Choosing wheels for a walk-behind tractor and replacing them yourself: how to install Zhiguli wheels, video

Many farmers ask how to install wheels for a walk-behind tractor with their own hands. Walk-behind tractors are indispensable in summer cottages and fields: they are convenient to use for plowing soil, planting root crops, transporting goods, and clearing the soil of leaves, grass and snow. Sometimes the basic equipment, including wheels, does not fit the cultivator. You can change the chassis yourself by selecting suitable wheels for the walk-behind tractor.

Do-it-yourself lug lugs for a walk-behind tractor

In modern practice, there is no need to purchase such versions of structural elements, since it is possible to do everything necessary yourself. As a rule, this will require certain materials, as well as some auxiliary tools for the manufacture of the corresponding mechanisms. In this case, the procedure for making special homemade lugs is as follows:

1. First of all, you will need to find the appropriate execution diagram, or make it yourself, taking into account the available assembly option.
2. The next step will be to prepare everything necessary to install attachments on the motor cultivator.
3. Next, you need to correctly calculate all the dimensions of the home-made lug for the cultivator to be completed.
4. Additionally, it is necessary to decide on the option of coupling the homemade device and mechanized equipment.

1. Subsequently, according to the prepared scheme, the necessary product for plowing the soil is manufactured.
2. Here, a holding frame is produced separately, and in addition the device itself for cultivating the soil on a plot of land.
3. Subsequently, the manufacture of the appropriate mechanism for coupling with the mount present on the walk-behind tractor is carried out.
4. Next, a complete assembly of the entire mechanism is carried out from previously made individual structural elements and devices.
5. Separately, weighting is arranged here, which can be done with the addition of weights determined by weight.
6. Also, if necessary, you can use a specialized frame that will have the required weight and a shiftable center of gravity.
7. After the structure is assembled, it will need to carry out its initial coupling with the mechanized cultivator.
8. Additionally, a test run of the manufactured equipment is carried out, and, if necessary, adjustments are made.

When producing such technical equipment, the main thing in the work is the search or development of a diagram of a future version of the lug. Having the necessary drawing at your disposal will significantly reduce time costs, since the diagram contains a visual drawing of the device, and in addition, all the necessary dimensions are indicated.

It should be understood that in each individual case the dimensions of the structure are calculated based on the power of the installation, its size, and also the clutch option. In other words, it is not recommended to install a large lug on a walk-behind tractor with low weight and a weak motor, since such equipment can quickly damage the main mechanism due to excessive load.

Important. In practice, to independently carry out such equipment for tillage, any strong metal object can be used, including car wheels, whose service life has already expired

From car rims

Currently, the arrangement of attachments from these elements is quite widespread. This popularity is due to the following characteristic points:

• All car wheels have the necessary structural rigidity, as well as a suitable size and weight.
• Such devices are easy to find (often old devices are stored in the garages of almost all car owners).
• These variants of structural elements are quite easy to process, since they were initially made with an eye to possible repairs.
• The mechanisms already have the cuts and other openings necessary for fastening on their central plane.
• This type of device has a long service life with proper surface treatment.

There are only advantages to using rims from car wheels, since they are the easiest to use to make milling lugs for attachments, which will subsequently be mounted on a walk-behind tractor. Here, when working, you only need to make the necessary cuts with a grinder, and then hang the devices on a special frame, which will be coupled with a walk-behind tractor. The frame itself is made quite heavy to weigh down the structure.

Important. After completing the work of making cutters from discs, all that remains is to sharpen them correctly, so that later when processing arable land, additional weighting is not required

Chainsaw cultivator

Perhaps the best option when making a homemade motor cultivator is to use a chainsaw engine to create it. The advantages here are the performance and power of the unit, undemanding fuel requirements, light weight and compactness.

General diagram of the walk-behind tractor:

• the walk-behind tractor frame is made in the form of a diamond from a metal corner measuring 3200x3200x3200 mm;
• the engine is mounted on the cross members from above, the gas tank, as a rule, is mounted slightly below;
• the intermediate shaft supports are attached to the front struts;
• The running shaft supports are installed on the longitudinal ribs

To regulate the speed, the original gearbox is used; motorcycle sprockets (main and intermediate) are also used, the number of teeth of which is selected taking into account the required power output. The working tools of the unit are made in the form of wheels with knives and can perform the function of a trimmer, a rotary cutter or a rotary hoe.

As an alternative, you can use the engine from a lawn mower, which is similar in its characteristics to the drive of a chain saw.

Wheels for walk-behind tractor - varieties, manufacturing, video

Wheels for a walk-behind tractor are one of its most important components. The cross-country ability, maneuverability and functionality of the walk-behind tractor as a whole will depend on their quality, size and variety.

In order to decide on the optimal choice of wheels for a walk-behind tractor, before purchasing or manufacturing them, you should familiarize yourself with their varieties and features.

Traction wheels

Designed for use of walk-behind tractors in different conditions. They will cope perfectly with the load when transporting heavy objects, and are simply useful for driving on roads and flat surfaces.

Thanks to the special herringbone tread pattern, pneumatic traction wheels can also be easily used for heavier work - plowing, cultivating, hilling, etc. This type of tread allows you to work on sticky or loose soil without much difficulty, without fear of that the unit will get stuck.

• Typically, this type of wheel has fairly wide tires (more than 20 cm) and a large rim diameter (40 cm or more).
• Special types of traction wheels for walk-behind tractors are solid and lug wheels.
• Solid wheels are characterized by increased strength and a more powerful tread.

Lugs are a special type of wheel, consisting of steel rims and special teeth, which are shaped like the same herringbone tread. Although this type of wheel is not large, its weight and design allow it to perform work even on the most difficult soils.

Twin wheels

1. The design of these wheels from a walk-behind tractor involves connecting (pairing) together two identical rims and placing these devices on both sides of the unit.
2. This type of tires for walk-behind tractors significantly increases the cross-country ability of the walk-behind tractor, eliminates the risk of slipping and overturning of equipment, and increases speed on a flat surface.

Support wheel

A special type of wheel attached to the walk-behind tractor is responsible for reducing the load on the operator, taking on the load from the motor and the entire body of the unit. Despite its small size, it is also useful in that it increases the stability of the walk-behind tractor when not in use and makes it easier to transport.

The design of many modern models of walk-behind tractors provides such a wheel or support foot, which is also very convenient.

Wheel extensions for walk-behind tractor

• In order to increase the track width, make the walk-behind tractor more stable and durable, you can make such a simple device as wheel extensions.
• You can make this device with your own hands using the following algorithm:

1. Buy 2 metal pipes. Their diameter should be approximately 1 - 1.5 mm smaller than the diameter of the axle.
2. To attach the pipe to the axle, cut a thread and screw the extension to the walk-behind tractor.
3. The other end of the pipe must be adjusted as closely as possible to the hole in the disks. If necessary, the product can be sharpened. If, after adjusting the extension cord, there are gaps between it and the disk, debris and dirt will clog in them, which will negatively affect the operation of the walk-behind tractor.
4. Steel plates are bolted to the disk, which will connect the extension to the disks.

We invite you to watch the video, which shows in detail the process of manufacturing an extension for the walk-behind tractor axle:

DIY walk-behind tractor wheels

Making wheels on a walk-behind tractor yourself is not such a difficult task.

It is important to have only suitable blanks and tools. Old motorcycle wheels are ideal as blanks.

You can also construct wheels for a walk-behind tractor from car rims.

You should take into account the dimensions in advance - the wheels should be wide enough and massive, with good tread, about 20 inches in diameter. Also take care of an extension cord to increase the track width (the process of making an extension cord is described in the previous section).

Making homemade wheels from car rims should be done according to the following algorithm:

1. Take 4 disks from the car. Their sizes must match exactly.
2. Sand the discs with a file, clearing them of burrs and chips.
3. Weld the discs to each other with the convex side.
4. Put pre-selected tires for a walk-behind tractor on these blanks, inflate them and attach them to the axle.

The manufacturing process for twin wheels is the same, with one small difference. Between the future paired wheels you need to weld a square of appropriate sizes, welded from strips of metal.

Important Technical characteristics and features of the T-70 tractor

Wheels made in this way are ideal for walk-behind tractors of the Neva, Agro, Krot and other well-known manufacturers.

Making homemade lugs

Sometimes pneumatic tires can slip (soft ground, slush after rain, ice) and your work can go down the drain. For better adhesion to the soil, reliable devices are needed. These are ordinary lugs.

You can, of course, buy them in a store, but not everyone wants to spend money on something that is easy to make yourself, and from “waste” materials. Moreover, there are only two requirements for them, and both are necessary to ensure reliable grip:

1. Weight 20-30 kg.
2. Digging into the ground.

There are many options for DIY lug wheels. We will focus on two of them. For their manufacture, the main tools are:

To complete the first option, you will need metal strips (about 5 mm thick) and car rims. Their diameter depends on the size of the cultivator blades. Many people take Lada wheels as the best option. Picture 1.

Figure 2. Homemade lugs for a walk-behind tractor.

The method for making soil hooks is very simple:

• cut strips with a grinder so that their length is approximately one and a half times the width of the disks;
• they are bent in a vice at an angle so that they are inserted between the two sides of the disk;
• distribute the strips evenly and weld them into place;
• strengthen the resulting lugs on the axle.

The second option is more difficult. For it, they take a sheet of thick metal, mark it and cut out something like a large bicycle sprocket or a ratchet from a watch. Next, parts of the resulting beams are bent and metal plates are welded to them. Figure 2.

Wheels from a Zhiguli on a walk-behind tractor

You can also install Zhiguli wheels on walk-behind tractors with your own hands. The diameter of the Zhiguli wheels exactly matches the original wheels. Using Zhiguli wheels is more profitable, since original products, as a rule, are much more expensive. In addition, VAZ wheels are wider, heavier, have better cross-country ability and less slippage.

Attention! Experienced owners of motor cultivators do not recommend wheels from the Niva car due to their inappropriate sizes. In the absence of Zhiguli wheels, Moskvich ones will be quite suitable. When replacing factory wheels with car wheels, the design becomes heavier

An axle shaft is installed inside, onto which metal plates with holes are mounted, acting as weighting agents. Caps are installed on the outside to protect against external damage. The camera moves away. For greater traction of the wheels with the soil, it is possible to tighten a chain on them

When replacing factory wheels with car wheels, the structure becomes heavier. An axle shaft is installed inside, onto which metal plates with holes are mounted, acting as weighting agents. Caps are installed on the outside to protect against external damage. The camera moves away. For greater traction between the wheels and the soil, it is possible to tighten a chain on them.

Zhiguli couple on the Neva

The installation process occurs in the following sequence:

• Installing the axle shaft.
• Removing a tire from a wheel.
• Installation of spikes.
• Attaching the structure to the rim with bolts.
• Replacing disks.
• The structure is screwed to the hubs installed on the walk-behind tractor.

If the goal is to use Zhiguli wheels only for transportation, then the task is simplified - the tire and tube are left, the studs are not welded. Walk-behind tractor at work

You can make wheels for garden motorcycles yourself, improving the design to suit your needs, the tasks assigned to the equipment, and any desired type of soil and terrain. There are quite a lot of options for independent modifications; every gardener and farmer can easily make what he needs for comfortable work.

Recommendations for use

Experts advise not to treat technology carelessly, since then you should not expect stable operation from it. And some more useful recommendations from professionals.

• Weights are an integral part of the design, since without them it is difficult to provide the necessary grip on the surface. The weight exerts additional pressure and is important when using metal wheels.
• It is worth regularly inspecting your equipment and checking tire pressure to avoid damage during transportation.
• If nails, stones or other foreign objects get stuck in the lugs, they must be removed manually, as well as plants and dirt.
• When one wheel is spinning and the other is standing still, you cannot operate the equipment in the hope that after a few meters it will work as expected, this will lead to a more serious breakdown.
• When it is necessary to estimate the track distance, you need to install an extension on the right and left wheels.

• You can also unlock the wheels yourself using bearings, but it’s better to just monitor its condition.
• If an unpleasant odor appears, if the wheel becomes noticeably jammed, then the equipment must be urgently sent to a service center and not use the walk-behind tractor.
• To adjust the position of the plow, the technician must first be placed on the lugs.
• It is recommended to regularly lubricate the moving parts of the wheels to ensure they maintain their integrity.
• The type of wheels used should not be subjected to a load greater than that recommended by the manufacturer.
• If foreign elements get on the lugs and get stuck in them, they need to be cleaned, but the walk-behind tractor engine must be turned off.
• Wheels must be stored in a dry place, so they will last much longer.

Choosing wheels for a walk-behind tractor and replacing them yourself

When purchasing a walk-behind tractor for their household, people focus on engine power and equipment performance. However, the performance of the unit is directly affected by the wheels for the walk-behind tractor. The chassis allows the unit to move around the garden.

Factory models are usually equipped with the correct wheelset. But given the loads on this structural element, the wheels often break. Accordingly, the farmer has to buy the failed part himself.

We will advise you on how to choose suitable wheels and suggest options for making your own chassis yourself.

Criterias of choice

Any garden equipment is available in several variations. The chassis for the walk-behind tractor is no exception to this rule. If you look at the assortment of any store that sells spare parts for walk-behind tractors, you will see that there are three types of wheels:

• Pneumatic. Such products have a rubber tire and inner tube.
• Rubber. Monolithic design, which consists of a rim and durable rubber.
• Lugs. Metal elements aimed at increasing the cross-country ability of vehicles.

The difficulty of choice lies in determining the operating conditions of the equipment. For example, for processing clay areas or wet soil, it is recommended to use lugs.

A walk-behind tractor equipped with conventional rubber wheels will not show good performance in difficult conditions.

In addition, you should focus on the wheel radius and tread pattern

What wheels can be put on a walk-behind tractor? Here a lot depends on the intended use of the technology. If the unit is needed for planting and harvesting work, you can choose pneumatic wheels.

Such products are optimal for working on soft ground. The recommended radius is about 40 centimeters. At the same time, we recommend choosing wheels with deep tread, which will increase maneuverability and cross-country ability.

Cast wheel

For primary cultivation of virgin soil and soil with a high content of stones, it is better to use cast wheels. They receive virtually no mechanical damage due to the absence of an internal chamber.

However, such elements have increased weight, so they are installed on medium and heavy walk-behind tractors.

The lugs not only increase the maneuverability of the equipment, but also increase its productivity. The teeth enter the soil, which creates additional force to move the unit in a given direction.

Wheel lugs

Such elements are used mainly for arable work on large areas of land. It is not advisable to use lugs on a small plot of land.

Pneumatic

These options are perfect for frequent plowing and digging up root crops.
An important point: the width of the wheels should in no case be less than 20 cm, and the diameter – 40 cm. The aggressive tread pattern will be a huge plus. Pneumatic components contribute to the incredible stability of the unit, but if damaged they must be replaced. They are often sold as wheels for Neva walk-behind tractors.

Do it yourself

Now let's talk about how to make wheels for a walk-behind tractor yourself. Let us immediately clarify that creating pneumatic and cast wheels at home is in principle impossible.

And why reinvent the wheel if you can equip garden equipment with tires from a car or motorcycle. You just need to install a suitable hub and you can get to work.

It's a different matter when it comes to lugs. You can actually make such homemade wheels for a walk-behind tractor yourself. Here is a basic assembly diagram:

We take old car wheels

Please note that only the rim is needed. The diameter of the wheels depends on the power of the walk-behind tractor, given that the design will be all-metal, the weight will be considerable. We weld metal plates to the disks

The edges of the plates should touch the edge of the rim. This is an important structural element, so the plates are welded along the entire outer radius; they can be secured with bolts to increase reliability. We weld the teeth to the metal plate. They can be made from a corner, after cutting it into pieces of the required length. Please note that the distance between the teeth should not exceed 15-20 centimeters. Otherwise, the effectiveness of such wheels will be reduced to zero. We weld the axle shafts into the disk, supplement the structure with bearings and install the chassis on the walk-behind tractor.

You can make lugs from an old gas cylinder. In this case, you need to cut two rims, about 6-7 centimeters wide, and then proceed according to the above diagram.

In general, lugs can be constructed from any available material that has the shape of a circle. The main thing is to show desire and apply a little skill.

A walk-behind tractor can do a lot, provided you have the appropriate attachments for it. The main function of a walk-behind tractor (at any level) is tillage.

This means that the walk-behind tractor must be able to plow the ground, hill up, and possibly plant and dig up potatoes under a certain canopy.

And when plowing, you need lugs for the walk-behind tractor; you can make them with your own hands in a few hours.

Why do you need do-it-yourself lugs for a walk-behind tractor?

Of course, to a large extent the quality of work depends on the weight of the unit. You can hang all the most functional awnings only on heavy walk-behind tractors and medium-heavy devices. But the heaviness and professionalism of the walk-behind tractor is not everything.

If you have a seemingly cool unit, but don’t get the desired results, you should purchase wheels with lugs for the walk-behind tractor. You can buy, or you can make lugs for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands. It all depends on the size of the wallet, desire and directness of hands.

Standard lugs for walk-behind tractors are metal wheels with spikes that bite into the ground and connect the walk-behind tractor with the soil.

In order to make lugs for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands, you will need knowledge of the design of lugs (the drawing and diagram will seriously make this task easier for you), determine the diameter of the canopy, select the material for converting into lugs for a walk-behind tractor, and, of course, tools for working with the original material. Essentially, it's a grinder and a welding machine.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OE-CglYKTkc

Before making lugs, decide on their size. The height and width of the lugs depends on the task for which you place them on the walk-behind tractor. Later we will discuss what sizes the factory lugs that you can buy in the store can be.

And also the requirements for the severity of the lugs. After all, you put on wheels with lugs in order to improve the traction of the walk-behind tractor with the ground, and for this you need a good weight of the wheels, which the walk-behind tractor itself may not have enough. The minimum weight of wheels is 20 kg. You can also add weights to the lugs if you want to get a better result or the weight of the wheels is not up to standard.

How to make lugs for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands

The simplest answer to the question of how to make lugs for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands is to take unnecessary rims from car wheels for future lugs. We need to attach an axle shaft to these disks using a welding machine, onto which we will then put bearings. Weld metal square plates to car rims. So that the edges of the plates touch the rim.

The plates then need to be screwed to the rim with bolts. Now we need to make teeth - steel hooks that will go into the ground. To do this, we need a steel plate, for example, a corner, which must be cut into pieces with a grinder and welded from them into the same teeth that are made at the factory. The resulting hooks must be placed on the wheel rim at a distance of 15 cm from each other.

There is another way to make homemade lugs. To do this, use an old gas cylinder. Cut two disks for wheel rims from the cylinder, 5-7 cm wide and 30 cm high. And then everything is the same as you would do with car wheels.

By the way, to improve the performance of wheels with lugs, you can weld another tooth to each hook on top and lengthen the teeth to 60 cm. We need to make an axle. To do this, attach a metal plate to one of the rims on which it will be placed.

As you can see, lugs can be made from any material that has the shape of a circle. The main thing is to choose the right diameter and width for the future wheel with lugs. The dimensions of the wheels are determined by the work for which they are used on the walk-behind tractor. We have already mentioned this.

We make lugs for the Neva walk-behind tractor with our own hands

Each brand of walk-behind tractor has those attachments that are better suited to its design than others. Of course, it is best to buy a universal walk-behind tractor that fits almost any canopy. For the Neva walk-behind tractor, manufacturers made wheels with lugs Ф340х110.

By design, these lugs are somewhat larger than those that we described as a homemade option. Follow the same instructions we provided above, just select different rim sizes. The height of the wheel for lugs for the Neva walk-behind tractor should be 340 mm, and the width of the homemade lug should be 110 mm.

How to make lugs for a Centaur walk-behind tractor

The lugs for the Centaur walk-behind tractor differ only in size. Above we described the dimensions that you need to focus on when converting old wheels into lugs for the Neva. Using the same scheme, you can make wheels with larger lugs. Select a wheel height of 450 mm.

The wheel width should be 110 mm, as you would do for the Neva. Such lugs are suitable for the Centaur 2060, Centaur 2090 walk-behind tractor and similar units. If you want a factory option, store-bought lugs will cost you about $30.

Lugs for walk-behind tractor bison

The Zubr walk-behind tractor is a heavy professional walk-behind tractor. It fits the best attachments available. But in order for the Bison to penetrate the ground perfectly, you need to buy or make lugs for the Bison walk-behind tractor yourself. Standard lugs that fit it are 700 mm high and 200 mm wide.

Wheels with this width can only be used on heavy walk-behind tractors, and in addition to the Zubr walk-behind tractor JRQ78 and 79, they will also fit the Centaur 1070D, Aurora 101 and Aurora 81, Zirka LX1080D and Zirka 1090 walk-behind tractors. The distance between the hooks in the factory version is 14.5 cm. The bushing of these wheels - 60 mm in diameter. They are attached to the walk-behind tractor using an additional hub.

Description and dimensions of lugs for walk-behind tractors

As we understand, the size of the lugs very much depends on the weight of the walk-behind tractor on which they are installed.

Although heavy walk-behind tractors are the most suitable for working on heavy soils and, accordingly, lugs with a greater height and width are more suitable for coupling a professional unit with virgin soil or heavily neglected lands. Also, for high complexity of work, weights are attached to the wheels.

The dimensions of the lugs vary from 310 mm to 700 mm in height, width - from 100 to 200 mm. So, for the Salut walk-behind tractor you can buy lugs of 500x100 mm, as well as 500x200 mm.

The latter will be functional in combination with a plow. You can buy the same sizes with a sand-filled weight so that the mounted plow plows the soil deeper. Although, if you have 500x200 lugs, you can make the weighting material yourself. Wheels with lugs measuring 700x130 mm are placed on a walk-behind tractor for working with hillers, potato diggers and flat cutters.

Making lugs for the Zubr walk-behind tractor

We have already told you what size wheels are put on a heavy Zubr walk-behind tractor. The Zubr JRQ78 and 79 walk-behind tractor will also easily fit 700x100 mm lugs. They are smaller in width and, in addition to heavy ones, can be used together with medium-heavy walk-behind tractors.

The same lugs for the Zubr walk-behind tractor are suitable for the Neva walk-behind tractor. It is precisely with better compatibility that lugs of this size are in great demand.

After all, you can only put 700x200 wheels on heavy units; they are intended more for processing virgin soil, and 700x100 wheels are suitable for average farm needs and you can easily save and attach them to another walk-behind tractor when your current one becomes outdated, even if it is weaker in power .

You can make it yourself with your own hands, or you can buy it in a store. 700x100 lugs will cost you about $70.

How to make lugs from disks for a walk-behind tractor

You can make the lugs you need from old car rims. You can also use wheel rims from an old engine block. Let's say you no longer need your unit. You bought yourself a new one - better and more functional.

But you don't have lugs. Do not throw away your old unit, but convert its wheels into lugs for a new walk-behind tractor in the same way as you would convert car wheels. The sequence of actions is given at the beginning of the article.

Why is this necessary?

At the moment, there are several types of mini-equipment for cultivating land:

• motor cultivators;
• walk-behind tractors;
• mini tractor.

At the same time, consumers often do not realize that each type of this equipment is designed to solve certain types of work. Therefore, buyers focus on price and purchase cultivators, as they consider them a cheap version of walk-behind tractors. Epiphany comes immediately after the owner of the cultivator realizes that his cultivator is only capable of loosening the soil with cutters, and it is impossible to use attachments while working on this unit for the following reasons:

• weak power;
• unreliable gearbox (reduction gear);
• no wheels.

However, the money for the purchase has already been spent. Therefore, the owner of a cultivator is faced with the question of whether it is possible to convert it into a walk-behind tractor.

ICE-based technology

Homemade products with installed internal combustion engines have greater power and functionality compared to their electric counterparts.
This allows you to significantly expand the scope of their use. Attachments in the form of a plow, flat cutter, cultivator, rake are easily mounted on the frame bracket. The unit can also be easily transformed into a roller skating rink or a home mini-tractor. Having asked the question “how to make a homemade walk-behind tractor,” first of all you need to understand its structure. To assemble a homemade motor cultivator with your own hands, you first need an engine, transmission and reduction gearbox.

For assembly work, you will need a standard set of tools: a set of wrenches, a drill, an angle grinder, a welding machine, and when assembling more complex and load-lifting machines, also turning and milling of some components.

Wheels for hilling on a walk-behind tractor

When setting a task such as hilling for a walk-behind tractor, a special type of wheels will be required. Hilling wheels, also popularly known as hillers, are used for both planting and hilling various crops, such as potatoes, carrots, beets, rutabaga, radishes, turnips. The most commonly used are four types of hilling wheel models:

• Lister - you can easily make them with your own hands. They have a number of varieties, including a non-adjustable type, consisting of two plates arranged mirror-like and diverging at an angle with a common stiffener. And also an adjustable type, with which it is possible to change both the width and depth of tillage;
• disk - the principle of their operation is based on the fact that the disks capture the soil and then fill the plant growth areas with it;
• propeller - are a type of propeller. They are valuable because, due to the serrated shape of the blades, they are aggressive towards weeds and are excellent at combing them out of the soil, making them ideal for weeding. It is also possible to make this type of hiller with your own hands, individually for the strictly assigned tasks;

Propeller type hiller

with variable working width - its use allows you to perfectly adjust the row spacing, which makes this type of hiller simply irreplaceable when processing beds.

Walk-behind tractor at work

As you can see, there are a sufficient number of options for walk-behind tractors, designed for a wide variety of tasks, types of work and types of soil. Some of them can be bought, some can be installed from other cars and motorcycles, and some can be done with your own hands. To everyone who chooses and selects the wheels they need for a walk-behind tractor - good choice, easy work and high yield!

How it all started - a walk-behind tractor from Minsk

The work began with the modification of the motorcycle frame and its adaptation to our requirements. Unnecessary running boards and other parts were removed. Only part of the driver's footrest on the right side remained; later it served as a support for the exhaust pipe of the walk-behind tractor. The seat clamp was also removed, but only after the steering arms were welded to the frame from a 1.25 section pipe, manufactured as one element (curved) together with a spacer, arms of a shape suitable for controlling the equipment.

Particularly careful attention was paid to the manufacture of the bushing intended for the drive shaft of the wheels and its installation on the frame of the future walk-behind tractor. If there was such a possibility, then it would be much better to manufacture it on a lathe from round bars or thick-walled pipes, but since there was no equipment of this type, the bushing was made from sections of pipes without a seam of suitable sizes by welding. Also, by the way, a bushing was made for the intermediate shaft.

Parts of a large diameter pipe served as housings for ball bearings. The bearings were used type 80205. It would be possible to take type 60205 with a washer from various contaminants (if you use such bearings, the washer must certainly be turned outward.)

Under the lower tube of the motorcycle frame there was a place for attaching the wheel hub - an arcuate opening. To be correct, this bushing must be attached with great precision perpendicular to the diametrical plane of the existing frame. Which was done with all diligence.

All the components of the resulting walk-behind tractor can be seen in the drawing below.

Walk-behind tractor from an old motorcycle (units and components pos. 6,8,9,10,13 from the Minsk motorcycle):

The fairly simple design of the equipment makes it reliable and convenient.

Cultivating a plot of land requires enormous physical effort. The need to use special equipment is obvious. The owner of a land plot has a choice: buy or rent special equipment? An alternative option is to make a walk-behind tractor with your own hands.

An acceptable option that looks extravagant, but will help you save money and at the same time get a homemade walk-behind tractor that will make agricultural work easier.

How to choose the right low-pressure tires for a walk-behind tractor

The correct choice of wheel for a motor cultivator determines its further operation, as well as the service life of the chassis.

Experienced unit owners give their advice and recommendations.

Adviсe

When choosing tires for a motor cultivator, it is necessary and strictly:

• study the characteristics of the device, take measurements to ensure that the selected tire fits perfectly. A correctly selected tire will be the key to excellent performance of the walk-behind tractor;
• decide on the type of work that will be performed on the equipment, based on this, make a choice of wheels, and, accordingly, tires for them;
• decide on the type of soil, based on this you can already make a choice of the type of tread. In some cases, tires from Zhiguli or Oka cars may be suitable. For softer and more viscous soils, tires with a more textured tread and higher cross-country ability are suitable, for example tires from Germany for motorcycles 140 80 15.

Recommendations

It is recommended first of all to pay attention to the following parameters when choosing tires for a walk-behind tractor:

size, i.e. this is the number that appears after the name of the wheel. Tire size is usually indicated in inches. For example, a tire 6.00-12, where 6.00 is the diagonal width of the tire, and 12 is its seat diameter;

Rubber for walk-behind tractor 12

• purpose – a number of tires are intended only for walk-behind tractors, a number only for transport, and also for other purposes. This must be taken into account when choosing rubber, in accordance with the purpose of the cultivator;
• quality or compliance with standards, quality of materials. It is recommended to purchase tires from well-known manufacturers, which are guaranteed to be durable, strong and resistant to environmental conditions.

Where is it used?

Initially, this type of equipment was created as an assistant for the farmer. With a motorized cultivator you can plow the ground, transport loads, collect garbage, hay and leaves. However, the useful qualities do not end there. Based on it, you can create a snowmobile that will help those who live in the North.

This type of equipment is very convenient for fishing.

A good and properly modernized motor cultivator does not care about dirt or snow. Even in difficult areas, such equipment can accelerate to 75 km/h.

An all-terrain vehicle is especially useful in rural areas where there is no asphalt, but there are frequent showers and snowfalls. In this case, an all-terrain vehicle can become a real savior. At the same time, when the season comes, the all-terrain vehicle can be upgraded again into a regular walk-behind tractor, which will plow the land, clean the territory and perform a lot of other useful things, allowing the farmer to save time and effort.

Options for wheel design drawings for a walk-behind tractor

Factory configurations of wheels for a motor cultivator are classified according to the number of axles, as well as the principle of traction. Manufacturers produce home mini tractors, the design of which involves the movement of the unit due to:

• two wheelsets;
• paired wheel structure on one axle;
• one drive wheel;
• on three wheels.

Single-wheel mechanisms are often equipped with additional devices on the axle, which also serve as support for the structure. Analyze the model of your home cultivator to improve its functionality. Choose a durable, reliable material or a suitable base for making homemade chassis elements.

Four wheel option

Small-sized agricultural tractors on four wheels are a miniature of a similar vehicle without a cabin. The configuration of the models allows the user to move on a walk-behind tractor.

To improve the factory configuration, you can replace only the drive pair or change all the disks. Choose one of the options to improve the performance of home agricultural equipment:

• equipping factory tires with additional protectors;
• putting new tires with a textured pattern on the wheels;
• installation of wheelsets of different radii on the axles - larger ones under the mechanisms, smaller ones under the driven part;
• installation of car wheels.

Important!

Designing wheels is an important stage in improving a walk-behind tractor, at which it is necessary to make accurate calculations of the optimal dimensions, arrangement of elements, and locations for drilling fasteners.

Four-wheeled walk-behind tractors are classified as heavy-duty models. A number of machines are configured with non-removable wheel elements. Before modifying a mini tractor, make a drawing according to which you plan to improve.

On one wheel set

Two-wheeled motor cultivators are equipped with one axle with a pair of wheel elements. The platform with the installed engine is controlled by the user using handles. Installing a passable wheelset will solve the problem with:

• slippage;
• slippage;
• filling the poorly expressed tread pattern with earth;
• poor handling;
• insufficient plowing depth, etc.

Draw a sketch of one element on paper yourself or make a drawing in a computer program. In the figure, indicate the diameter of the disk, the location of the holes for the axle, fastenings, and their dimensions.

With one driving wheel

Single-wheeled cultivators are devices in the form of a wheel element in a tire with a pronounced tread. The speed of work and efficiency when performing farming work depend on the permeability of the disk.

When preparing a drawing for replacing the drive wheel, use the following recommendations:

• select the diameter of the wheel element similar to the factory configuration;
• choose materials with greater weight when making a wheel yourself;
• replace the rubber with a more textured and wider one.

The walk-behind tractor on one wheel is controlled by manual manipulation. It will be easier for you to drive a design with a wide wheel and a powerful tread.

Three-wheeled models

On small-sized agricultural tractors for cultivating a summer cottage with three wheels, the front element performs the function of following a given trajectory. The rear wheel pair is supplied with torque from the unit engine. In most models, the chassis located at the front is made of a larger diameter.

To design the replacement of wheels on a single-axle small-sized tractor, use the following recommendations:

• calculate the same radius of the wheel and tire that is provided in the factory configuration. Installing a smaller or larger wheel in diameter will make the mechanisms work incorrectly;
• make identical wheel elements. Replacing wheels with different tread patterns or different weights will complicate the use of the mini tractor.

When making a drawing with your own hands, take as a basis the model designed by the manufacturer. Consider the full radius of the elements. You can design a disc with a smaller diameter, but install thick tires on it, and vice versa.

Metal with lugs

Such wheels have a certain weight, so they have additional power. Steel teeth “push” the unit forward and do not allow it to load even in the most clay soil.

Particular attention must be paid to the support front wheel, which bears a considerable load. It helps to optimize land work and increase the endurance of the walk-behind tractor itself.

Trailer wheels have a similar classification and are selected according to the same principles. Do not forget that in the process of transporting heavy loads, low pressure is applied to the wheels of the walk-behind tractor itself, and high pressure is applied to the wheels of the cart (trailer). Therefore, in this case you need to choose the most durable options.

How to make your own weights for the cultivator chassis

Weights play a big role in the functionality of a motor cultivator. Where work is carried out in virgin soil, on slopes, in damp or viscous soil, the running gear of the unit may slip because it lacks its own weight.

Weighting materials have been created to solve this problem. You can make them yourself. For this you will need:

• disc weights (from 5 kg);
• pancakes from a sports bar (10 kg each);
• clutch baskets for cars;
• hexagonal profile;
• Bulgarian;
• welding machine;
• electric drill.

Homemade weights
The process occurs in the following sequence. Holes are drilled in two small sections from the profile, plate discs from the bar are attached to them, clutch baskets are welded to the plates and then weights are attached. The weighting material is ready, it can be attached to the cultivator.

Note! Installing weights solves a number of problems at once and significantly simplifies many tasks for the owner of garden motorcycles.

What third-party wheels are suitable for the Neva walk-behind tractor?

Wheels from Muscovites and Lada are best suited for installation on the Neva walk-behind tractor. There is no need to change anything in them, since their diameter is ideal for installation on a walk-behind tractor. They only need to be slightly modernized by welding.

Zhiguli wheels on a Neva walk-behind tractor

Factory options will cost much more.

The main task when modernizing Zhiguli wheels is to make them heavier, since in the factory configuration they are very light.

Listed below are the main stages of manufacturing wheels for a walk-behind tractor from car tires:

• An axle shaft is installed inside the wheels;
• To make it easier to change wheels, square plates are installed on the axle and holes are made in them. And then the wheels from Zhiguei are attached to these plates;
• A cap is placed on the outside to protect against external factors;
• The tubes should be removed, and only the tires should be left (to improve the quality of traction, winter tires should be used).

Important TOP 2 modifications of trucks based on the ZIL-MMZ-4502 dump truck

Using tires from other cars is problematic because they have a larger diameter or width, so they need to be additionally adjusted using an axle extension or some other method, and this is not always possible for everyone.

To improve the lug-holding properties, some people additionally cover the wheels with a chain. When driving, the chain digs into the ground and provides additional traction. The effect of it is especially noticeable when driving after rain or snow.

The video demonstrates how to install Zhiguli wheels on a Neva walk-behind tractor:

Instructions for tire pressure of complete wheels for agricultural machinery

1. Complete wheels for tractors, combines and other self-propelled agricultural machinery are shipped to the client or to the branch warehouse with tire pressure as indicated on the tire bead. This applies to all wheels, the tires for which are mounted on disc wheels with mounting holes for installation on the hubs of agricultural machines.

2. This pressure is nominal and in this form the complete wheel is sent to the client - transport pressure.

3. Complete wheels for tractors, combines and other self-propelled agricultural machinery used as dual or additional - discless wheels, consisting of a rim and spacer, are shipped to the client or to the branch warehouse with a tire pressure 0.7 bar less than indicated on the bead surface of the tire .

4. When installing additional wheels, the client must be informed that the air pressure in the tire of the additional wheel must ALWAYS be 0.5 (min.) - 1.0 (max.) bar less than in the main wheel. The client regulates this value (the difference in pressure) himself, depending on the task assigned to the operation of the specific equipment on which these wheels are installed.

5. It is not allowed to operate equipment with additional wheels on spacers when the set pressure in the outer tire is greater than or equal to the pressure in the tire on the inner wheel. The minimum pressure difference should be 0.5 bar downward in the outer tire.

Wheel extensions for walk-behind tractors - homemade

In order to expand the wheelbase of the walk-behind tractor and make it more stable on uneven terrain, it is best to install wheel extensions on the unit. These simple devices are quite easy to make at home, if you have certain tools and materials on hand. The algorithm for making extension cords is as follows:

1. Take two metal pipes, the diameter of which should be 1–2 mm larger than the diameter of the walk-behind tractor axis;
2. In the part where the products will be installed on the axle, it is necessary to make a thread that will allow the extension cords to be screwed onto the walk-behind tractor;
3. The other side of the pipes should be 1–2 mm smaller than the holes in the wheel rims. If necessary, the pipes must be cut down to obtain products of the required size;
4. To fix the wheels on the extensions, you need to make steel plates that will be attached to the disk with bolts.

Using all the tips listed above, you can make high-quality wheels for walk-behind tractors Agro, Neva, Krot and units of other domestic and imported brands.

How to install Zhiguli wheels

If you have old spare parts for Lada cars, then there are two options for using them. The first is the creation of lug elements based on discs. This procedure requires the following steps:

• remove and clean the disks;
• weld the plates in a certain order, which will act as lugs;
• install lugs using weights and extensions on the base.

If you use pneumatic tires from Zhiguli, then it is advisable to install winter tires on the walk-behind tractor, which are more aggressive and have greater cross-country ability. If the walk-behind tractor is used for large-area work, then it is necessary to use a paired version or lengthen the axle when installing parts from Zhiguli.

Increased speed and maneuverability

These questions are relevant for those who have to work on heavy and damp ground, on ups and downs. Even the most advanced models can slip, forcing the operator to exert additional effort to push the machine forward. Many people are not satisfied with the speed of the unit when towing equipment or transporting various loads.

There are several ways to solve these problems:

1. Increase wheel diameter. Most walk-behind tractors are equipped with wheels with a diameter of 25-30 cm. If you install 45-50 cm wheels from an old small car, the speed of the unit will double. But you should not make a racing car out of a walk-behind tractor, since this device is not highly durable and has good stability. You can accelerate to 25-30 km/h only on a flat road without sharp turns.
2. Manufacture and install weighting materials. For such factory-made devices in the store you will have to pay a large sum. It is better to make them yourself from scrap materials. Weights are placed on the wheels and on the frame. The wheel weight is made of steel wheels and a hexagonal solid profile. The welded parts are inserted into the hubs with a hexagon and secured with cotter pins in the drilled holes. Instead of iron disks, you can use reinforced concrete blanks or flat round flasks with a neck, into which sand is poured. The body of the walk-behind tractor is weighted using removable frames from the corner. Loads of various weights and configurations are already screwed to the frame.
3. Secure the tracks. This solution will allow you to turn the walk-behind tractor into a full-fledged low-speed snowmobile. It is enough to install another axle with wheels and purchase wide rubber tracks. Stoppers need to be attached inside the tracks to prevent them from jumping off the wheels. A homemade snowmobile can also be useful in the spring, when the soil is wet and the terrain is impassable for conventional equipment. As a kit for a homemade snowmobile, you can make a sled for transporting various property through the snow, going hunting, fishing, or to the nearest store after a snowfall.

There are many opportunities for radical transformation of even a small domestically produced walk-behind tractor. This equipment can be transformed into any agricultural implement and off-road vehicle.

Making a homemade walk-behind tractor from a motorcycle engine

For normalized operation of the walk-behind tractor, it is necessary to develop a kinematic multi-stage transmission scheme. It allows you to increase the additional ratio, torque and tractive effort. Also, together with the gearbox adapter, the entire circuit provides for the presence of a main gearbox. The most highly efficient engine is obtained by combining the main gear with a geared wheelset.

Thanks to a specialized mechanism, the drive chains are effectively tensioned. This element is attached to the sliders using pins made of steel angles, which, in turn, are able to move freely, stretch, and also weaken the drive chain. A pair of adjusting screws with mounting bolts numbered M10 allows you to perform the above functions.

One of the most complex structures is the main gearbox, made of 10 mm steel plates. Reinforcing disks are located at the mounting bearing location. In order to eliminate the possibility of oil leakage, special continuous welding seams are made. The rear gear wall assumes in its structure the presence of a bracket - a bracket. It is capable of fastening both entire cargo trolleys and agricultural trailers. If you attach the cart to a walk-behind tractor, you will get a real miniature tractor.

The gear cover is made of a five-millimeter steel plate. Thanks to screws number M6, it is freely attached to the body. All straight gear gears are taken from agricultural machines.

Locking the wheels of a walk-behind tractor with a motorcycle engine

An important technical solution regarding the walk-behind tractor is the correct wheel locking. It is imperative to grind the cylindrical neck located on the right half axis next to the splined end. A threaded hole is made on the other axial side. During rotation of the screw number M12, a certain displacement is performed under the action of a cylindrical spring. After the specified moment, the axle shaft moves away from the gears. This is how the wheels are locked.

Motoblock wheels are made from electric car wheels. Sixteen grooves are cut in all disks. Steel plates are welded there. Then jumpers are added, which form the rim of the arable elements.

Plow for walk-behind tractor

The control unit, which allows the plow to freely enter fertile soil, consists of several important parts:

Welded body type P;

Restrictive projections;

Installation tabs.

It is into these parts that the direct heel of the plow is inserted. Thanks to technical features, it rotates on a vertical plane, using axial and bushing hinges. The rotation angle is set by the pin number M16. The channel of the particle in question is welded to the rotary heel. (Cm. ).

A cutting knife is attached to the immediate beam. Its normalized installation is carried out using a standard clamp with a cover plate and two bolts numbered M12 with universal nuts. A V-shaped bracket with an auxiliary wheel is installed on the front of the walk-behind tractor. The main purpose of this element is ease of transportation and unhindered reverse movement.

All direct control of the created transport, that is, the walk-behind tractor, is carried out using a walk-behind mower, a handle and two rods.

Wheels for walk-behind tractor "Neva"

Motoblocks "Neva" are one of the most common and quite multifunctional types. Regardless of what work is performed on them, work on this walk-behind tractor without wheels and attachments is impossible. The choice for this model is quite extensive, given the versatility of this unit and the truly popular love for it.

"Neva"

The following types of wheels are available for the Neva walk-behind tractor:

• Pneumatic wheels, they are equipped with a tire, a tube, a cultivator wheel hub and a disk. Pneumatic wheels are installed on the gearbox shaft so that the tops of the spikes are located in the direction of movement.
• Metal, or lugs, are used to increase traction due to greater grip on the ground. There are wide, tall and narrow types of metal wheels. In addition, metal wheels with blades, spikes and other devices are used for various types of soil cultivation.

In general, the wheels installed on the Neva can be classified as follows:

• transport 4 0x8 – used for transporting goods onto walk-behind tractors, installing them on trailers, and moving walk-behind tractors on the roads. They are distinguished by a relatively small diameter and tire pressure, their width is about 4 inches;
• kits for widening the track, consisting of two stoppers and several extensions, their functionality is widening the track. It is optimal to purchase a set of extensions that allow you to install wide wheels on the walk-behind tractor;
• draft 16x6 50 8, installed as a set, used for draft work. The tires are tubeless, so they do not fail due to overinflation, have an outer diameter of about 16 inches and a working pressure of four atmospheres;
• lugs KUM-540, 680 for hilling, lugs N for plowing. Allows ideal passage on soft and difficult-to-pass soils. It is also recommended to additionally equip them with weights.

On a note. In addition, home-made lugs are installed on Neva motor-cultivators, which are made for the specific tasks and needs of the owner of this equipment. Ideally suited to the Neva, from the Zhiguli, Oka, Niva and Moskvich cars can be installed as pneumatic wheels.

The owners of the Neva themselves are enthusiastic about such alterations, since they are often dissatisfied with the driving performance of the wheels from the factory.

Types of wheels

The walk-behind tractor itself is a heavy pile of iron. To make it convenient to move it from one place to another, you need wheels. Moreover, if you choose a bad addition to the device, it will not be able to fully function and will be useless. In total, 2 types of round devices for moving are known:

The first option is equipped with deep treads for driving on dirt roads. Typically, rubber pneumatic wheels are included when purchasing a mini-tractor. The second option is metal wheels with lugs, most often used for high-quality work in fields and pastures.

It is worth noting that both options are excellent for plowing land. The only drawback may be the case when these wheels do not fit in size at the time of purchase or an attempt to change them when the old ones are already worn out, because they simply may not be sold separately.

The use of a motor cultivator is usually necessary to loosen the soil. A small unit is capable of plowing the land, planting crops, cultivating what was planted until a certain time and then collecting it, because a person buys a walk-behind tractor in order to exploit it to the maximum.

If you decide to buy a rubber version, the first thing you need to pay attention to is what exactly the device will be used for. For example, for plowing you should buy wide wheels. They are also suitable for digging up planted potatoes.

It is best to buy devices with a total diameter of more than 400 mm and a width of at least 200 mm. This will be justified, first of all, when planting potatoes or other types of vegetables.

It is very important that the exact distance between them is maintained. The optimal distance should be 70 cm. This is necessary so that there are no difficulties when moving the unit between rows.

For processing already sown crops, a narrow version of wheels is very suitable, which will not damage the planting during processing. Remember that the main task of a motor cultivator is to get rid of unnecessary weeds, and not the crop itself.

Experts recommend buying universal pneumatic tires so as not to overpay in the future.

They are perfect for all types of walk-behind tractors and cultivators.

Pros and cons of car wheels on a walk-behind tractor

To begin with, we should provide a list of the advantages and disadvantages of such a modification.

1. Reliability. Passenger tires are designed for more impressive loads than the original tires of a walk-behind tractor.
2. Durability. Tires from a passenger car, even in used condition, will last much longer.
3. Patency. Thanks to the increased ground clearance, as well as a more impressive tread pattern of car tires, the walk-behind tractor will be able to drive over obstacles more confidently.
4. Good traction due to greater tire contact with the ground.
5. Increased speed as a consequence of the increased diameter.

1. The need to dismantle the arches or redo them.
2. The controllability of the device is slightly deteriorated.

How to remake a walk-behind tractor

Many owners want to improve their walk-behind tractor to improve comfort during work. The most common modifications are the manufacture of adapters and trailers. This upgrade allows you to expand the functionality of the walk-behind tractor, because the adapter allows you not only to transport various loads, but also to use the walk-behind tractor as a vehicle.

Improving the walk-behind tractor will allow you to create a whole mini-tractor. Adapters and trailers can have their own steering, which is much more convenient than using a steering wheel from a walk-behind tractor. There are many step-by-step photo instructions and videos showing how to create a trailer. One of the most important elements of such a device is the frame, which is made of channel or pipes. Wheels can be taken from any car; the ideal option is wheels from an ATV. Bridges can be taken from VAZ 21-09, they need to be shortened. The steering column can be taken from the same car. The driver's seat will allow you to work with maximum comfort.

In addition, a mini-excavator can be made from a walk-behind tractor, the creation of which requires a hydraulic system. Such an excavator is very convenient for construction on a personal plot, because it is compact and can go where heavy equipment cannot.

How the construction works

It’s not difficult to do, you just need to have experience working with transport and mechanics. Create a base for transport. For this, it is allowed to use a frame from a used motor vehicle model IZH or URAL. Thanks to these details, the vehicle will become more maneuverable and will easily overcome any holes or bumps on the road surface.

Creating homemade equipment step by step:

1. Construction of rear bridge, wheel suspension. To connect the suspensions at the front, at the rear you need to use a car stand, a mowing rod, and a steering wheel bushing.
2. Wheels designed for a vehicle must be taken exclusively from the most powerful trucks. Tires with low pressure would be an excellent choice for the unit. With rational selection, the master can drive the vehicle in complete safety, without worrying about maneuverability.
3. Engine installation is the main stage in the entire process of assembling a machine based on a walk-behind tractor (all-terrain vehicle).

On a note!

To complete the design, it is necessary to properly secure the engine, brake, exhaust system, and clutch.

As photos in auto magazines demonstrate, an all-terrain vehicle made in a garage looks impressive and is confident. Karakat from a walk-behind tractor has differences. There are several of them. It is necessary to use a welding machine to make a frame from a metal profile or metal tubes. Drives are mounted at the front and rear. You can take differential and integer elements. The front axle and parts for the steering are allowed to be taken from the chassis of the car.

The “original” engine and gearbox can be replaced by a multi-stage gearbox for comfortable, simple control of speed modes. At the end of the assembly, ramps are mounted on the equipment. Carakat on 4 wheels with a motor needs to be tested. Before constructing an all-terrain vehicle, materials are prepared. This:

1. Frame.
2. Drive unit.
3. Skids.
4. Steering column.
5. Strong wheels (or tracks with snow hooks).
6. Power device.
7. Welding machine.
8. Keys.
