Gasoline domestic cultivators for home and garden Mobile K. Features and advantages.
Spring is approaching and many owners of country farms are thinking about purchasing specialized equipment to carry out the work. For them, a real gift can be the offer of a domestic manufacturer - MOBILE K walk-behind tractors. The assortment includes devices for semi-professional and professional household use.
Mobil-K walk-behind tractors are universal helpers in the garden at the dacha and even in farms and public utilities. With the help of these devices you can perform a wide variety of work - cultivating the soil and doing household work. The walk-behind tractors were developed jointly with Italian specialists, but are entirely manufactured in Russia using imported components. Mobil-K petrol walk-behind tractors are in no way inferior to imported analogues, but at the same time have an affordable price for a wide range of buyers.
The main advantages of Mobil K walk-behind tractors.
The advantages of domestic walk-behind tractors can be divided into two categories - structural and operational. All of them make this technology attractive.
The power plant of the walk-behind tractors is made up of professional series gasoline engines from the world's leading companies, Dinking, Briggs&Stratton, Subaru-Robin, and HONDA. Engines from these manufacturers ensure the efficiency and reliability of walk-behind tractors. The selection and distribution of power from the engine is ensured by a full-fledged multi-stage gearbox. The number of available speeds is individual for each model.
It is worth noting that all walk-behind tractors are equipped with a power take-off system for connecting additional devices and equipment. Depending on whether the walk-behind tractor belongs to a particular series, power take-off occurs via a belt or shaft.
Trailers
In farming and municipal services, there is often a need to transport small items over short distances. Plowman walk-behind tractors are perfectly adapted to work with all types of trailed devices.
The following can be attached to the unit:
- Adapter. It is a compact cart with 1 axle and a seat. Used for agricultural work that lasts for a long time. The adapter eliminates the need for the operator to walk around the area and significantly reduces the load on his arms and back.
In low gear, the walk-behind tractor can tow a trailer with a total weight of up to 500 kg. In this case, fuel consumption will not exceed 2 l/h.
Owner reviews
Owners of the MZR-800 note its functionality and ease of operation, as well as strong vibration during operation and difficulties in cultivating virgin lands.
Andrey, Lipetsk:
“In my opinion, the Plowman’s wheels are very small. Although the walk-behind tractor is not bad, in its class it is very good. I plan to replace the wheels by at least 5.00, 4 seems very small to me, when we work with the cutter, it falls over or slips at times. It’s a big plus that there is a PTO, even though it’s a small walk-behind tractor. Ignition is difficult, vibration is noticeable. Pros: the body is well painted, attractive design, handles with rubber holders, the frame is strong.”
Oleg, Ivanovo:
“I have been using the MZR-800 walk-behind tractor for more than 6 years. During this time I only changed the oil. Of course, the Plowman is designed for simple work, or with soil that has already been developed. I have a small cart for it, with its help I carry loads around the site, I did minor repairs in the garage, so the walk-behind tractor was very useful to me. The universal assistant, in short, works not only on the ground. Advantages: the walk-behind tractor is convenient, very light, and easy to operate. Protective wings help when milling - they provide good protection from the ground. Disadvantages: you can’t treat virgin soil like this, I can’t imagine how. Although he drags a cart, of course, but still, for heavy soil, take something else, weighing more than a hundred kg.”
Models
Back in 1988 (it had a different name then), it began producing additional attachments for agricultural machines. Over time, production expanded, and in the early 90s the production of Plowman walk-behind tractors began. Now 3 main models are coming out of the plant assembly line: MZR 800, 820 and 830. These modifications are equipped with a four-stroke air-cooled engine. The enterprise has its own service center and if you have any questions about the operation of the purchased equipment, you can always contact them.
MZR 800
The sample is equipped with a gasoline engine producing 8 hp. 92 gasoline is used as fuel. This is a lightweight model weighing 75 kilograms including attachments. The unit is used in prepared areas where the soil has been previously processed. During the operation of the walk-behind tractor, you can adjust the plowing width by 80 and 100 centimeters. The entry depth of the plow or cutter is adjusted in the range of 15-30 centimeters. According to its characteristics, the device is somewhat reminiscent of Energoprom walk-behind tractors made in Russia and China.
The plowman easily performs cultivation, plowing, hilling and other simple operations. The performance of the machine is not at all affected by the conditions in which it is located, be it a hot summer or a cold and snowy winter. It copes equally well with cultivating the soil in the field and clearing snow in the yards. However, it is advisable to use this model on areas of no more than 30 acres. Moreover, in order to prevent the engine from overheating, it is necessary to turn off the device after two hours of operation and give it a little rest, for about 20-30 minutes.
The basic package of the model includes:
- metal carcass;
- set of cutters;
- pneumatic two wheels;
- machine maintenance tools;
- manual.
Warranty period – 1 year.
MZR 820
This representative of the Plowman family is designed to work on land plots whose area does not exceed 15-20 acres. For the 820 model, the technical characteristics are practically no different from the MZR 800. A design feature is a cast iron gearbox. Thanks to it, the walk-behind tractor is able to withstand high loads for a long time. The weight of the structure is an order of magnitude greater and is already 85 kilograms. This model allows you to increase the width of the cultivated area of soil up to 105 centimeters.
Do not refuel your walk-behind tractor with low-quality fuel.
The walk-behind tractor belongs to the light-class models for working on simple soils. Harrows, hillers, potato diggers, snow removal mechanisms or dumps for snow and debris are used as attachments. The device does not operate in industrial environments. Its function is to simplify work on a small plot or vegetable garden.
Advice. It is not recommended to refuel the walk-behind tractor with low-octane fuel, otherwise the filters will become clogged more often, which will ultimately lead to engine failure.
The company has launched the production of a more advanced model of the Plowman - the TSR 820 RN walk-behind tractor with a gasoline engine. The only difference from the 820 sample is that it is equipped with a cast iron gearbox and wheels with improved maneuverability.
MZR 830
It is in greatest demand among gardeners. This walk-behind tractor model has already been improved. The design contains an engine with a power of 8 horsepower, which is started from a manual starter. The car has 3 speeds: two forward and one reverse. The weight of this model is 5-7 kilograms more than the previous version, and the processing width has been increased to 110 centimeters. Judging by the indicators, this sample can be classified as a heavy model of walk-behind tractor. Therefore, it is used with pleasure on difficult soils: virgin soil, clayey and loam. For such work, it is recommended to install special weights or weights on the product.
Attachments
The name of the Plowman walk-behind tractor speaks loudly for itself. They are designed for processing land: plowing, milling, hilling, etc. All this is possible thanks to the installation of additional attachments.
Every owner or potential buyer should be familiar with the types and types of awnings. Let's look at each of them in more detail.
Milling cutter
The cutter is included in the factory kit of each walk-behind tractor. It is used to mix the top fertile layer of soil and further increase fertility.
When assembling the cutters, it is necessary to follow the recommendations of the user manual, since a violation of the sequence can lead to the knives flying out or uneven tillage.
Saber cutters
Plow
Plowing is designed for processing hard rocks. It is used in cases where milling does not produce results due to the impossibility of immersing the cutter knives into the ground.
During plowing, the main task is to make the first rut level. Then one wheel of the Plowman Gagarin walk-behind tractor is placed in this track, and work continues.
Plow PNM 1-20
Reversible plow
Plow
Rotary plows have a special ploughshare shape, which is made in the shape of a curved feather. Thanks to this, the earth rotates several times on it, and large piles are broken.
Mowers and rakes
Plowman walk-behind tractors can help rural residents prepare hay for the winter.
Rotary mowers are used for cutting grass. They cut vegetation using rotating knives, which unwind under the influence of centrifugal force. A special feature of rotary mowers is that when they hit a stone, the cutting element turns in the opposite direction and does not break off.
Rotary mower
Rake
After cutting the grass, it can be collected using a rake, which is connected to a walk-behind tractor or adapter and collects the dried vegetation. Their working width is about 1 m.
Potato digger and potato planter
Potatoes are a popular agricultural crop, but planting and harvesting this crop requires a lot of physical effort.
Universal potato digger
Potato digger
Potato planter
One person can handle the Plowman walk-behind tractor with planting and planting potatoes in a short time, thanks to the potato digger and potato planter.
Hillers
Potatoes are specific agricultural crops that require hilling and weeding. The Plowman walk-behind tractor can help in carrying out this work when connecting hillers. They are made in the form of two disks that sink into the ground and, when driven, throw soil from the rows onto the potatoes.
Hiller
Double hiller Disc hiller
Snowblowers and blade shovel
During the winter season, our country experiences heavy snowfalls. And cleaning them requires a lot of physical effort. In the city, utility companies do this, but in a suburban area or rural area you have to do it yourself.
General information, purpose and design features
The walk-behind tractor is produced by Mobile K, a company founded in 1993. Initially, the company produced attachments and components for motorcycles. Later, the production of garden and municipal mini-equipment was mastered. At the moment, the manufacturer is known mainly for its walk-behind tractors and cultivators. One of the brightest models is the MKM-3 plowman Lander. Its production started in 2007.
The quality of the walk-behind tractor gradually improved due to the updating of production facilities. So, in 2008, the company built a high-tech plant specifically for the production of Lander. The plant received modern European automated equipment. Today, the production process at the plant has reached such a level that when assembling walk-behind tractors, the human factor is reduced to zero.
The walk-behind tractor in question comes with a cultivator. The machine is designed for soil cultivation, as well as loosening and leveling land. The delivery set also includes a minimum set of mounted and trailed elements, tools and devices. And yet, most of the equipment will have to be purchased additionally, like from competitors. Thus, auxiliary options allow you to perform such types of work as snow removal, haymaking, cleaning agricultural areas, transporting goods, etc.
According to the manufacturer’s recommendations, it is recommended to fill the walk-behind tractor with oil with an octane rating of at least 92-95, and you should also pay attention to the SE, SF, SG, SH and SJ classes. In addition, the viscosity grade must correspond to SAE 10W40, SAE 10W30 and SAE15W40. If you do not follow these recommendations, before refilling with another oil, there is a risk of equipment failure.
Let's consider the advantages and disadvantages of the walk-behind tractor:
- The equipment is made of high-quality materials that have excellent vibration and noise-absorbing properties. According to this indicator, the MKM-3 walk-behind tractor is considered one of the best among other domestic models
- Possibility to adjust the handle in longitudinal and horizontal position
- The walk-behind tractor uses a Russian-made gearbox. The cast parts of the body are also Russian, as are the gears. Localization at the plant has been increased to 80%.
- Now the version with a three-speed gearbox is considered the most popular. However, there are other modifications - with one forward and one reverse, as well as one forward gear.
- Each walk-behind tractor of the MKM-3 family is positioned as professional elite class equipment. The machine does not have stamped and worm gearboxes, plastic elements, low-quality belts and other parts that do not correspond to equipment of this class.
All about walk-behind tractors "Plowman"
In 1993, it was created, which initially specialized in the manufacture of a variety of attachments for garden and municipal equipment, as well as for motorized agricultural equipment. Time passed, the products gained increasing popularity and demand not only in Russia, but also in Europe and the CIS countries. All this prompted the company’s specialists to create the Lander walk-behind tractor, a new generation of equipment. In the domestic market, walk-behind tractors are called “Plowman”.
Over time, the company realized that its existing production capacity was not enough, so in 2008 it decided to build its own plant that would meet all the requirements and provide everything necessary to design walk-behind tractors and to work on their improvement. This is how “Plowman” machines began to be produced at a professional level.
Today, Lander walk-behind tractors use motors from well-known European brands, and transmissions, drives and other elements are manufactured in Russia. That is why this technique has an excellent combination of affordable cost and excellent quality.
