Read articles →A first-time tractor owner sharing roughly 50-hour impressions of his Kioti CS2520 in real yard use. He covers loader lift capacity, why he chose a box blade over a backhoe (including the $7,500, $8,000 cost reason), the absence of a rear hydraulic remote and what that costs him daily, four-wheel-drive digging quirks, and three-point hitch learning curve. Best for prospective CS2520 buyers weighing attachments and real-world tradeoffs.
An owner-operator sharing candid first-hand impressions from his own property, with no apparent dealership or brand affiliation evident in the transcript.
After accounting for the bucket weight, the owner can lift a little over 800 pounds without any trouble, which handles most dirt and gravel work.
Backhoe attachments run around 7,500 to 8,000 dollars, more than any other implement, so he used an existing trencher and added a box blade instead.
No, it does not come with one, though it is orderable and can be installed later for running hydraulic implements like a hydraulic top link.
Pushing the bucket hard into a bank can cause all four wheels to dig in if they do not grip, digging a hole with the back wheel.
