It would seem that just a few years ago the walk-behind tractor was considered an unattainable luxury for ordinary citizens. However, now the situation has changed dramatically. The popularity of this agricultural machinery goes up, respectively, the price, on the contrary, down. And today we want to talk about such a variety of these machines as a multifunctional walk-behind tractor with a power take-off shaft.
Application
This tool is an excellent alternative to expensive and huge tractors, because it can be used not only by farmers, but also simply by the owners of suburban areas and garden lands. Thanks to its high technical characteristics and compact dimensions, a walk-behind tractor with a power take-off shaft significantly facilitates human labor. Therefore, if you need a powerful and reliable tool that can perform various types of work (and after all, such devices can function with various types of attachments) and effectively cope with large volumes, a VOM device is exactly what you need.
Features
The main feature of this unit is its versatility, because through interaction with mounted tools it can be used not only in the summer, but also in winter (as a snow blower) and even in autumn (as a collector of fallen leaves). Among the main tools with which the walk-behind tractor with a power take-off shaft can work, we can distinguish:
- Devices for leveling and loosening the soil.
- Lawn mower for fast and quality lawn care.
- Mower for collecting and harvesting feed.
- Snow removal device for clearing areas from snow blockages.
- Sweeping brushes to clean the area from fallen leaves.
- A trailer that allows you to transport various cargoes, including humus and building materials weighing up to 500 kilograms.
- Seeders, potato planters, scarifiers and many other types of attachments.
As you can see, due to interaction with additional tools, a walk-behind tractor with a power take-off shaft can be operated at any time of the year, moreover, in several areas of application at once.
It is also worth noting the transmission of this device, which in its design resembles a car - the motor is connected to a gear reducer and equipped with a power take-off shaft. This design of the unit makes it one of the most powerful and productive devices compared to conventional cultivators, in which the attachment is driven by a V-belt drive. That is why some farmers call the walk-behind tractor with a power take-off shaft a “uniaxial tractor”, since it really has many similarities with this type of agricultural machinery. At the same time, it is compact and can be stored in almost any garage.
How much are these walk-behind tractors?
Prices for these devices, compared with conventional 4-wheel tractors, are tens of times lower, due to which they have become so in demand on the world market. And they cost an average of 30 to 60 thousand rubles.
