It is possible to select a specific option, and thereby optimize the walk-behind tractor specifically for your needs. The equipment is multi-purpose, and therefore the manufacturer has provided the opportunity to select the necessary options. The ant is in demand in many developing countries, as well as in Russia.

• The Ant 1 walk-behind tractor is an excellent option for those who live in the countryside. It can transport cargo, plow and perform many jobs. The model is excellent for tillage. True, it is very difficult to cultivate virgin soil with factory cutters. I bought this walk-behind tractor for my parents, who moved to the village after retirement. It turned out to be very difficult to cultivate a garden of 20 acres by hand, so we decided to take additional equipment. I immediately bought a cart for the device so that I could transport the cargo. Ant 1 turned out to be a very simple and reliable walk-behind tractor. This is a real “workhorse”, which also consumes very little fuel (just over 1.5 liters per hour of operation).
• I have been using the Ant 1 walk-behind tractor for about 4 years. The technology is convenient and lightweight. There are no problems with transportation with it. But plowing hard soil is quite difficult. Even weights don't always help. The gearbox and clutch are made of aluminum, the design looks rather fluid, but so far it's holding up. Vibration during operation is practically not felt; in this regard, Ant 1 is very good. The walk-behind tractor has a lot of shortcomings, but no serious problems have arisen in 4 years. For its price, the model is quite good.
• Ant 1 is an excellent device that can even replace a mini tractor. This is an ideal option for plowed beds, but for deep arable land or virgin soil this model is unlikely to be suitable. The walk-behind tractor, despite its Russian name, is an American-Chinese product. They collect it in the Middle Kingdom, which is the main problem. Overall, the device is quite good and has been serving me without failure for 4 years. However, something constantly has to be tweaked and improved. The model is probably worth the money and will last a long time with normal care.
• I purchased the Ant 1 walk-behind tractor 3 years ago. The model was attractive because for a small amount it offered a reliable device with a powerful engine and simple controls. I was pleasantly surprised by the engine. It starts up once and allows you to cultivate the land quite quickly, while consuming very little gasoline. In addition to my own plot, I also work with my neighbors’ walk-behind tractor, which allows me to pay for the equipment. I would like to note one more important detail: over 3 seasons, the paint on the equipment has practically not peeled off, and there is no rust or corrosion at all. The summary is as follows: a good walk-behind tractor that will be useful to anyone.

Owner reviews

Here's what owners say on thematic forums regarding their experience with Ant walk-behind tractors:

Andrey:

I have been using my Ant for more than 3 years. I would like to note the ease of operation and lightness of this machine. This is especially beneficial during transportation. True, it really cannot cope with heavy soils; even weighting agents do not solve this disadvantage. The gearbox and clutch in an aluminum case look frail, but are still alive. It is worth noting the minimal level of vibration that comes from working on Ant walk-behind tractors. For the money it's a pretty decent walk-behind tractor.

Georgy:

I believe that the Ant walk-behind tractor can easily replace a mini tractor in the garden. With attachments, it is capable of performing a similar range of work. It is, of course, not intended for virgin soil. The strange thing is that the company is American, manufactured in China, and the name is Russian) I haven’t noticed any serious breakdowns, but I quickly fix minor ones. I have cutters, a hiller and a plow. I actively use the latter when harvesting potatoes, just set its position correctly. Consumption is about 1.5 liters per hour, although the user manual and the website say that it is 0.8.

Pros: Simplicity of design, operability, wide selection of attachments.

Cons: For this price there are simply none.

Compliance with the rules associated with the operation of the device will prevent many malfunctions due to which the walk-behind tractor will become completely unusable. Many parts of the device are interchangeable, which ensures high maintainability. To understand the principle of the walk-behind tractor, just study the operating instructions

Pay special attention to the first start-up and running-in of the equipment. During the first hours of operation, it is recommended to use the device at minimum power.

Running in for 5-8 hours will thoroughly lubricate all engine parts. The device parts will take their correct position and begin to function.

After completing the break-in procedure, the manufacturer recommends replacing the oil filled in the store. Mechanical impurities may appear in it, which will harm the walk-behind tractor. The owner of the walk-behind tractor can repair minor faults on his own. For example, if the engine does not start, it is worth checking the presence of fuel, the position of the fuel valve and the ON switch. Next, the ignition system and carburetor are inspected one by one. To check whether there is fuel in the latter, just unscrew the drain bolt a little. If the bolted connections are loose, walk-behind tractors will experience excessive vibration. You should check the correct installation of the attached parts and tighten the components. In order for the walk-behind tractor to become an indispensable assistant in work, the unit must be selected in accordance with the quality of the soil and the dimensions of the site.

Main types of walk-behind tractors

The walk-behind tractor is a universal piece of equipment. It is used for digging up soil, loosening the soil, and introducing fertilizer. Hilling or weeding is a piece of cake with the machine.

Manufactured units are classified according to the following criteria:

• by weight of the structure;
• according to the method of rotation of the cutters;
• by engine power.

To choose a good walk-behind tractor, you should familiarize yourself with the main types, their features and operating rules.

Ultra-light walk-behind tractors:

This type is incredibly popular among owners of small plots and vegetable gardens (about 20 acres) due to its light weight and compact size, allowing the unit to be transported in the trunk of a car. And even a teenager or an elderly person can handle the controls.

The technical characteristics of such models make it possible to use the walk-behind tractor on narrow furrows and row-spacings, the working width of the working part is up to 30 cm. Most ultra-light models are equipped with a two-stroke engine, the peculiarity of which is their low weight and dimensions with sufficiently high power. A mixture of gasoline and oil is used as fuel.

The cutter teeth of lightweight models have a hook-shaped appearance. These cutters cope well with weakly rooted weeds. The cut weeds turn to the surface, losing the opportunity to germinate again. The unusual shape of the teeth copes quite well with the loosening process, with the exception of heavy soils.

Light walk-behind tractors:

For small summer cottages and vegetable gardens up to 50 acres, a lightweight walk-behind tractor is ideal, the weight of which does not exceed 60 kg and the power reaches 4 liters. With. The width of the working part in different models ranges from 50 to 90 cm. Such parameters increase the productivity of the unit and expand the list of tasks performed. The exception is when processing narrow row spacing due to the size of the cutters.

Medium walk-behind tractors (semi-professional):

Weighty (up to 100 kg) and powerful (up to 7 hp) units are equipped with a gearbox. The mechanism provides 2 speeds forward and one speed backward, which is convenient for maneuvers.

Technical characteristics allow the walk-behind tractor to cope with the hardest soil. Some models have durable drive belts and reinforced gearboxes. Depending on the type of suspension, the functionality of a motorized machine is determined. With the help of such an assistant, an area is processed that is 10 times larger than that of light equipment.

Heavy walk-behind tractors (professional):

High power (up to 16 hp) and high performance characteristics allow the units to cope with the most difficult areas and huge areas. Not a single farm will refuse any helper.

We suggest studying the table of characteristics, which presents the technical data of each of the above modifications of the Valdai walk-behind tractor from Redverg:

Scope of use of the walk-behind tractor

Despite the high quality of assembly, Ant walk-behind tractors require preliminary running-in before being put into full operation.

This procedure includes several successive steps:

• removal of transport fasteners and conservation lubricant;
• checking the quality of all connections;
• filling the unit with oil and fuel, adjusting the ignition;
• starting the engine, idling for 10-15 minutes;
• transmission check;
• operation at 50% power for 8-10 hours.

The technique can be used with the following equipment:

1. Plow. A single plowshare can plow up to 10 acres of dense soil per hour. To raise virgin soil, weights should be used. They are discs weighing up to 45 kg, mounted on wheels. The problem of insufficient weight and traction with the ground can be solved with the help of lugs installed instead of wheels.

Hillers and cultivators. These devices are used to loosen the top layer of soil, shape the beds and remove weeds. This approach allows you to reduce the share of manual labor and significantly increase productivity.

Various types of mowers. Rotary mowers are used to clear the field before plowing or for making hay. The knives can cut through brush and thick stems of weeds. Trimmers are used for cultivating lawns in local areas.

Snow plows. The configuration of Ant walk-behind tractors makes it possible to use all types of snow removal equipment. Brushes are used to clean a thin layer of up to 5 cm. The blade is used to remove snow cover from paths and paths up to 100 cm wide. The rotary snow blower copes with compressed snowdrifts up to 30 cm high with a grip of up to 80 cm.

Nozzles for planting and collecting tubers. A potato planter and potato digger are used. The devices are immersed in the ground to a depth of 28 cm, selecting tubers with a working width of 30 cm.

Carts and trailers. The weight and power of the walk-behind tractor is sufficient to tow trailers weighing up to 400 kg. Carts and trailers are equipped with a seat for the operator. They can be used in conjunction with attachments when carrying out various works in the field and in the local area.

Preparation

If after removing the engine you plan to disassemble it, then it is better to drain the oil from it in advance while it is on the frame. And one more thing: since in any case we will have to crawl under the scooter and unscrew something there, look for some old sweatshirt or pea coat for bedding

Unscrew the air filter and remove it from the engine

Disconnect the power hose from the carburetor

We unscrew the two nuts securing the carburetor to the cylinder and so that it does not interfere with us, we remove it to the side

At your discretion: either remove the sprocket cover and move it to the side, or disconnect only the speedometer cable from it - it doesn’t matter

We look for the lock on the rear wheel drive chain and disconnect it. I don’t know about you, but there was no lock on the one I was testing. Some deer riveted a chain right there. I had to “Bulgarize”...

Disconnect the clutch cable. While the right moment has presented itself, if possible, remove the cable from the frame and check for suitability

Auxiliary equipment for walk-behind tractor

Among the necessary improvements to the walk-behind tractor in the form of attachments, it is recommended to make, in addition to all of the above, the following elements:

• wheels with lugs for working on loose soil;
• lift;
• mounted bucket-blade for snow removal.

For wheel designs used as movers for walk-behind tractors on arable land, wheels with rubber tires are used. Experience and ability to work with ready-made structures, for example, steel rims from car wheels, will tell you how to make wheels for a walk-behind tractor with lugs yourself.

To do this you need:

• 2 steel wheels from a car;
• corners 25x25 cm;
• electric welding;
• Bulgarian;
• tape measure and pencil.

The corner is cut into segments of 35-40 cm. The rims of the disk are marked into equal segments. It is best if there are 8 or 10 of them. Marks are made and corners are welded at the marks.

It is better to make a do-it-yourself lift for a walk-behind tractor from a piece of pipe with a diameter of 100 mm. The lift itself is made in the form of a roller on a bracket. If necessary, it changes its position and makes it possible to lift the walk-behind tractor onto a support. In its normal position, the lift shaft is located in front of the unit and is used as a support roller when overcoming ditches and ruts.

It is recommended to assemble a bucket for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands if you plan to use it as a snowblower.

The ladle can be made:

• made of sheet metal 1.5-2 mm thick;
• hard plastic with a knife at the bottom made of a metal strip;
• from plywood 8-10 mm thick or OSB board 10-12 mm.

The bucket is rigidly fixed to the walk-behind tractor frame. To make work easier, you can make a rotating device to change the angle of inclination of the cutting plane to the road surface.

You can improve your home motorcycle equipment to suit your requirements without high costs. After all, you can assemble attachments for a walk-behind tractor yourself, doing everything yourself.

Work of a walk-behind tractor with attachments - video

A walk-behind tractor is a device that will be useful both on a large plot and on a relatively small land area. With its help, you can perform ordinary agricultural work many times faster than manually - thus, even one person can easily cope where previously a group of people was needed. However, each type of work requires its own attachments, which have a limited service life and periodically require maintenance and replacement. Sometimes it is easier to make attachments for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands than to buy it in a store - it all depends on the skills of the owner of the mechanism and his needs.

For those who don’t know, we need to explain - with the help of a walk-behind tractor you can remove snow, sow potatoes, prepare the soil for planting something in it, and perform other types of work. To do this, additional modules are attached to the main mechanism, thanks to which it can perform the operations described above. Do-it-yourself attachments for a walk-behind tractor are also useful if you need several of them at once - then the cost of purchasing it in a store can really be considerable.

The Ant-1 walk-behind tractor has a modest basic configuration. However, walk-behind tractors from other manufacturers also suffer from this feature. Let's consider the common types of options that are in the highest demand among owners of this model:

• Plow
• Hiller
• Potato digger
• Potato planter
• Hitch
• Milling cutters
• Trailer
• Adapter with seat
• Water pump
• Seeder
• snow blower
• Ground hook
• Metal wheels
• Weighting agent As for the basic package, it includes only cutters and rubber wheels.

We can conclude that the capabilities of the walk-behind tractor will be unlimited and will be comparable to premium equipment if you have absolutely all the attachments available. But as practice shows, each owner has his own needs, and he will not buy all the options. Therefore, there is a choice.

Model Ant 1

The Ant 1 model is a powerful walk-behind tractor designed to perform a variety of work in gardens and farms. The device features a chain gearbox with a reinforced design, which allows you to transmit increased torque to the cutters. This feature allows you to cope with a variety of soil types.

Ant 1 is an extremely simple design and easy to operate and maintain. This walk-behind tractor is one of the most popular and is highly reliable. The powerful engine allows you to solve all kinds of problems. The unit's speed changes without jerking and with maximum smoothness. This is ensured by a specialized speed control lever located at the fingers of the right hand. Trampling of the treated soil is practically eliminated due to the ability to rotate the control handle in a horizontal plane. Protective wings ensure safe operation of the operator and protect against dirt and stones.

The basis of the walk-behind tractor is a durable frame, which gives the structure additional weight and helps when cultivating heavy soil. The reliable transmission has 3 speeds (2 forward and 1 reverse), which makes the equipment very maneuverable. The gearbox housing is made of aluminum alloy. This design is both durable and lightweight. The hitch mounted on the walk-behind tractor is suitable for almost all Russian models of attachments.

Features of the Ant 1 model:

• large wheels with a significant tread pattern, which ensures optimal traction on any surface and prevents slipping;
• powerful Loncin and Honda engines, characterized by significant reliability and efficiency;
• Several adjustments of the steering column (horizontal and vertical plane). This functionality allows you to choose the optimal position for the operator to work;
• Convenient control of engine speed thanks to the proper location of the speed control lever.

The Ant 1 walk-behind tractor is capable of coping with a variety of tasks. The advantage of the model is the ability to work with almost all Russian-made devices. Among them:

• plow;
• potato digger;
• potato planter;
• mower (various configurations);
• additional cutters;
• cargo trolley;
• hiller;
• lugs.

Before full operation, the equipment must be run in. This process is a sequence of several steps. Initially, fuels and lubricants (oil and gasoline) are poured. After this, you should check the fastenings and perform the first start of the walk-behind tractor. The machine must idle for at least 10 minutes. During this time, the engine will warm up sufficiently. For the next half hour, you need to test the gears of the walk-behind tractor. Then you can start using it. In this case, for the first 8-10 hours it is prohibited to work at maximum speed. The walk-behind tractor should be used at 2/3 of its maximum capabilities.

Advantages of the Ant walk-behind tractor

The RedVerg brand is known all over the world. There are many service centers in Russia that service Ant walk-behind tractors. Almost all additional options produced by the domestic manufacturer are suitable for this technique.

The technology of joint American and Chinese production has the following advantages:

1. Compact and light weight. The products do not take up much space in the pantry or on the balcony; they can be transported in the trunk of a car.
2. Well thought out engine and transmission design. Sufficient power allows you to cope with heavy loads, including on climbs. Acceleration occurs smoothly and without jerking.
3. Functionality of controls. The steering wheel can be adjusted in height and horizontally. All levers are located in the area of ​​the operator’s hands, which eliminates the need to stop to switch operating modes.
4. Safety. The unit has protection against jamming and overheating. The hood and fenders prevent rocks and soil from hitting the operator.
5. Strength and durability. The basis of the unit is a steel frame treated with an anti-corrosion coating. The service systems are made of thick sheet aluminum that is impact resistant. The manufacturer announces at least 5 years of operation of the walk-behind tractor.

Reviews about RedVerg ANT-3MF

Advantages: Simple, chews the ground well, quite heavy, you won’t need to hang dumbbells for deeper immersion in the soil.

The service is intuitive, but everything is glued to it: where to pour oil, where to stand, what to turn on, what to turn off. Using running-in oil, we treated a 10-acre garden plot in just over an hour, plus smoke breaks. There was enough gasoline that was filled in at the store and there was still some left. Tank 3.5 liters.

Disadvantages: Be sure to check the completeness when selling. They put identical bushings under the cutters (we had both right ones, we opened the box of another one - there were also right ones). We waited several days for a batch of 10 walk-behind tractors to arrive, only in the 3rd box out of 10 there were 2 left bushings. Replaced one right one with a left one. The gears are switched on unclearly, but everything is simple there. Either completely to the right, small forward, or completely left, full backward. But over time, of course, you will have to adjust it yourself. Oils included in the kit are poured to a minimum. Take at least 2 volumes for the motor and 1 for the gearbox at once. Check the level before use, no matter what the seller tells you, and add to the level as written in the instructions.

Comment: The main thing, of course, is to understand the essence of the soil cultivation process and correctly assemble and install the cutters. Do not confuse the gear side of the bushing with the outer side; if installed incorrectly, you will crack the gearbox. Assembly of cutters symmetrically relative to the gearbox. When working, do not force yourself and the device, do not jerk it and do not try to go deeper or deeper than what is installed on the coulter. If you adjust the handles, the coulter and correctly assemble the cutters, the walk-behind tractor (of any sufficient weight and power, including this one) will go clearly to the set depth, you will only hold it on the trajectory and help you get out of the depth if it gets too deep. Don’t rush or get stuck in place, set your calm pace of work and move forward.
