I'd go for the STINGRAY over any UTV too, but if you can't afford that, I'd run with a CF Moto Z10. They aren't out yet, but for the price and what you will get, the Z10 will be worth waiting for. And the price for the base unit is only $19,999.99. That's amazing!!!

I didn't take any chances. I used what the manual calls for, which was oil for clutches.

I have been doing a little research on which engine oil is best for UTV engines. There seems to be some disagreement over using a good quality regular engine oil, and the necessity of using "M2" (or wet clutch suitable) oil. My understanding is the "wet clutch" suitable oil has less friction reduction properties (hence a more responsive clutch with less slippage). While less friction reduction properties would seem to be better for the wet clutch... it would not be best for the internal engine parts like camshaft bearings and other moving parts where friction is detrimental and would lead to premature failure. Some folks swear you need M2 oil, while others say they have been using regular motor oil for years and their clutch is just fine. Could they both be right ??? Any thoughts ?

I took the cover off and the linkage and everything looked fine. I then shifted it by putting plyers on the shifter shaft and did not get low or neutral. I concluded that the shifter and linkage was not the issue, but something internally.

With the shifter open it does not shift, it has to be something internally. I was just hoping someone has seen this before.

I'd have the dealer repair that machine while it is under warranty. Fuses don't just pop on a new vehicle. Fuses do not pop because linkage is not adjusted. You are experiencing an electrical problem and I can say with a high degree of certainty you will experience more blown Fuses in the very near future. The machine is protecting itself from the real problem by popping the fuse. The machine is also communicating there is an electrical issue to you Boss. Have it figured out before the warranty runs out or you may experience expensive troubleshooting diagnostics later.

Thanks,.. got it fixed, turns out there is a fuse interconnected with the brake safety interlock. It prevents the gearshift from being recognized. the linkage for the shifter was adjusted and that should solve all problems.. If any one has the same issue with a non start. it might be caused by the brake interlock system fuse. a 10 amp fuse popped. I had changed most of the fuses with the Start and Run functions. never thought there would be a connection to the brakes. weird Chinese Engineering I guess.

You also might consider talking to the selling dealer to push for a full replacement of your unit with a new one since it is an on going issue from new and the first dealer attempt to fix didn't fix it. If they resist, ask for the owner of the dealership and ask him/her how they are going to make you a happy customer. That might make your next dealer visit the last one for a while. Good luck on it.

Since my UTV is a slow moving property maintenance work horse and I'm constantly in and out of it, I just buckle the belt up behind me & tuck it in behind seat bottom. I wouldn't travel quickly or on any roads or on any "tippy" places without the belt on though, too much risk of getting tossed out and maybe crushed that way.

Harvey, Just curious, you mentioned the clutch parts separated. No way to rebuild it better?

You went further than I ever would have. On the rare occasion that I have a problem like you had I just drive a Phillips screwdriver through the filter and use that to spin it off.

I have not. I cleaned mine a few times then unplugged it last time it got sticky. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That is the Idle Air Control IAC. I haven’t found a replacement, but after similar problems with mine I simply unplugged it and all is good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I disagree, you don't get what you pay for.

There's a big reason they want them gone..And that warranty ain't worth the paper it's written on.

Sorry that is happening to you. Sounds like it may be your player?

Ok. So one thing I would offer is don’t involve more than one variable at a time. Pick a problem, and go through everything involved from beginning to end one step at a time in a logical order. Such as overheating- engine runs, you made the fan run and still overheating. What’s left? Water pump, possibly air pocket in the coolant, blown head gasket. I know it tries your patience but you can do it. Did you replace the fuel filter? This thing was on a construction site and you even commented on how dirty it was. What are the chances it could have dirt in the gas tank? Good luck. PS Don’t throw parts at it. That is expensive, time consuming and usually ineffective. Pop Bob

I have looked at about every aftermarket UTV/ATV dealer in the US. As of today no one carries an aftermarket clutch for the Kioti. The only option I've found is the dealership. They quoted me an estimate of $2290.00 to replace mine. I brought it back to my farm and disassembled it myself in about 40 minutes. The dealer tries to make it sound like its "rocket science". The CVT technology is 70 years old and was used on farm equipment back in the 1950's. The clutch is just a shody made Chinese clone. I'm still looking.

Harvey, thank you for posting. It's very helpful to the rest of us Kioti K9 owners. I am definitely interested in hearing about your clutch upgrade. I'm hopeful you find a suitable better replacement.

Harvey, let us know how the replacement clutch goes. Matching non OEM parts can sometimes be difficult. Thank you

Have you looked in the "files" section (go to the top of the forums, click download button)? People have kindly uploaded wiring diagrams for other Hisun models, and what looks like a Hisun 800 service manual. Disconnected plugs *MAY* be wiring for optional accessories, such as light bars, etc. Best of luck!

I own a K9 with 50hrs that has been in for repair more than once the farm. Multitude of issues, trying to file lemon on it but interested in knowing if owners are organizing for a class action suit. The dealer informs me there are “a lot of owners very unhappy with these”. Thanks

I own the Kioti K-9 2440. I purchased it back during the pandemic when Deere and Kubota could not be found in inventory. I previously owned a 2012 John Deere 855 D and ran it for 10 plus years on a commercial poultry operation 7 days per week. It had over 5500 hours on it when I sold it to an employee and purchased the Kioti. The K-9 has not been a reliable unit. With only 750 hours logged, it's spent over 3 months at the dealership for miscellaneous repairs, mostly clutch and drive-line issues. The diesel engine has been great. It's now down again. The primary CVT clutch separated. I carried it back to the dealership and they quoted me a repair estimate of $2,290 to replace the primary and the belt which is only about 6 months old. Declined his offer and retrieved the unit from the dealership. Today, I finally had the time to pop the primary clutch off and discovered the back side of the pulley completely separated from the clutch assembly. I'm now looking a better clutch option. Obviously, the OEM won't cut the mustard. I've contacted Mother Clutches. Hopefully, they have an aftermarket that will be a little more durable.

It's a bblast..trust me. 😁

Sounds like a fast fun ride.

Most of us complain about the ridiculous noise in the cabin. My wife likes to ride but the noise is a major downer. You can’t even have a conversation without shouting at each other. Well, I manage to reduce the cabin noise by approx 200%! I addressed the intake that is poorly placed right between the driver and passenger. First, I cut the air filter inlet pipe in half (pic 1). I then reinstalled it upside down (pic 2). I then attached a flexible intake tube (pic 3) and directed it behind the cabin (pic 4). Major difference. Then I covered the interior engine cover with Dynamat extreme and then 200 mil Chaogang sound deadener / heat shield mat on top of that (pic 5). Since I cut off the intake and redirected it, I completely closed off the intake (engine fence) so no engine noise can come thru (pic 6). It also reduced the heat approx 50%. I did leave on the heat mat that came stock on the engine cover, so it has 3 different mats. It was a snug fit. Major difference again. My wife rides all the time now since we can have a conversation when we ride. Major improvement to my riding experience. Thought you might like to check it out.

Yes, please let me know how it goes. I'm interested. Oh, i forgot, you'll need one of these rollers. Trust me, it make a big difference in your application staying/sticking in place permanently. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015WJH4ZW?ref=fed_asin_title The rain sock/air filter goes on the end of your flexible duct tube intake. Just for extra measure.

Let me know if that works for you. Then you can add new folders, just name each one differently. OR You can keep adding to the original folder. ---------Blair

I'm happy for ya. Hope it brings you lots of fun times.

Maybe that's why he needs such a fast car! To outrun her.

I use CASTROL ACTEVO .Wet clutch approved 10w40. Have used it for years in all my ATVS ..Never fried a clutch yet. Buy it by the big jug at Wallyworld. I did see a guy put STP in his Honda once..clutch began slipping in hours .

Say whaaaaaaaat???

J..you are correct, won't be cheap................

Hope you have plenty cash..what you describe will be very expensive for a weekend toy

Hey Kevin + Shelbie, I suggest formatting the UBS drive. Then create 1 folder and put all your tracks in the folder. Preferably in mp3 format. Then try again. What media player are you using?

That is a bummer. Nothing like that for me. It gets cold here at 6900 ft, and I've never had an instance of the issues like you mention. My driveway has a significant hill (50 ft rise over 300 ft) and we power up it no problem with a full load of slash (on the big bed, piled high) and two people. I'd reach out to Landmaster directly to see if they have ideas.

I'm thinking the gear senser needs adjusting, maybe it thinks its in reverse and the rev limiter kicks in.

Hey UTV Board stie Admins: The board needs to award Ben1098 the UTV Board "Medal of Honor". !! 👍👍👍

Only thing I can think of that you haven't already done is look at the fuel pump. There is a filter on it but you have to pull the pump to look at it. If that is the problem consider installing an inline filter before the pump.

I had 12V on the one post, but nothing happened when I turned the key to start it. It ended up being a loose connection going into the relay/fuse box. Far right connection doesn't seat the whole way. I have it ziptied in place for now, but would like a better solution. With the wiring fixed, I did a valve adjustment and it fired right up, but seems to be lacking power on hills. I just ran it around my yard real quick and definitely feels like it's lacking power on anything other than flat ground. I guess I'll have to inspect the clutch next.

Please let me know if it stays running

Do me a favor and unplug both O2 sensors and let me know if it stays running

Okay I completed the change. So hopefully this helps someone else. I confirmed the filter matches identical, so don't go buy an OEM filter unless you wanna pay 4 times as much. They were literally identical except the filter material was a different color. So the drain is the same as older units...so is the fill (better have a super long/flexible funnel). Literally the only difference is the filter. Slightly behind oil dipstick is a round metal "cap" held on by 3 small bolts. Pull all 3 and the cap just falls off..along with some oil. Be careful, there is a o-ring that could come off...mine stayed on the motor. You just grab the filter and pull it out. Shove the new one in and you can kind of feel the rubber gasket "stick" when you push it in (only can go one way, rubber side in). Cap back on...done.

I see the cover he is talking about. It is right near where the external/standard filter used to be on all the 550-750 previous models. I didnt want to open it up yet till my new filter comes in. I'm new to the forum, but I think I can attach pictures? If so I'll take a couple pics when I get it open in the next couple days.

Well, when all else fails you can always call the headquarters in Texas. Or maybe get an email address for a technician who can help.

Tell me about it lol. I feel like a dummy or blindget this...the manual has a oil change interval and literally says "make sure and change the filter when you change the oil" but doesn't say a thing about where it is...no pictures. I just can't believe nobody has a YouTube video of a 760, or even a 750, I can find. I feel like I need to make one once I get this figured out cause nobody seems to have info on these.

Don't know if this will help, but I have a 2019 T-boss 410, and there's no oil filter. I understand that there's a big difference between your 2022 760 and my 2019 410, but if you look under the engine from under the machine, you should see a hole that is where the drain plug is located. There's no oil filter (disappointed in that), but there's some sort of spring on the drain plug. I have wondered if there's some way to engineer an oil filter, like maybe remotely. I doubt I helped you, but maybe if you find the drain plug, you'll be able to get the answer to your question. Good luck! Let us know what you find out.
