Spotted three trucks with three brand new Kioti's on each heading East on the Princes Hwy this morning.
Wonder if one has your name on it, I was too far away to see the HP.

Oh that's exciting however the dealers tells me they arrive in crates and have to be assembled....that’s another $1000 thank you!!

Going in Monday to see where we are at.

Getting really keen to do some slashing with fires in the area!

My new tractor is going to be in Bairnsdale later this week and I should have it next week...Woohoo!

A week, a whole week, seven days, will you last

Sheesh! I'm just about a nervous wreck as it is, but a week is doable...just!

I can almost taste it!

To keep myself sane (?) I've been out and bought a flash new grease gun and fuel canisters in anticipation, so at least it feels like I'm making progress.

At least my misery will soon be over...grin~

Nice warm sunny day, put on the Akubra and level some gravel in the driveway that was formerly a bog.
Kind of cute isn't it.

Good jigger mate! They do an amazing job for their size!

Sitting twiddling my thumbs~

Two little things I don't like, you can't get on the right side as the buckets control lever gets in the way, getting off the control levels on the left hang up on your pants or go up the leg of your shorts.
Easy to overcome this until you forget about it.

Lol I bought an old david brown 880 which had a loader it operated off the 3 point linkage lever and had gravity bucket tip pfft.
After fitting a cylinder to the bucket for power tip i fitted a control valve, yup no access to the tractor from the right, got used to that rather fast,
However never got used to the lever sticking in hmmm well, where the sun don't shine as you left the tractor

They do have nice soft plastic covers which makes it more comfortable
The worst thing is getting hung up on the way down so your feet barely touch the ground, great position for a face plant, fortunately we have horses so a nice fresh pile of horse S#!^ softens the impact.
The new model BX2380 has the control on the right mudguard, they have been around for over a year but not in australia.
Mine is the BX2370.
I still have a grey fergie which I am happy to see the back of, bigger, less grunt and prone to wheel standing which is not a pleasant experience.
Someone told me that you can't kill a grey fergie but it will happily kill you.
