Kubota vs Kioti Hydraulic System-Definitely different.

Doing a bit of real world operation between the two tractors doing some loader work.Nothing technical or fancy,just real world comparison and my personal preference.

Good video to help you sell the kubota and keep the kioti. I have nothing but respect for kubota and was seriously going to buy a used/new one but couldn't pull the trigger on one for over a year (was at the dealer more than once). Discovered kioti and bought a kioti ck2620 in a week cuz i knew the kubota numbers inside and out. No regrets.

Hey Mike love your vids. I looked at a ck3510se last year and saw exactly what your pointing out here. Brought my new ck3520se home today. Night and day difference on splitting the functions in my opinion. They must have figured something out. Was a Kubota owner but once it was time to upgrade I could not spend more for less with them. They’ve gotten a little too proud of their product these days. -Taylor

Nice video Mike. There are lots of potential tractor buyers out there that don't know that there might be a difference like this between tractors. I hope lots of people get to see your video before they make a decision.

I want a cab, but don’t know if I can part with the l2501. Damn good work horse tractor. Positive my kids will inherit it in good working order if I hang on to her, but the tym and kioti cabs look nice for about what she’s worth…

[keithscriven]

Seems like on the kubota you raise it and then dump so not really 2 functions at the same time

[Tiger-fvnl]

To anybody who is saying the kioti are significantly less than the Kubota you are wrong. I got multiple prices on both cab models kioti CK 2620 and the Kubota LX 2620. The Kubota actually came out cheaper at $28, 500 and the kioti was $29, 600 therefore the Kubota was actually cheaper. I have the paperwork right here to prove it.

I’ve got a CK40 and I can literally use my finger tips to use the front loader. Might just be that particular tractor. Also I’ve spent a bit of time with the loader and haven’t even noticed not having dual functions. I really want to upgrade the size of my tractor and am considering a Kubota MX series but the Kioti DK series beats the MX in loader capacity and 3 point capacity and only weighs about 400lbs less. All being about 10k cheaper..Kubota are great tractor but the price has kept me away..

Hello there my name is Arthur hemstreet and I was wondering how much you were selling the Kubota and were are you located at

[scottdupuis]

just wait . by july all that snow will be gone

[frankchapa]

Kioti is a better machine!! Kubota, Deere, Mahendra ect all over rated!!

[levimc]

I wouldn't buy either tractor i farm for a living the newest tractor i got is a 2003 belarus the new tractors dont hold up and the old ones got no deff or computer every body i know says the old ones are best just my opinion

[MrCPPG]

I have driven Kubota, and as you say the dual movement is smooth, which for your case is fine. However, for equivalent models Kioti can lift large logs whereas Kubota fails. I just want to lift a log off the ground and transport it, not do the swan ballet with it. I'd probably go with a blower for snow anyhow.

For the nearly $10k I saved on my Kioti CK2620 cab vs a comparable Kubota LX series or Deere 3 series I can live with the slower hydraulics. I’ve owned a Kubota, Deere, and now Kioti and I like them all but when it comes to lift capacity the Kioti puts the other two comparable sized tractors to shame. For a homeowner who owns a few acres or a small homestead a Kioti is a great tractor based on cost but if I were in a professional business where my butt was in the cab most of the day then I could make a case for the extra cost of the Kubota. Just my thoughts on this.

[davehudson]

I believe you should be running about 2200 RPM on the new Kioti’s
Work out a wee bit, and you will find that sweet spot where you can curl and dump real quick. One thing I like about the coyote, you can certainly lift a little bit more more weight than you can with the Kubota.

[OriginalAARon]

Kubota also costs more so it makes sense as typically you get what you pay for. Personally I have a CK 2620 and I love it no complaints. It has done everything I’ve asked of it and then some

I've owned two Kioti tractor so far, a subcompact CS series and currently a DK 5320se cab. When I upgraded I looked hard at a Kubota and did lots of test driving different brands. Kubota tractors DO have smoother hydraulics overall. I operate a construction grade wheel loader at my everyday job and the hydraulics on it are better than Kubota's as well. So there are always better options out there. However, in order to get the same lift capacity in a Kubota that I get with my Kioti, I needed to go all the way up to an MX series tractor. That thing is WAY too big for what I do. The DK series hydraulics is better than my CS series tractor was though as far as smoothness and ability to do two functions at the same time. I do agree with you though, Kubota's hydraulics are better than ANY of the other tractor brands I tested and I tested them all. Great video you put out showing this obvious difference in performance.

[FightingFishTv]

Great video. Seems that machines days are numbered on your property. Any major work lined up for the summer/spring? We just moved down to Port Stanley from Angus, ON. Hoping to get some work down this way.

[kjy]

Good thing it's an opinion video. Anyone who knows anything knows you don't know how to operate nor how to adjust the settings on the Kioti. You probably don't know because Kubota doesn't have hydraulic adjustments...

[alanskinner]

Back in the old days there was a valve below the seat on tractors that would adjust the flow rate to the front hydrlics. the HST tractors are a bad design to begin with. they do not build backhoes as HST for a reason.

[kevinpulliam]

I think this is the case with many brands in some ways to a degree more or less two functions at once is robbing from the other . I find it to be so on my 753 skidsteer
