Kioti PX1002 NFM Test Review

This is a New Farm Machinery Magazine field test of the Kioti PX1002, a 100hp secondary tractor for hobby farms. Tom Dixon walks through the Perkins four-cylinder engine, 32x32 synchromesh transmission, dual hydraulic pump setup, auto-PTO shutoff, and quick-release loader, then reports a day spent actually running a mower, plow, and boom sprayer, including honest gripes about cab entry and handbrake placement. Good for buyers wanting real working impressions, not just a walkaround.

Produced by New Farm Machinery Magazine's Tom Dixon, a trade-publication tester rather than a dealer or private owner, giving a hands-on but promotional-adjacent perspective.
