Along the way he vents about recurring loose loader and backhoe bolts and shares permit/electrician cost details ($1,100 and $2,800). Best for owners troubleshooting CK2610 backhoe reliability issues, not shoppers wanting a walkaround.
Posted by the Aspie's garage worthshop channel, an owner documenting hands-on frustrations and repairs with his own tractor rather than a dealer or reviewer.
The owner found every bolt missing from the backhoe mount except one after only about three hours of use, which he called excessive and frustrating.
No, he told the dealer he had only put three hours on the backhoe and all the bolts rattled out, so they gave him six new bolts for free.
For his county, the rule allowed going out 150 feet from the green box with the trench dug two feet deep.
A mechanic said the dealer basically let the tractor through without setting it up, never tightening bolts or checking hydraulic lines before sale.
