 hours so far and the only thing that’s broken has been due to operator error.

[@codyjlee]

Just found your channel, looks like you're relatively close to me, good to meet you! Thanks for the walk through on the tractor, I still don't know which way I want to go, but Kioti is looking very tempting...

[@LandFather]

Thanks for stopping by. I’m out towards the Pendleton area, where are you at? I’ve really loved this tractor, it’s a nice piece of equipment and really hard to beat for the price

[@codyjlee]

@@LandFather just over the NC line in the Shelby NC area!

I have a Titan Implements (now Iron Craft) clamshell grapple and the pins they used are greased bolts with nuts These work just great, never had them come loose in over 200 hours. They sometimes can get squeaky, but just need a finger tip worth of grease and good to go.

[@LandFather]

My Chinese mini ex has pins which are bolts and they work good. I may have to modify this grapple if they keep falling out. Thanks for watching!

Great video. Very nice machine! Great job adding all of the small details.

[@LandFather]

Thank you!

I moved to the mountains of upstate NY from near you. Went shopping Friday and while running the numbers on a XK3510, CK3520 and a Boomer 41 I asked how far off we were from a new machine. They had one DK5310 left on the lot with one hour on it. The higher HP and having over 7 acres qualified my for an Agricultural tax waiver as a "part-time farm" and the new machine had 0% interest vice 7.9% on a used. Lower payment for an additional year brings the DK5310 home!! Added the 3rd function and pallet forks. The wife and I are excitedly awaiting delivery. Lot's to do on 40 hilly acres. Thanks for the review!

[@LandFather]

I’m really pumped for you. After pallet forks I’d get a grapple (you will love it) But I love pretty much everything about my DK. Excited for you to welcome it home soon, and thanks for watching!

[@possum104]

@@LandFather Thanks, it's going to be a long week waiting for them to deliver. Grapple is high on my list of implements to add. Safe tractoring buddy!

[@LandFather]

@@possum104 you too. I sure have loved mine. Got almost 180 hours on it and ticking away like a Swiss watch

[@LandFather]

Let me know if you have a question about the machine I can help answer!

[@marvinbrickhouse9122]

I got a 2021 dk 4710 same tractor with hp not turned up as high as yours, Mine has 200 hrs no issues I really like it. i have a six ft tiller six ft bush hog ,forks and a seven ft box blade. I grew up on a farm so I have a lot of seat time. Grew up on 25 to 140+ hp machines mostly Allis Chalmers and International Harvester with a few John Deer tractors this DK 4710 is just below a utility tractor not really built for large acreage row cropping but this hydro is the best all around shop livestock yard loader machine we’ve ever had. I got the hydraulic third link but not the loader third function third function it is on my wish list. Dk series I highly recommend it. Enjoyed the review and agree it’s a very nice machine. I named mine Wiley Kioti 😊

[@LandFather]

Thanks for watching Marvin! Glad you enjoyed it. I’m really impressed with the Kioti DKs and I’m glad I picked this one. I love the hydrostatic transmission. Makes loader work so much smoother and more convenient. They’re really great machines and I’m glad you’re enjoying yours as much as I am mine. I still gotta work on the name but Wiley Kioti is a great tractor name. Thanks again!

[@thelogfather5002]

I’d be extremely happy with that tractor. I’d like to have a cab, and be able to lift a ton… your machine will lift roughly twice what my JD2025r will lift.

[@LandFather]

Cabs are nice, I didn’t feel like I wanted to pay for a cab but sometimes in the summer I really wish I had one. The lift capacity is honestly really impressive. 2025R is a great machine, but would probably still feel undersized for my uses. Thanks for watching!

[@stephenmcatee2104]

I have a pats quick hitch and it is great if you have older implements a standard QH is a pain ,

[@LandFather]

I'm not familiar with a pats quick hitch how are they different, I do have some older implements, not sure how many are really quick hitch compatible for me, I need to measure before I pull the trigger on one

[@projectswithjw]

Good video! I'd like my next machine to be a Kioti or TYM. JDQA is absolute garbage. You're right though, better than nothing. 👍

[@LandFather]

I don’t have any experience with TYM but I know a lot of people like that brand. Go get on a Kioti soon. I think you’ll be really impressed

[@seth49]

What is the height of the DK5310 with the rops folded down? I am looking at upgrading from a CK2610 mainly for the PTO hp and the final decision is will it fit in the garage.

[@LandFather]

I will measure it tomorrow when I’m out in my shop and let you know

[@LandFather]

It would be a huge upgrade from your CK2610. I think if it fits you’d love the upgrade. I have thoroughly enjoyed this tractor and look forward to using it for many years to come

[@seth49]

That is the plan, this will be the last tractor I buy for a long time. The CK has been amazing for 25hp, but I keep bumping up against the limits of the tractor. I appreciate you. @@LandFather

[@orbanator7577]

Dealer got back to me, 77". Btw, I drove in to my house with the rops when I first got it. Also backed in to house with box blade. These tractors have a ton of power. Now im extra careful.

[@LandFather]

I just was fixing to respond. It’s a scootch over 77” inches for me but hopefully that gives you enough clearance. Thankfully I’ve only had the one strike with my house and it wasn’t too bad. Made me extra careful going forward
