Every day, new devices are invented that are designed to facilitate the life of a person and his work. The agricultural industry is no exception. To help people in the process of harvesting and cultivating the land come mechanical machines. And the most different calibers: from a mechanical plow to a combine harvester.
In private courtyards, you can increasingly find such a device as a walk-behind tractor. With it, you can cultivate the land and harvest a ripened crop. An indispensable device in the process of its operation is a trailer for a walk-behind tractor.
This kind of trailer design can be of several types. The main ones are a specialized trailer and universal. The latter can be used in conjunction with a cultivator. The size can be different: from a small cart, which can hardly fit one person, to a small trailer that can carry a load of 800 kg.
The trailer for the walk-behind tractor is an indispensable thing in a private compound. Thanks to its design, the body can be tilted, which facilitates unloading. The farmer also has the opportunity to do work while sitting. This fact increases labor productivity, and processing the site takes less time.
Due to the fact that motoblocks with a trailer, the prices of which are quite high (in the range of 30-35 thousand rubles), are for many inaccessible devices, there are many enthusiasts who are able to independently construct this simple device.
If we consider factory models, the trailer for the Neva motor-block will be the most popular . This type of tow hitch is made only of galvanized steel. This helps to prevent corrosion, which will allow for a long time to use a trailer for walk-behind tractor.
If you do not have enough money to buy a tow hitch, information on how to build a trailer for your walk-behind tractor yourself may be useful.
To begin with, we will understand what basic details it consists of. In most cases, this is a frame, body, wheels, carrier. The last element consists of only a few details. The main one is the drawbar, which is directly connected to the rotary assembly.
The carrier must be designed in accordance with the individual characteristics of the person who will directly use the trailer. It is necessary to take into account the length of the reins, as sitting with arms outstretched will be difficult.
Frame production is a fairly responsible process. For its foundation, it is necessary to use a
steel corner, rods, round and
rectangular pipes. All elements are interconnected by a durable
weld.To make an axis, a steel rod with a diameter of at least 30 mm will be enough. The rod is attached to the body of the longitudinal joint and to the side members. In this case, corner supports and so-called scarves are used.
Thus, knowing the main points of the construction of the walk-behind tractor, you can make it yourself. And here it all depends on your imagination and skills.
