The mower for a motor-cultivator "Neva" refers to the auxiliary equipment of the multifunctional agricultural unit "Neva", which is in great demand among summer residents and agricultural producers. This motor-cultivator is unproductive on its own, but when it is assembled as a trailed or attached device, it makes it possible to perform any agricultural work on the ground. Mowing attachments are coupled with the motor drive of the cultivator, with the help of which it is driven. There are 2 basic modifications of mowers: segment and rotary.

Segment Mower

These mechanisms are often used in large overgrown areas, as well as for mowing for harvesting straw and hay. The mower easily functions both on the plain and in areas with difficult terrain. At a speed of movement of the unit up to 4 km / h, the grass is cut off at the very edge, then gently and evenly placed on the ground with rollers. The segment mower for cultivator is characterized by excellent productivity and ease of operation. The principle of operation of the mechanism is based on the reciprocating movements of the knives from the power drive of the cultivator. One of the segments of the mower with cutting fingers is in continuous movement (to the left and to the right), the other is static. While the grass is caught between the toes, the stalks are cut evenly.

The mower mates and attaches to the front of the cultivator. The structure stands securely on wheels, on the sides of the cutting system there are specialized skids for adjusting the bevel height.

The segment mower has the following positive qualities:

  • controlled shutdown mechanism;
  • absence of mechanical vibrations (vibration);
  • regulation of the degree of inclination;
  • the functioning of the trimming knives directly at the roots of vegetation;
  • production of hardened steel knives;
  • wear resistance of the protective cover;
  • long service life;
  • availability of spare parts;
  • ease of use;
  • comfort at work;
  • security.

In addition to the positive qualities, this device has disadvantages:

  • large dimensions and weight;
  • difficulties in maintenance;
  • high price.

The KN-1.1 installation is an example of such suspended equipment for motor-cultivators of the Neva trademark.

Rotary mounted mowing machine

The rotary attachment for the Neva motor-cultivator is suitable for mowing thick grass, undersized bushes, any hard vegetation with a diameter of no more than one centimeter. It is hung in front of the Neva motor-cultivator.

The principle of operation of the device is simple: By means of a gearbox equipped with pulleys and a belt drive, the mower receives the torque from the motor, which spins the discs with retractable blades. Basically, everything is based on the force of inertia. The blades under its influence function all the time while the motor of the cultivator is functioning.

The disadvantages of this modification are mainly due to the unreliability of the power drive and its rapid wear.According to the reviews of the owners, it is especially sensitive to the structure of the grass stand: it perfectly mows legumes (for example, clover), but it hardly functions on land with cereals (in particular, with an awnless fire).

For the rotary mower to function properly, it is necessary that the crankshaft rotates as high as possible. It is thanks to this that the grass is rolled into swaths. In order not to "torment" the engine, the jack of all trades came up with a simple solution: to install a transmission pulley of a larger diameter on the walk-behind tractor. Additionally, when working with a rotary device, it would not hurt for the landscape of the site to be even, since very often the rotary unit rests against even small obstacles (mole holes, anthills).

Model line

The name of the fixtures may vary depending on the manufacturer, but the brand remains the same. The cost for all manufacturers is different - it depends on the materials that were used to create this model.

Rotary mower "Zarya"

The Zarya mowing machine for the Neva motor-cultivator is made in Russia and China. The domestic one is produced by Kaluga Engine. The Chinese device is darker in color.

According to the reviews of the owners who disassembled the Chinese-made Zarya, there is a small amount of lubricant in the gearbox. With long-term operation (more than 3 years), traces of depletion on the gears do not appear. Consequently, high-quality steel is also used in Chinese-made Zarya. But before using the Chinese version, it is better to open the gearbox and add lubricant.

We will not talk about the quality indicators of the domestically produced Zarya. She won the hearts of a large number of users of the Neva motor-cultivator and the like. We only note that the patent for the production of this modification is held exclusively by the Kaluga Engine, and everything else is a fake of a popular and current device.

"Neva-KR-05"

This rotary mowing machine is manufactured by the manufacturer of the Neva motor-cultivator - Krasny Oktyabr (St. Petersburg). It was created specifically for this type of cultivator. Prototypes and other manufacturers of such attachments simply do not exist. This is a rather small piece with a weight less than that of a 2-disc mower. It is suitable for gardeners and people who have small mowing areas. The equipment is quite mobile. The device is not afraid of stones, anthills, or thick branches. The scythe is quite powerful and can be controlled even with very neglected areas. In addition, the device is used for mowing grain crops and single bushes.

The model structure includes one large disc. It moves effortlessly along the ground and easily mows the grass in the most inaccessible places.

Segment mowing machine for motor-cultivator "Neva KN-1.1"

Such a mower is intended for motoblocks of the MB1 and MB2 models. This mower is used to mow grass to feed livestock. The mower does not crush the grass during operation and places it in even rows. It is managed in inaccessible wooded and swampy areas. This sample is being manufactured at many enterprises of the Russian Federation.

Selection recommendations

Selecting an attachment for making hay using the Neva MB 2 motor-cultivator and using it as a lawn mower, it is necessary to take into account:

  • type and landscape of the territory;
  • the structure of the grass stand and its changes;
  • own material opportunities;
  • the possibilities of a motor-cultivator in the matter of installing attachments;
  • required engine power.

Safety rules for working with mounted mowers

When operating a unit of any kind (rotary or segment) it is imperative that you adhere to the safety regulations.

  • before starting work, it is required to check the serviceability of all fasteners and connections;
  • it is forbidden to stand in front of the cutting device during work;
  • interrupt the use of the unit if a problem occurs;
  • all repair and technical actions should be carried out exclusively with the device's motor turned off;
  • it is necessary to inspect the belt tension and tightening of the nuts every 2 hours of the working cycle;
  • do not exceed the maximum permitted speed of movement - the mowing will turn out to be of low quality;
  • turn off the drive of the mower when transporting it;
  • be careful not to touch the cutting components of the machine when moving or lifting it.
