brief information

A significant part of the models are equipped with powerful engines and are designed for use on medium and large areas. A variety of attachments allows you to perform a wide range of agricultural work. The controls are very easy, thanks to which even women can operate the walk-behind tractor. All models feature reduced noise levels. With the latest options, one of the handles, marked in red, turns off the engine as soon as the operator releases it. This provides the necessary protection against accidents when working with such powerful equipment.

In the Zirka product line there are models with a gasoline engine, but more often the type of power plant is diesel. Most devices are equipped with Kama engines, the characteristics of which have aroused interest even among European manufacturers, who equip their much more expensive equipment with them. The engines have a long service life, so with proper technical care there should not be any problems with Zirk equipment. Repair of a walk-behind tractor may be needed sooner in case of operating errors or due to an accident. Spare parts for Zirka walk-behind tractors can always be purchased online.

To decide which model is better to go with, first of all, decide on the area on which you will have to work. The designation of devices of the latest modifications of the LX line contains 4 digits, of which the third indicates the engine power in hp. s., and the first is a class corresponding to the size of the area recommended for processing. At the same time, class 3 corresponds to a plot size of up to 50 acres, and class 2 is best chosen for an area of ​​0.2 to 1.5 hectares. The most powerful, class 1, is designed to work on areas of about three acres. A detailed technical description of any model can be found on the Internet.

Owner reviews

  • I have been using the Zirka GN 151E walk-behind tractor for several years. For plots larger than 1 hectare, this model is ideal. Special equipment copes well with any type of soil. Even on very wet soil without lugs and with a single-furrow plow the process works perfectly. I use the Zirka GN 151E to perform a variety of jobs. So, I repeatedly installed a wheel of my own assembly forward. With its help, processing small areas where it is difficult to work with the saddle becomes much easier. This wheel provides a point of support and takes the weight off your hands. The Zirka GN 151E has enough power for any job. This walk-behind tractor is one of the most productive. There were no problems with the engine or transmission. The engine with an electric starter always started immediately (even at sub-zero temperatures). In terms of fuel consumption, the walk-behind tractor cannot be called economical - sometimes consumption reached 3 l/hour. Overall, the Zirka GN 151E leaves a good impression.
  • I purchased a Zirka GT90D04 walk-behind tractor four years ago. The model is very reliable and easy to use. This type of special equipment was a first for me. I didn’t know what kind of walk-behind tractor was required for my plot (30 acres), so I decided to take a model with more power. The first hours of work made a great impression. The Zirka GT90D04 is a huge force that is completely easy to control. significant power is combined with good speed. The model is capable of accelerating up to 20 km/h. I loaded the walk-behind tractor with up to 700-800 kg of cargo, and it confidently moved it. True, when moving up the hill, the special equipment began to “rakes”, so we had to help it. It took about 3-3.5 hours to cultivate the garden in the spring, taking into account the fact that we had to go around trees and plantings. At the same time, fuel consumption was relatively moderate. Fatigue when plowing is minimal. I immediately bought a potato planter for Zirka GT90D04 so as not to have to do manual planting. The walk-behind tractor is quite maneuverable and allows all operations to be completed with minimal time. Over the 4 years of operation there were few problems with the equipment. After the second year of operation, the gearbox began to leak. After replacing the gasket the problem disappeared. The engine has always operated perfectly with low noise levels. There were some minor problems with the brakes (the brake itself came off when braking hard). Here there was only one way out - not to make sudden movements. There were no other problems with the Zirka GT90D04.
  • I have 3 years of experience with Zirka GT90G03. Many Russians do not trust Chinese technology. Partly their doubts about its quality are fair. But my practice has shown the opposite. I hesitated for a long time when choosing a walk-behind tractor. I needed a budget option, so I considered exclusively Russian and Chinese models. In the end, I settled on the Zirka GT90G03, which I don’t regret. Despite the fact that this walk-behind tractor was made in the Middle Kingdom, there were no problems with its operation. Now Chinese enterprises have probably learned how to make decent products, as evidenced by the Zirka GT90G03. After running-in, I began to actively use the equipment in rather difficult conditions (ploughing, planting, transporting cargo). She coped with all tasks perfectly. Fuel consumption was at 2 l/hour. Again, there were no complaints about the motor of the walk-behind tractor - it always started and worked quietly. At the same time, its power was enough for all the work.
  • I purchased a Zirka WC10D 3 years ago. The special equipment is a heavy-duty diesel unit with 6 forward gears and 2 reverse gears, which allows it to move in a variety of speed modes. Along with the walk-behind tractor, I purchased a harrow, a plow, a potato planter, a soil cutter and a trailer. I was pleased with the technology, although there were certain difficulties. So, standard drive belts were soon replaced with Russian ones. Again, the bearing in the fan belt tensioner broke, which had to be replaced. There were other minor problems that I fixed myself. Otherwise, I liked the unit both in terms of functionality and maintenance costs.

Walk-behind tractors "Zirka": start-up and operation

Proper introduction of a walk-behind tractor into field work is the key to less wear and tear, which means savings on repairs and spare parts.

Before starting:

  1. The walk-behind tractor is filled with fuels and lubricants;
  2. Measure the tire pressure and, if necessary, pump it up with a compressor to the mark specified in the instructions for the specific model;
  3. Move the clutch lever to the disengaged position;
  4. Open the fuel tap;
  5. The knob, which is responsible for selecting the speed mode, is moved to the “neutral” mark;
  6. The throttle valve is relaxed, and the lever itself is moved to the starting location;
  7. After this, they proceed to turn on the device.

Absolutely new, unused Zirka walk-behind tractors must be broken in. According to the manufacturer’s standards, running in these walk-behind tractors is carried out in 3 stages:

  1. Idle operation - its duration depends on the number of gears. It should work for half an hour at each forward speed, and for 15 minutes at the existing reverse speeds. For 8-speed cars, this stage should take 4.5 hours;
  2. Operation under a load reduced by a third - designed for 6 or 5 hours (for walk-behind tractors with 3 forward modes). Its peculiarity is that reverse speeds are not used;
  3. Application with half load - for 8-speed units it will take 12 hours. Run-in of the initial gears is carried out only with a rototiller, the immersion of which into the soil is determined by its density. High speeds are only tested with a trailer on roads with different types of surfaces.

After the break-in is completed, change the engine oil and begin plowing.
