Product: DK40SE/DK40SE HST
My first KIOTI was a CK30HST. I put over 300 hrs on it over a couple of years. It was a great tractor, but I found myself needing a bigger FEL bucket & lifting capacity. I traded it in for the DK40SE HST & have over 100 hrs on it so far. I am extremely impressed with this tractor & am constantly amazed at what it can do. It is an absolute beast when it comes to grubbing, pulling and lifting. The HST on both these tractors work flawlessly making any job a pleasure. I would never go back to a gear or shuttle tractor after owning my HSTs. The operator deck is well laid out and gives me a lot of room (64″). My neighbors all own other “colored” tractors. After watching me work or borrowing my DK40, these are the comments I have heard: “I didn’t think that tractor could pull that truck out of that ravine…sideways!” That thing has more lifting power than mine & mine is 10 horses bigger.” Your HST sure makes loading easier and safer because it’s so smooth.” Quality at a price most can afford….thank you KIOTI!
