Operation and Maintenance

Run-in

To extend the life of Texas motor cultivators, reduce breakdowns and unproductive downtime, first of all, you should run in the machine. At the beginning of the break-in procedure, the engine should be idled, then gradually begin to work in a gentle mode - up to 50% of the load for 10-13 hours, various types of soil cultivation are allowed.

At the break-in stage, the main components and mechanisms of the machine are broken in, so you should pay attention to their functioning: the clarity of gear shifting, the condition of the moving parts of the structure, chassis, wheels, the presence of noise. Upon completion of the break-in, change the oil and perform a technical inspection of the cultivator again.

Fuel, oil

Gasoline cultivators Texas consume unleaded gasoline AI-92, fuel consumption is quite economical - 1 l/h, with increasing load, gasoline consumption may increase. The recommended oil grade is SAE 30.

User manual

Recommendations for the use of Texas motor cultivators are similar to the operating rules of other similar units; they are set out in detail in the instructions for each cultivator; we outline the basic requirements:

  • You should thoroughly study the instructions and specific features of the model, its technical characteristics, especially methods for emergency stopping of the machine.
  • The use of the cultivator for work that is not provided for in the instructions, or exceeding the maximum loads, is prohibited.
  • It is prohibited for persons under 16 years of age to operate the cultivator, persons not familiar with the instructions, those in a sick state, or those under the influence of alcohol.
  • When working, it is necessary to maintain a safe distance of 20 m from nearby people, animals, and property.
  • A thorough inspection of the equipment should be performed before each use.
  • Perform preventive maintenance as scheduled.

Basic faults

The most common failures of the cultivator motor and problems with the gearbox. Engine problems (won't start) can occur due to a clogged air filter, muffler, carburetor contamination, and spark plug combustion.

Noise in the gearbox occurs due to lack of oil, oil leakage - in this case, the seals will need to be replaced.

Significant vibration of the cultivator can be caused by improper installation of attachments. If the cutters stop rotating, the clutch cable may not be adjusted or the fasteners may have become loose.

The key to the longevity of any equipment is its proper operation. To extend the life of your assistant and avoid breakdowns, you should follow certain rules:

  • It is necessary to make sure that the treated area is not littered with stones, metal objects, or pieces of brick.
  • Care should be taken when working near trees to avoid the cutters becoming entangled in the roots. You can’t loosen the ground after cutting it down; the knives will definitely break on the roots.
  • A proven method of prevention is to always have a small amount of gasoline in the fuel tank, this will help avoid rust and condensation.
  • In case of malfunctions of the cultivator automation, it is highly recommended not to troubleshoot the problems yourself; it is wiser to use the services of specialized centers.

Reviews

Anton:

“I have been using the Texas TX 602B cultivator for two years now. No complaints, very satisfied. I didn’t even expect that everything could work so smoothly. I changed the filter in a timely manner, and the car was back in service. The Briggs & Stratton engine is reliable.”

Valentin:

“Our Texas 534 cultivator was digging in, we saw in the video that the loads were getting caught. We tried it too, but it’s another matter, the work went as expected. Another time we tried placing three cutters on each side, and it got better. We are happy with the car, it is powerful and reliable. We do all the plowing in the spring. We transport loads in the fall during harvesting, 300 kg can be easily pulled.”

Basil:

“In our area, walk-behind tractors are more common. But, if the plot is small, 30-40 acres, then you can get by with a cultivator. The Texas 601 with the American Briggs engine has been running for two years now. 5.5 horses is enough power to easily do everything on the site without overworking too much. I have wanted such a unit for a long time, and now I don’t regret it. There were minor breakdowns, but the spare parts were inexpensive, I replaced them myself, everything was fine.”
