Attachments for the MTZ walk-behind tractor

Since 1978, the specialists of the Minsk Tractor Plant began to produce small-sized equipment for personal subsidiary plots. After some time, the enterprise began to manufacture Belarus walk-behind tractors. Today MTZ 09N, which appeared in 2009, is very popular. This device differs from other models in high-quality assembly and versatility. Also, a feature of the motor is its compatibility with aggregated attachments.

This walk-behind tractor is popular for a reason, because it has a number of advantages:

• the body is made of cast iron, which provides a high level of strength and reliability;
• lack of cables;
• the gearbox is also made of cast iron;
• the unit has a reverse gear, which greatly simplifies the work on the site;
• the handle is made of ergonomic materials;

• the device works almost silently;
• a small amount of fuel is consumed during operation;
• multifunctionality allows you to significantly simplify and speed up work;
• the unit is resistant to long-term daily loads in all weather conditions;
• good adhesion to the soil is provided;
• there is a steering lock.

The balance of the weight of the walk-behind tractor makes it possible to easily move the device along the ground. Thanks to the ergonomics, the operator needs to make a minimum of effort to ensure good soil cultivation. All these advantages make it possible to successfully use the MNZ 09N walk-behind tractor in various situations. The only drawback of this unit is its rather high cost, which is why not everyone can afford such a purchase.

Connecting a walk-behind tractor is extremely simple. You do not need to have special skills or knowledge for this. The only nuance that can upset the owner of the walk-behind tractor is the weight of the device. Due to the fact that some models are quite heavy, it will be difficult for the owner alone to lift the unit and install it.

Removing snow without using special equipment is very difficult. For this, it is recommended to use the Belarus walk-behind tractor with additional equipment. Two types of attachments are suitable for clearing snow.

• Snow blower - removes snow with a bucket and throws it out 2-6 m. The distance depends on the type and power of the walk-behind tractor.
• Dump - very similar to a shovel, has the shape of an arc and is at an angle. When moving, it throws snow in one direction, thereby removing it from the road.

Snow blowers are distinguished by a complex structure, their cost is several times higher than the price of dumps. In this case, both types of hinge plate perform the same functions.

The main tasks of the Belarus walk-behind tractor are plowing and milling the soil. Attachment types such as cutters and cultivators are used to loosen and mix the topsoil. This improves soil fertility. Also, devices that plow the land include a harrow and a plow. Each type of construction is used in specific cases.

• The milling cutter is used for processing medium-sized soils in large areas with a hard surface.

• It is appropriate to use the cultivator in spring and autumn, when weeds and other excess crops remain in the soil after winter.The device grinds all residues, making the soil homogeneous.

• Experts recommend using the plow for deep tillage with the MTZ walk-behind tractor. It falls into the soil 20 cm, thoroughly mixing the lower layers of the earth.
• The harrow is necessary for operation after plowing the area with a plow or cultivator. This unit crushes piles of earth that have remained after previous work.

To make caring for seedlings easier, as well as to minimize manual intervention, it is necessary to use a hiller. Its attachment to the 09N walk-behind tractor significantly increases the speed and quality of processing. The hiller is presented in two types: with plows and discs. The soil is thrown as it passes through the row onto bushes with plants. As a result, weeds are dug up and appear on the surface of the earth. This procedure is more gentle than working with a hoe.

It is difficult for farmers who grow potatoes to do without a special unit - a potato planter. With regard to harvesting, a potato digger is successfully used for this. Such useful devices greatly simplify and speed up the work of farmers. The vibratory conveyor digger is very popular. It can lift the fruit from a depth of up to 20 cm, and with the help of vibration, pieces of soil are removed from the potatoes.

The potato planter works on a simple principle. The plow makes holes for planting, after which a special device puts the potatoes in them, and two disks bury it.

This device makes it easier to mow grass and grain harvest. The modern market offers rotary and segment mowers. Their main difference is knives. In rotary mowers, they rotate, and in segment mowers, they move horizontally. In the first case, mowing is more efficient, which is why such models are more in demand.

Motoblock "Belarus" is a device on one axle, equipped with two wheels. The machine is operated by the hands of the operator walking from behind. If work is carried out on a large area, then they require serious physical effort. An excellent solution in this case is to install an adapter that is attached to the walk-behind tractor. This element greatly facilitates the operator's work.

Another useful addition to the walk-behind tractor is the trailer. This is a kind of cart or stroller that the owner can fill with the harvested crop. The power of the 09N unit allows transporting goods weighing up to 500 kg. The trailer can be used to facilitate transportation. The designs of modern trailers are varied, you can choose any option. The carrying capacity of the devices also varies.

To ensure maximum adhesion of the unit to the soil, lugs and weighting materials are often used. They are necessary in order for the mounted elements to work the soil with maximum efficiency. A lug is a rim fixed in place of a wheel. Plates are installed around the circumference of the rim, which provide good grip and prevent the suspension from jumping.

Weights are attached to a walk-behind tractor or attachments. They give weight to the device, thereby ensuring an even treatment of the area.

Before you start using the walk-behind tractor, it is necessary to run the engine in so that all the elements run in to each other, and the grease gets even into hard-to-reach areas. It is important that the walk-behind tractor is always kept clean. It is also necessary to carry out regular maintenance. After each use, remove all dirt and adhering pieces of earth from the structure, as residues of it can cause corrosion.Check the bolts before use, as they can gradually loosen during operation.
