Read articles →This is an owner's early-impressions review (about eight hours in) rather than a dealer walkaround, covering a CK2610 upgraded to the KB2475 loader for extra lift capacity, with real detail on backhoe attach/detach technique, bucket geometry quirks, hydrostatic reverse-speed limits, and a minor coolant/freeze-plug issue under warranty. Useful for buyers weighing loader options and wanting candid, specific gripes alongside overall satisfaction.
Posted by the DieselFuelOnly channel, apparently an individual owner sharing hands-on impressions of his own newly purchased tractor.
It normally comes with the CK2610 loader rated about 1,300 pounds lift, but the owner upgraded to the KB2475 loader for about 1,800 pounds lift capacity, costing an extra $200.
Back up with the frame angled down so the subframe clears the rear bracket, then line up two pins and the subframe brackets. The owner does it in about 5 to 10 minutes.
No. Full speed is available in forward but not in reverse, so the owner sometimes shifts to high range when backing up to match forward speed.
Yes, the bucket has a bevel that causes the cutting edge to lift off the ground in float position, especially since loader arm weight pushes the cylinders back.
