Overview
This is an owner's first-use test of a budget Amazon ballast box on his Kioti, not a Kioti-specific buying guide. He installs it, fills it with roughly 400-500 pounds of pea gravel bags, then compares lifting a log with the grapple and moving IBC totes with forks before and after adding the weight. Useful for owners considering a cheap counterweight solution rather than deep implement comparison.
