Ennobling and caring for a land plot is a tedious and tedious business. But it’s good if it’s 5 acres, but if it’s 20, 30 or even more? Then the work turns into a real hard labor, where you have to disappear almost all day long. And this is throughout the spring, summer and fall.
In this case, special agricultural equipment acts as a panacea, namely motoblocks and sheds for them. They make life much easier for both rural residents and urban summer residents who decide to acquire a solid plot and want to eat only their own from the garden.
Today's agricultural machinery market offers many options for both walk-behind tractors and sheds, for almost all occasions. It is quite easy to get confused in all this diversity, especially for an inexperienced consumer. Experts in this field and experienced farmers recommend taking a closer look at the Neva walk-behind tractor and attachments for it. For a good half of beginner summer residents and mid-range farmers, this will be the best option both technically and financially.
So, we present to your attention the mostpopular attachments for the Neva walk-behind tractor. Consider the main characteristics of canopies, their purpose, as well as the feasibility of acquiring in a particular case. The Neva MB-2 walk-behind tractor will act as a "guinea pig". This is one of the most common and popular options in the domestic market.
Types of equipment
All attachment kits can be divided into areas of application. Such a classification will narrow the circle of choice and more accurately determine the future purchase.
Types of canopies:
- Tillage (milling cutters, plow, hiller, grouser).
- Planting (planters).
- Harvesting (all kinds of diggers).
- Bevel (mowers - blade, disc).
- Cleaning (brushes, snow blowers).
- Transportation (trolleys, couplers).
Let's take a closer look at each category.
Cutters
The package with the Neva MB-2 walk-behind tractor includes 8 cutters with a diameter of 36 cm. They allow you to loosen the soil up to 120 cm wide and up to 20 cm deep. They showed themselves perfectly in practice, but only on cultivated areas.
If the land rested for more than a year, and the soil was not ennobled in any way, then this attachment for the Neva walk-behind tractor will be useless. In this case, more drastic actions are needed, as well as other sheds - a plow and a hiller.
Plow
The plow is an important and widely demanded attachment for the Neva walk-behind tractor. Its main task is plowing and marking the furrows. The design of the plow allows you to open layers of soil and cut entire layers. The performance of this canopy depends primarily on the quality of the steel from which it is made, as well as on the exterior of the structure.
To install the plow, you will need the original hitch for the Neva walk-behind tractor. The latter helps to adjust the position of the canopy on three axes. On sale you can find plows both with a hitch and without it. The most common canopy model is P 1 20/3. This plow leaves stripes up to 220 mm and opens soil up to 215 mm deep. The model is quite light and weighs only 8 kg.
Reversible plows are often used with the Neva. In this case, we have two main elements instead of one. This allows you to cultivate the land without gaps. A good part of such equipment weighs a lot, so for balancing use special weights or adapters for attachments for the Neva walk-behind tractor.
Glusers
If more depth is needed, lugs can be used. In their appearance, they resemble tractor wheels, only in miniature. Such a canopy virtually eliminates slippage and helps to pile up the soil, weed, plow and dig up various root crops.
The form factor of the lugs prevents the walk-behind tractor from tipping over at decent capacities, and the canopy itself moves easily and simply, especially on loose soil. The weight of the equipment at the same time is very decent - 10-15 kg each.each wheel.
Experienced farmers recommend using KUM metal canopies for the Neva (700 mm/15 kg each) as a universal option, or for hilling - K-T models (680 mm/10 kg each).
Okuchnik
The hiller for the Neva walk-behind tractor has a frame made of metal, which is supported by support wheels. Rotary harrows are attached to the latter. This canopy is designed to organize grooves for planting.
In addition, the hiller is very often used in weed control, to loosen the soil and add soil to the roots of crops. Such canopies sometimes act as an alternative to cutters or even plows. Therefore, the hiller can be called universal equipment.
On sale you can find models for one row - OH2/2 and for two rows - STV. The latter can also be with a hitch - OND and go into the ground up to 220 mm. Other models - up to 200 mm. Hillers can be adjusted and set the required inter-row width - from 400 to 700 mm.
It's also worth noting that this is quite heavy equipment. Double-row canopies can weigh 18 or more kilograms, while a single-row hiller is only 4-6 kg.
Digger
Motoblock digger is most often used for potato crops and, along with a plow, enjoys enviable popularity among domestic farmers. As a rule, it is called so - a potato digger. Such equipment greatly increases the efficiency of harvesting. Some farmers try to use insteaddigging plow, but at the same time a large part of the crops deteriorates.
This canopy breaks the ground with due care and care and raises the root crops to the surface without any serious damage. In addition to potatoes, the digger is great for picking beets, garlic and onions.
Maximum depth, as well as the speed of opening the soil in intelligent canopies can be adjusted before starting work. A striking example of a high-quality digger for the Neva walk-behind tractor is KNM. It goes to a depth of up to 220 mm and distributes in breadth up to 250 mm. The equipment weighs not so much when compared with the above described canopies - only 5 kg.
Hitch
A good half of the canopies require a special hitch to work properly. It can be either bundled with the equipment or purchased separately. Each walk-behind tractor has its own original clutch mechanism, including our "Neva", so anyhow which one will not work here.
For example, a hitch to the Neva for a hiller and similar canopies - STV or OND, for a plow and analogues - PNS-SN. For other equipment, there are more versatile options - CB1 / 1 and "Base". CB1 / 1 is larger and weighs almost 4 kg, and the second is compact at 2.5 kilos. Naturally, it is impossible to use the "Base" for heavy canopies. She just won't pull them.
Trolley
Almost every farmer bought or at least thought about buying a special cart for a walk-behind tractor. They are tipper or regularand are designed to carry a variety of goods with different dimensions.
For the "Neva" you can find the following carts:
- TPM (proprietary);
- TPM-M;
- tipper (single axle);
- normal on chassis (two axles).
TPM modification copes with loads up to 250 kg and has a body of 1330 x 1110 x 300 mm. TPM-M is a little more modest - 1140 x 825 x 300 and with a load capacity of up to 150 kg. The dump cart carries up to 250 kg and has several modifications (sizes). The two axles can support 500 kg and also differ from each other in their dimensions.
Mower
Attachments to the Neva walk-behind tractor of this kind can be used both for mowing ordinary lawns and for haying for livestock. It all depends on the modification of the canopy. The cutting height can be adjusted manually or automatically. In the latter case, it uses an expensive electric drive.
Experienced farmers recommend using the time-tested scythe-canopy KR-05. In one pass, the model mows a strip of half a meter wide with a cutting height of up to 4 cm. The speed of movement on grass of medium density is approximately 0.3 m / s. The model weighs just over 30 kilograms.
If you need a more serious option, then you can look at the Zarya rotary mower. It is noticeably more efficient than KR-05 and processes a strip 80 cm wide in one pass. In one hour, the mower processes about 0.15hectares of grass of medium density. True, one nuance must be taken into account here. Rotary models, although more efficient than others, are less maneuverable than knife models, so mowing between trees or bushes can turn into a problem, especially if the distance there is very small.
Cleaning
Motoblock is useful not only in the summer months, but also in the winter. On sale you can find attachments for snow removal. This will eliminate the tedious work of a shovel. And if in the southern regions of the Russian Federation such equipment is devoid of practicality, then in the northern regions, where snow blockages occur almost every day, it is extremely necessary.
One of the brightest representatives of this segment is a rotary brush designed specifically for the Neva - ShchRM. The canopy has almost a meter reach (880 mm) and sweeps the area at a speed of 1 meter per second, which is very good. In addition, the model performed very well in the autumn, when the site is full of fallen leaves and other debris.
If you need a more powerful solution for a serious snow removal campaign, then you can look towards specialized SMB equipment. It copes well with icy areas and grinds even bare ice. In this case, the canopy is additionally equipped with an outlet that throws snow 5 meters away.
Features of the Neva MB-2 walk-behind tractor
As mentioned above, there are plenty of sheds for this walk-behind tractor. But even if there was no specific equipment for sale, then ityou can redo it with your own hands specifically for the Neva. Fortunately, regular places here are more or less universal, and serious problems with awnings from other manufacturers should not arise.
Besides, almost every second car service, including garage ones, sins with such alterations. And finding a good master is not difficult.
Some craftsmen got the hang of designing attachments literally from improvised materials. The latter, as a rule, are in abundance for any household farmer: pipe cuttings, metal sheets, rods and other, so to speak, rubbish.
To implement the ideas, you need a canopy layout with dimensions, as well as minimal knowledge of welding. Well, actually, the welding machine itself.
For example, you will have to buy a mower for a walk-behind tractor in any case if you need frequent mowing. But removing grass by hand, especially on a large area, is an unpleasant and tedious task. It is much more practical to do this with a rake attached to a walk-behind tractor.
All you need in this case is a metal pipe or channel and rods. The latter must be bent in a half ring and welded to the pipe. Weld the lock for the hitch exactly in the middle, and the rake for quick mowing is ready. In the same way, you can make a potato digger, hiller and other simple canopies. This will save the lion's share of the budget.
If you are too lazy to do it all yourself, then again, there are masters, including garage ones. The total cost of equipment will still be lower thanbuying a branded canopy in the store.
