Overview of attachments for tractors

Small-scale equipment is widely used in the subsidiary farm, on farm lands and in many other branches of activity. For performance of various works minitractors in a combination with the additional equipment necessary for the solution of the corresponding tasks are most demanded. One small assistant with an arsenal of accessories can replace a fleet of specialized machines. Attachments for mini tractors on the Russian market is represented in a wide range.

Scopes of mini tractors

Tractor in combination with several factory mounted attachments can be used in several areas of activity.

1. Agriculture. Here, the tractor uses seeders, tillers, polivalki, disc harrows, mowers and other equipment, allowing to mechanize the work associated with the sowing of vegetable and cereal crops, plant care and harvesting.
2. Gardening. Sprayers, cutters, trailers, loaders and other equipment are used to take care of fruit trees and shrubs.
3. Livestock. Examples of such equipment are carts, balers.
4. Public service. Buckets are used for digging trenches for laying communications, a bulldozer blade for clearing areas of snow or debris, a device for spreading reagents on highways during the winter period.
5. Construction sphere. Here are used front lifts, carts, buckets.

Despite this versatility, mini tractors were most prevalent in the agricultural sector, and a large number of batches were developed for it.

It should be noted that for the installation of attachments most often used three-point linkage. The size of the nozzles should be chosen depending on the power of the mini-tractor.

Agricultural Attachments

For use in agriculture, horticulture and animal husbandry, modern industry produces a wide range of attachments for a mini-tractor. Depending on the types of work, factory fittings are divided into different types.

Soil preparation equipment

Loosening and mixing the soil, its oxygenation is carried out before laying the seeds. For these operations, cultivators, tillers and harrows are used. With the help of these devices for a minitractor, you can process farm fields and vegetable gardens. In the course of spring or autumn plowing plows are destroyed weeds. All these devices are 1-2 and 4-pack.

The plow is selected according to the power of the tractor. Thus, the four-body plow can only be used on units with a motor of 35 hp or more. On low-power equipment used single- and double-hulled plows.

Double plow

Clearing overgrown virgin soil under the new field will allow such front and rear hinge, such as mowers and blade-shovel. The mower mows high weeds and shrubs, with the help of a blade-shovel, beveled branches are quickly removed from the site.

Blade shovel

Landing gear

To mechanize the process of sowing grain and vegetable crops, planting fruit seedlings allows the appropriate equipment.

1. For sowing grain and seeds of legumes, vegetable crops produced 1, 2 and 3 axial cereal seeders. The devices are a combination of devices forming a furrow, a reservoir with seeds and a scattering mechanism for the seed, followed by sprinkling with earth.

2. Root crops are meant for laying. potato planters, onions and garlic planters. The device forms a deep level furrow, where seed vegetables are fed through special tubes from the reservoir with planting material, after which they are mechanically covered with earth.

3. With the help of a combination of a special mounted drill and reservoirs for seedlings, the formation of rows when laying a new garden is simplified.

Units for the care of garden beds and plants

Loosening, hilling, fertilizing, spraying, watering and other operations to take care of crops and garden plantations on large areas are also carried out using appropriate factory equipment for mini tractors. This equipment includes rake rake and hydraulic rake, weeding cultivators, mounted sprayers, mulchers, watering equipment, grass mowers chopped on lawns, mounted hoppers for fertilizer application and much more.

Harvest attachments

For harvesting of root crops with the help of a mini-tractor, conveyor, drum and vibration models of potato chops are produced. This equipment is connected to the rear hitch of a minitractor, and is used for digging not only potatoes, but also beets, carrots, radishes and other root crops. Devices dig up roots, cleaned from the soil and poured evenly on its surface.The onion and garlic pickers are similarly arranged, and the adaptations are made by the size of the cutter and the digging block. It remains only to collect the excavated fruits, for which an auto trailer or manual labor is used.

Potato harvester

Other types of equipment are available for harvesting: trailed fruit pickers or onion cutters, for example. When harvesting pet food from farmers, mounted loaders and trailers are required, which can be of standard flatbed or dumping type (1 or 2 axle).

A baler is also made in the form of a trailer, which helps to collect hay and press it into rolls or bales. Depending on this distinguish round and round balers. Ready-compressed feed is convenient to store and move if necessary.

Round baler

Depending on the volume of use, the complexity of the execution prices for factory attachments for mini tractors vary in the range of 3000 - 60,000 rubles.

Attachment equipment for construction sites and utility needs

In construction and public services through a mini tractor, severaltypes of attachments that can be mounted in the front or rear of the body. So, shovel-oval front placement can be used for cleaning garbage at a construction site, clearing snow from roads and pavements. The shovel dump and ripper of the rear-mounted type are used for leveling ground areas, raking snow and sand drifts, clearing ice-covered areas. The cost of such equipment depends on the model and complexity, prices range from 10,000 to 40,000 rubles.

For digging trenches for communications and foundations are issued mounted excavators. This equipment has a sophisticated hydraulic booster lever control system. There are different models of bucket volume and mechanics and, accordingly, prices starting from 90,000 rubles.

Highly specialized canopies for compact tractors

It is not always advisable for mini-tractor owners to purchase expensive narrow-specialized sheds to give. Many home craftsmen can make a homemade three-point hitch from handy materials. An example of homemade at their summer cottage can be called a manure spreader.The cost price of the device is cheaper, and in the event of a breakdown, an independent repair is available. They also often do their own hands with diggers and potato planters, as they are easy enough to make, and there is always a use of such attachments at the summer cottage. Another popular homemade product is the blade, used in various fields.

To buy a factory or make a hitch on a mini-tractor independently - the decision for the owner of the equipment. In any case, the manufacture should be approached carefully, having previously calculated whether the self-made design is suitable for the power of the tractor.
