If it is that sketchy and you are already missing ballast in 1 tire. I would suggest you put your Rops all the way up and put your seatbelt on. Death or being crippled can come in an instant. Just sayin. Be safe.
Was it in low range when you were trying to pull the log uphill? Seems like it was moving way too fast for low range. My Kubota BX pulls a LOT more in low range. Those wheel spacers are nice! Really helps the stance of your tractor!
Yeah it was in low. The Kioti is the heaviest tractor in this frame size. Great for loader work but it is harder to get it moving. 2,308lb tractor, 605lb loader, 30lb tooth bar, 342lbs of rim guard tire ballast (when both rears are full), and a 175lb scrape blade comes in at 3,460lbs or so. I chose the Kioti since it was the heaviest compact and had by far the largest hydraulic pump at 11.3 GPM. If it had a 3 speed trans like the CK2610 it would be a beast. High gear is about useless unless it's on flat ground. Hopefully when I tune the engine back to 35hp it will solve that problem.
Yeah at 1,500rpms and no auto throttle it's a little weak. I have the auto throttle engaged in the vid, anytime I give it gas it revs up past 1,500rpms.
I have a CX. Loader is surprisingly strong. I hope the chainsaw police let you live to make another video lol.
Yeah I figured i'm going to get scolded on how to use a saw lol That and how I'm going to perish not using the roll bar.

Please make a video when you tune the engine. Thanks for the videos!
I see you said idle was at 1500, you should run around 2000 its easier on the pumps. Fyi, i got one too.👍
