Do-it-yourself attachments for motoblocks. What can be made homemade for a walk-behind tractor? Homemade accessories for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands
It is very necessary when running a home garden. Equipped with various attachments, this technique is capable of doing almost everything from hilling plants to harvesting wood or collecting garbage. It is worth noting that walk-behind tractors can hardly be called a universal technique. The list of units that can be connected to the most expensive models is limited to several types of attachments.
However, working only with factory units is also not worth it. Almost every of the motoblock units required for household needs, you can make it yourself using drawings.
Do-it-yourself attachments for the Neva walk-behind tractor
The list of attachments for all models of walk-behind tractors is very large. First of all, it includes:
- harrows and plows;
- mowers and rakes;
- potato planters and potato diggers;
- rotary tillers and weeding machines;
- snow blowers and wood splitters;
- seeders and dumps;
- sprayers and pumps.
Such a large selection of attachments is never included in the delivery set of the Neva walk-behind tractor. It is hard to imagine how much money is needed to purchase all the additional devices needed for a subsidiary farm. And also it is necessary to remember that completely universal motoblocks are practically not produced. In other words, units suitable for a certain model are very rarely installed on another walk-behind tractor. Sometimes manufacturers provide in advance additional opportunities for improving their technology, which is done through the use of additional hinged units. These include:
- weighting agents;
- creeper;
- additional hubs;
- adapters;
- transport carts;
- persistent levers;
- couplings.
Absolutely any such equipment can be made by hand or borrowed from other motoblocks and remade. The main thing is to make sure they are compatible. The maximum motor power, connection method, dimensions and weight, drawings, maximum loads and other indicators should be taken into account when developing equipment. Otherwise, you can lose money and work spent.
A special home-made adapter can make a small tractor out of a Neva walk-behind tractor and automate household management the most.
Its elements are:
- metal frame;
- transverse bar;
- coupling;
- axle, wheels and wheel stands;
- braces;
- control units;
- truck;
- comfortable seat.
A typical trailer frame is made of any steel tube up to 2 meters long. At one end, a hitch is attached to it by welding. This is the knot with which the entire structure is attached to the towbar of the walk-behind tractor. On the other side, a transverse rod is welded, the size of which should be selected based on the width of the vehicle's wheelbase. Further, braces and wheel stands are attached to the bar, which are necessary to ensure frame rigidity and shock absorption when driving around the garden. The wheels should be removed from the vehicle trailer or garden cart.
Usually, the adapter and the hinged units of the walk-behind tractor are connected using a single hitch. All functional units are controlled by a special multi-knee lever. When switching them, you can adjust the change in the position of the supplied attachment. And you can also use an additional lever to adjust the applied force. At the end, a metal base must be attached to the transverse bar, on which the driver's seat will be located.
With a long adapter drawbar length, the most powerful walk-behind tractor is required. The power of the motor will also affect the size of the wheels and the size of the pipe from which the base frame will be later assembled.
DIY assembly of a disc hiller for a Neva walk-behind tractor
The best when used on garden plot is considered a self-made disc-type hiller. When working with him, you must apply a minimum amount of physical labor. By reducing the speed of movement, you can increase its maximum power, which has a good effect on the results of work. Such a disc design of the hiller compares favorably with its versatility. With such a device, you can do chores after planting various plants and with their intensive growth.
The disc hiller includes:
- racks;
- metal frame;
- disks;
- special talers.
Special talpers necessary to adjust the angle of rotation of the discs. The depth of the discs and the effort that is needed to complete the task directly depends on this angle. To make it easier for a person, disc hiller Equipped with multiple plain bearings to ensure product convenience and reliability.
The discs must be made of high quality metal with a thickness of 2 millimeters. The outer edges should be bent, and a special hole for the adapters should be made in the center. They are fixed on the hiller frame. In the case when it is not possible to make discs with your own hands, then you need to take them from an old seeder or other similar equipment.
The hiller is able to have a variable or fixed surface coverage. With a variable it is possible to adjust the distance between the discs simply by moving the rack. Attachment units are assembled by welding or bolting.
DIY potato digger assembly for Neva walk-behind tractor
This type of hinged unit for a walk-behind tractor helps a lot when harvesting potatoes and other types of plants.
The potato digger consists of the following elements:
- ploughshare;
- metal welded frame;
- cleaning drum;
- reduction unit.
A ploughshare is a moving part of such equipment, which is made of metal rods and several slightly sharpened steel plates. Very sharp ends and edges on the entire share structure must be dulled in such a way as to avoid cutting the plant tubers during harvesting.
To make a sturdy frame, you need a metal corner, a piece of channel and shaped tube... The dimensions, as well as the mass of the welded frame, which depends on the mass of the materials used and the specific design features, must correspond to the dimensions and maximum power of the walk-behind tractor.
The reduction mechanism is the most important part of the potato digger. To make it, you need two cylinders of metal, which serve as glasses for all connecting nodes. This design ensures mutual operation of the driven and driving shafts. Then from a steel pipe you need make hubsto which the transmission sprockets are attached. These elements are tightly fitted onto the bushings with the help of special parallel keys.
The most difficult part of the potato digger is cleaning drum, the design of which includes several roller chains that fit on specialized rods. Such a unit is also called a squirrel wheel, which is mounted on two fixed axles, which makes it mobile when moving. In other words, with the help of the force of the motor shaft, the plowshare of the potato digger, which is fixed on the moving casing, will be able to change the angle of inclination and perform digging actions when the apparatus moves.
The angle of inclination of the working mechanism and the depth of digging are changed with a slider. Such a slider is made of fluoroplastic, and its technical parameters must correspond to the characteristics of the walk-behind tractor. These are, first of all, the speed of movement, the maximum power of the motor and other parameters. Additionally, it is necessary to take into account the properties of the soil.
Do-it-yourself snow blower assembly for Neva walk-behind tractor
Not every person is able to acquire for himself factory snow blower... It is not always advisable to buy it for several months of use. Manually cleaning the entire surrounding area is also quite difficult. Can be made completely efficient snow blower for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands.
The easiest option is a snow plow. It consists of several main units, which are the blade and the adapter. The latter consists of several metal rods and brackets. With the help of rods, the blade is attached to the product frame, and the brackets make it possible to adjust its position in different planes.
Adjustment can be performed as in manual modeand with levers or traction unit. Such a system is based on a rotary mechanism, which can be removed from various transport equipment or made independently. For this, it is worth using, as a basis, the mechanisms of the front wheels of the car.
In order to collect dozer blade it is necessary to make a frame made of metal, sheathed with a tin sheet. The dimensions of the snow blower can be selected according to technical parameters apparatus and features of the cleaned area. In the case when the paths in the yard about 75 centimeters wide, then it is worth making a 50 cm blade. With such a blade, you can quite easily maneuver when clearing snow.
A special knife is attached to the lower edge of the blade, which is at an angle to the drive axis of the frame, using a secure connection. When the angle of the blade is large, the blade easily cuts off dense layers of snow. Small angle helps to move snow without much power apparatus.
DIY assembly of universal hinged mechanisms for the Neva walk-behind tractor
Quite a few types of homemade attachments for walk-behind tractors have a similar design and principle of operation. That is why when assembling do-it-yourself hinge on the walk-behind tractor, it is worth taking care of the versatility. For example, a potato planter can be converted into a potato digger, and a snow removal machine into a small bulldozer. By slightly changing the design, one mechanism can be used for different works on personal plot... This will help save physical strength, money and storage space.
The motoblock is indispensable in the household and is equipped with various attachments: the machine can huddle potatoes, remove snow or store firewood for the winter. At the same time, the list of units that are connected to the most expensive models of the walk-behind tractor is limited to 2-3 types of attachments.
In this article, you will learn how to make attachments for a walk-behind tractor with my own hands and how to use it.
Did you know? The walk-behind tractor is a small-sized tractor, but at the same time it has the same parts as the tractor.
How to make a potato planter
Planting potatoes in several large vegetable gardens takes a lot of time and effort. Planting can be simplified by using a potato planter, which you can do with your own hands, and then attach to the walk-behind tractor.
It would be best to use a walk-behind tractor with low power. The potato planter itself will lay the planting furrow, throw potatoes into the holes and cover them with soil.
The following parts are required to assemble this device:
- asterisks (there should be 32 teeth on the gear: both on the leading and on the driven)
- channel of the eighth size.
There is also another scheme, but it is more complex in design and more interesting in terms of assembly. The main task of the device is to plant potatoes at the same distance and at the same depth.
This homemade motoblock equipment is used on pre-treated soil. In this case, the potatoes are planted evenly, and the result will be reflected in the potato yield.
This unit is used as in a small garden,so and on a large field.
Important! The potato planter is suitable not only for potatoes, but also for other vegetables.
To create such equipment, drawings on paper are required. A frame is taken for the base, and all the nodes are attached to it. The frame is welded from channels and steel strips.
The arch is welded to the front of the side members and the center link fork is welded. Fasteners are used for the lower link. The plates are attached as support to the side of the frame.
Steel strips reinforce the frame. For the bunker, you will need plywood 1.5 cm thick. Parts are cut out of it, which are fastened with corners. After that, the bunker is painted and covered with rubber from the inside. This prevents damage to the potatoes during planting.
The resulting frame is fastened to the ripper and the wheel axle. When the work is done, you need to weld the pins. The wheel axle is fastened with steel clips.
Steel sheets are used for the wheels. The shape of the wheels should be cylindrical to reduce soil crushing. Also, the wheels should have two hubs, and on them one bearing. Studs are mounted on them so that the bearings do not get dirty.
In order not to engage in the manufacture of wheels, you can buy wheels from another agricultural machine. Use a square bar for the ripper holder. From sheet steel, clips are welded to the ends of the bar, and the racks of the cultivator paws are mounted inside.
Steel or cast iron pipe will be applied as a potato planter seeder. Its thickness must be at least 10 cm in diameter. At the bottom of the pipe, a device is welded that will make furrows.
After adjusting the furrow cutter, pull the ladders down firmly.
Such a device is heavy, so before installing the equipment, a counterweight must be installed on the walk-behind tractor. This will help the machine not to roll over from the planter.
The potato planter must be operated with four hands. One person sits down at the walk-behind tractor, the other at the potato planter. Potatoes are poured into the bunker. The tiller must move at a speed of 1 km / h so that there is an optimal distance between the bushes of the planted potatoes.
You will not need to fill up the planted potatoes yourself.The created backing discs will do this for you.
After planting potatoes, traces remain on the field. They can be removed using the paws, they are installed on the cultivator.
Did you know? The first prototypes of the walk-behind tractor were created in the 20th century.
A potato planter looks like this:
DIY potato digger
Another option for homemade DIY for a walk-behind tractor is a potato digger.
The potato digger makes the process of harvesting potatoes easier.
To create this technique, you will need a welded frame, a share, a drafting unit, and a cleaner drum.
A ploughshare is a movable part of a potato digger, which is created using steel rods and several pointed steel plates. The sharp ends of the share structure should be blunt to prevent damage to the potato tubers. For a welded frame, you need an angle made of metal, the size of which should be 60 by 40 mm, as well as a profiled pipe and a section of channel No. 8. The dimensions must correspond to the dimensions of the walk-behind tractor.
The editorial unit is the main part of the potato digger.To create this unit, two metal cylinders are required. They act as cups for connecting sleeves. This ensures the interaction of the driving and driven shafts. Hubs are made of a metal pipe with a diameter of 25 mm, gear sprockets are welded to them. Bushings are connected to the sprockets using dowels.
The cleaning drum is a complex part of the potato digger. The structure of the equipment consists of a pair of 94-link roller chains. They are put on rods, and this part is attached to two axles, which are then fixed. This will keep the equipment moving during rotation. By the force of the motor shaft, the plowshare of the potato digger, which is attached to the movable casing, changes the angle of inclination during the movement of the walk-behind tractor.
The tilt angle is adjusted with a slider. You can create it from fluoroplastic. The parameters are selected in accordance with the characteristics of the main unit.
Did you know? One of the first motoblocks was issued to the Swedish citizen Konrad von Meyerburg in 1912 under the Siemens Bodenfräse brand.
The potato digger looks like this:
How to make additional cutters and a plow yourself
Some of the types of attachments for walk-behind tractors are cutters and a plow, you can create them with your own hands. The cutter allows you to process seams after plowing wetlands. The plow is used for plowing the land. The cutters are used on soft and constantly cultivated soil. The plow is used on virgin soil.
The cutters are safe to use due to their saber shape. When the walk-behind tractor runs over a root or stone, the cutters lift the equipment like a car wheel. If the cutters are straight, they cling to the obstacle, which can cause the walk-behind tractor to tip over.
The knives are attached with plates to the base of the cutter. They are welded to the shafts at different angles. This helps the cutters to enter the ground smoothly. Carbon steel is used for knives. To create other parts, steel grades St-25, St-20 are used. They are easy to weld.
You can also make crow's feet tillers out of steel. They are used when working with solid ground.Install them on any walk-behind tractor.
"Crow's feet" are used for plowing the land for potatoes.
Axle diameter for four-row milling cutters for a walk-behind tractor is 30 mm.
Making a reversible plow
Before you start creating a plow with your own hands, you should consult a specialist, since difficulties may arise during the manufacturing process.
The simplest and most suitable for beginners construction of a single-body plow. The top of the body has a curved feather, which makes it possible to process the overturned layer of earth. This machine is suitable for working hard soil.
Important! Follow all instructions when building your plow. The slightest inaccuracy will lead to negative manifestations while working with him.
To create a plow, you need steel 3-5 mm thick. First, we make a ploughshare, which must be removable. The cutting part is beaten off on the anvil and sharpened. An oval is made next. A pipe with a diameter of 0.5 m is used for the workpiece. The walls should be 5 mm thick. Gas welding cut out a workpiece according to a template, which is grinded with a grinder. Having made two parts of steel with a thickness of 2-3 mm, the plow body is made, after which the whole device is assembled.
This plow is designed for crumbling and turning the topsoil. The plow is connected to the walk-behind tractor using a hitch. The machine must be adjusted so that the side edge of the field board during operation is along the furrow wall. The share must be horizontal. The device of the reversible plow allows you to roll off the soil layer in one direction.

DIY trailer for walk-behind tractor
The walk-behind tractor facilitates work when plowing the soil, planting and harvesting crops, and can also carry more than 400 kg of cargo.
Any agricultural worker often needs to transport crops, remove garbage, construction Materials. Motoblocks attachments to it, such as a trailer, will help with this.
We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the instructions for creating a trailer with your own hands.
The best place to start is to draw a detailed drawing. The equipment should be drawn from several sides, each detail should be marked with a size or length.
Important! A separate plan is required for the knot or hitch.
Now with this diagram, we can visualize the scale of work and make a list of materials and tools for creating a trailer.
Highlights:
1. What are the main nodes that will connect the trailer (bolting or welding);
2. How will the movements of the turning parts (bearing, joint, axle) be realized;
3. The need for a tipper;
4. Do I need parking stands.
The dimensions of the carriage for the walk-behind tractor depend on the carrying capacity.Standard dimensions of the body are as follows: length - 1.5 m, width - 1.15 cm, height - 28 cm. Such a cart can withstand 2.5 centners.
Main trailer parts:
- welded frame with coupling device,
- driver's seat,
- frame,
- body,
- one or two axles with wheels.
Important! An old wheelbase can also be used as an axle.
The container for the body is made of iron sheets or boards. It is best to reinforce the corners with metal corners. The upper edges are reinforced with a channel or stainless steel strips. The body is attached to the frame using three wooden beams on the bolts screwed to it.
Since the trolley will be mounted on a standard bracket, it is necessary to prepare the required console, for example, a tiller.The lower part of the console is the axis. A pivot assembly is attached around it with two bearings. To avoid structural failure, the gap between the bearings is lubricated. The drawbar is driven into the hollow longitudinal hinge and secured with a locking ring.
After that, we fix the driver's seat and install the wheels. You can also make a footrest for convenience.
Making a disc hiller for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands
The disc hiller is the second most important after the plow and winch. He cuts furrows for planting and backfills them with planting material after planting. For the manufacture of this unit, you need to select the type of wings. The discs should be made of 2mm steel sheets. They should have bent lower edges.
Important! The discs must be symmetrical. In the case of asymmetric discs, the structure will deviate to the side and make work difficult.
To arrange the structure, you can use plowshares.They can be removed from a seeder that has served its life.
Elements can be connected by bolts or welding. The discs are connected using adjustable adapters. The main parts of the tool are: T-shaped leader, screw lanyards and stands.Lanyards are adjusted along the vertical axis of rotation of the discs. Attach to the walk-behind tractor using a beam with wings.
When manufacturing and assembling the unit, it is important to calculate the size ratio and the fastening design.There are two options for creating a disc hiller: with a fixed or variable wing width.
To facilitate work with the unit, it is important to provide for the arrangement of sleeve bearings. In the process of assembling the structure for attaching the unit to the walk-behind tractor, a hitch bracket without a beam is used, that is, a hiller's leash is attached to the bracket with bolts. The stopper is inserted into the inside of the square tube and then pressed against the surface from the outside. The disc hiller is ready.
Did you know? In the 1920s-1930s, the first walk-behind tractors appeared in other developed countries such as Switzerland, England and America, but the peak of popularity came in the post-war period.
How to make a shovel for snow, tuning a walk-behind tractor in winter
In winter, removing snow with an ordinary shovel takes a lot of time and effort, in this case you can use the motor block engine.
Roofing iron is used to create a snow shovel auger body. Plywood 10 mm thick is used to create the sidewalls. The frame is welded from a metal corner. A pipe 40 mm thick is used to make a handle, and a screw shaft is made from a 20 mm thick pipe. The cut-through is used to fasten the metal plate. The blade parameters are 120 x 270 mm. The shovel is designed to throw snow when the shaft rotates.
In this design, the snow moves to the blade with a two-thread auger. It is made from a 10 mm thick conveyor belt. Four rings can be cut from one and a half meter tape. This can be done with a jigsaw. The diameter of the rings should be 28 cm.
Metal corners are welded to the pipe perpendicular to the plates. To enter the shaft into closed bearings, you need to make a couple of cuts at the ends and tap them. After that, the shaft diameter decreases. For an asterisk key, a groove is made on one side of this shaft.
Important! The bearings must be sealed because snow is not allowed in them.
The structure must be put on skis. They can be made from wooden blocks and plastic pads can be attached to them. This will provide better glide on the snow.
The swivel gutter is made of a plastic sewer pipe at least 160 mm in diameter. It should be fixed on a pipe with a smaller diameter. It attaches to the auger body. A piece of sewer pipe is attached to the gutter, it will direct the discharge of snow.
The diameter of the swivel chute must be larger than the auger blade... This does not delay the advance of the snow mass.

You can learn how to make homemade products for a walk-behind tractor (cutter, trailer, rake) by watching videos posted by Yuri Serbin.
Agricultural mini machinery
Experts refer to homemade products for a walk-behind tractor:
- trolley-trailer - for the carriage of goods;
- milling cutter - for mixing the soil and breaking up hard clods;
- rake - attachments to walk-behind tractors;
- hiller - forms smooth and high ridges in the beds with root crops;
- blade - designed to remove snow and sand, creating optimal conditions for subsequent tillage.
Before you make homemade accessories for a walk-behind tractor, you need to prepare drawings.
- To make a rake with a wide grip, use water pipes, bushings, a rod, a tape measure. A sleeve is put on the rod. Then the surface of the rod is tapped and rotated. To make a do-it-yourself rake for a walk-behind tractor, it is recommended to use a round rod. The parts of the unit are held together by electric welding. To simplify the design, home-made rotary parts on walk-behind tractors are fixed without rolling bearings. Folding rakes are available for easy transportation.
- With the help of a walk-behind tractor, you can level the ground, clean sidewalks and roads from snow. To perform such work, a special device is used - a blade. A homemade product for a walk-behind tractor is made of sheet metal (thickness 1-2 mm), inside which 4 stiffeners are welded. The last elements are made of sheet metal 3-4 mm thick. The moldboard is fixed with the rods vertically. For this, holes are made in the first structure. From below, the homemade product on the walk-behind tractor is sheathed with tin (to prevent burrowing into the soil).
- You can clear the road from snow and dirt with a shovel blade. Such motoblock homemade products are made using a grinder, a drill and a welding machine. The dump shovel is made from a 200 liter steel barrel. The barrel is cut into 3 parts - shovel segments. The two parts are welded along the contour. The thickness of the resulting blade is 3 mm.
Additional devices
Before you make a seeder for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands, the drawings are prepared, the type of construction is determined. Experts distinguish the following types of seeders:
- taking into account the number of sown rows - 1-5;
- vegetable;
- for precise seeding.
To punctuate the sowing of carrots, beets and onions, use a vegetable seeder. Seeds are supplied from support and drive wheels. Replaceable sprockets are responsible for adjusting the rotational speed of the apparatus. Motor-block homemade precision seeders are presented in the form of brush seeding devices. The seeds rotate in the hopper, pour out into the hole, which is closed with a special disc. The last element has holes of different diameters.
The disc rotates to resize the holes. A similar method changes the seeding rate of seeds. The seeder is connected to the walk-behind tractor due to the universal coupling. The seed box is made of wooden planks (15 mm thick). The walls are connected with screws and corners. At the bottom of the walls, overlays are mounted. For dropping seeds from the cells, plates are provided in the bottoms. The wheel diameter is 200 mm. Holes are made in the hubs. For the manufacture of the opener, a steel sheet 1.5 m thick is used. The box is attached to the walk-behind tractor with a bracket.
Experts advise making disc hillers from metal pot lids (diameter 50 cm). The next step is to sharpen the cover blades. For this is used grinding machine... Flat lids are pre-bent to one side. This work can be done with a hammer. The next step is to make a trolley to which the disks that move the earth will be fixed. To make it, pipes and bushings are used. Wheels are installed below.
You can complete the walk-behind tractor with a crow's feet cutter. Such motoblock homemade products, unlike conventional cultivators, are more durable.
Homemade attachments can be used for hard soil cultivation, pest prevention. The main thing is the axis of the walk-behind tractor that is suitable in diameter.
Trailers and lawn doors
To make a furrow cutter, a factory trailer plow is used. A 70 mm corner and 2 stands from the cultivator are screwed to the structure. The last elements should be opposite the wheels of the walk-behind tractor. The cultivator knives are cut with a grinder. Bolts are used to fix the plate.
To make a trailer for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands, a drill and a grinder are used. The cart is fixed with a Zhiguli cardan. The design is based on the rear Moskvichevsky bridge. The gearbox is previously dismantled from the device. A pipe is used to fix the axle shafts. The bridge is connected to the frame with pipes. The trailer body is made of 0.8 mm galvanized steel. The cart is reinforced with metal corners along the edges. So that the walk-behind tractor turns out minimum load, the wheels must be in the middle of the body.
For the manufacture of such attachments for a walk-behind tractor with their own hands, like an aerator, they use lawn shoes. The apparatus can be made with shoes. Nails are attached to the sole. Then prepare wooden planks (taking into account the size of the shoes). To do this, use an electric jigsaw.
A strap is used to secure the board to the shoe. A do-it-yourself aerator-hitch for a walk-behind tractor can be used to process a small plot of land. If the area of \u200b\u200bthe earth is large, then the apparatus is made from a pipe (length 50 cm), iron, nails.
Experts advise making such an apparatus from steel and pipes. A shaft and bearings pass through the cylinder. The pipe is filled with sand or gravel. From the outside, nails are welded to the pipe (with the tip outward). The nails are staggered.
Potato planter and lugs
Easy to make lifting mechanism do-it-yourself potato planter for a walk-behind tractor. The device consists of 2 discs and a bowl. The tubers enter the soil through the holes provided in the bowl. Then the discs bury the potatoes. For the manufacture of such a device, a frame, wheels, axle, pins, a hopper, an adjusting mechanism are used. The main element of the product is the frame. All the details of the canopy are fixed on it. The wheels are covered with a plate. Otherwise, the potatoes will fall out of the hopper at an unnecessary moment.
Soil lugs for a walk-behind tractor can be made from a welding machine and a grinder. To do this, use the old rims, corner from steel. A bearing is attached to the axle shaft. A square plate is welded in the center of the disc. Additionally, the plate is bolted to the disc. The skating rink is ready. The next step is to make the hooks. The angle is cut by a grinder into several parts. The elements are fixed with a welding machine. The resulting hooks are placed on the rim of the disc in 15 cm increments.
You can make grouser wheels from a gas cylinder. For this, a rim 5-7 cm wide is cut (diameter 30 cm). Hooks are made from the plate, which are fixed in increments of 15 cm.
An additional plate is welded in the center of each hook. An additional 60 cm is added to the end of the hooks so that the resulting equipment goes into the soil more. A plate is welded to the rim of the metal disc.
When using homemade motoblock structures, it is recommended to follow safety precautions.
If you have a land plot, then you are familiar with how difficult it is to work on digging, loosening and hilling. It takes a lot of time and effort. In order to facilitate the solution of such problems, you can purchase auxiliary special equipment, it can be a walk-behind tractor. A wide range of works can be performed using this equipment. This can be land cultivation, site cleaning, as well as transportation of crops and any other cargo.
Solution to the problem
It is impossible to remove snow, weed and huddle without attachments, it is available for sale in a wide range, among other options, an adapter should be distinguished, which is a trolley with a seat. This addition turns an ordinary walk-behind tractor into a real tractor, but it is quite expensive in stores. Therefore, you can make the adapter yourself, like some other types of attachments.
Assembly instructions for a simple adapter for a walk-behind tractor
Attachments for can very well be made by almost any home craftsman. If you want to make an adapter, then it can be a steel frame made of pipe. To do this, you need to take the one that has a rectangular section, while the length should be 1.7 m.
To one of the ends, it is necessary to weld a pipe perpendicularly, the length of which is 0.5 m. This part will become the basis for fixing the wheel stands. The height of the struts from the axle to the top point will be 0.3 m. At the next stage, the braces must be fixed to the central tube and the wheel hub. The length of the products will depend on the slope and angle.
The square frame can be of any size. In this example, the following dimensions will be considered: 0.4 x 0.4 m.If you decide to make such attachments for a walk-behind tractor with your own hands, then a channel bar must be strengthened to the rear end of the frame, the length of which will be 0.4 m. Assemble the side pipes in a single design is possible with bolts. To be able to adjust, a lever should be welded to the frame, which should have three knees, their length will be as follows: 20, 30 and 50 cm, respectively. In order to increase the applied forces, the arm should be supplemented with a 75 cm arm. The hitch assembly can be purchased or manufactured by yourself. The duration of the operation of the attachment will depend on the quality of the hitch. It is necessary to fix the seat on a metal support, which is welded to the central tube. On this we can assume that you managed to make attachments for the walk-behind tractor with your own hands. Its advantages are low cost and simple design.
If you decide to do it yourself, you should familiarize yourself closely with the instructions for making the coupling assembly. The simplest design will be a 15-centimeter pin, which is installed in the hole in the towbar of the walk-behind tractor. The disadvantage of this option is rather quick wear, because under the influence of a rotating trailer, the holes for the hitch are broken. The hitch can be lengthened to reduce the wear rate.
Drawings of attachments for the walk-behind tractor can be drawn up independently. From them you can learn that the adapter is attached to the equipment using a single hitch, which consists of two parts. The first is required to connect the equipment, while the other is an adjustable adapter between the equipment and the hoist.
To increase the number of implements used, the adapter can be supplemented with a universal double hitch. Such equipment for the Salyut walk-behind tractor is also suitable. However, in order to read the instructions, it is important to ask how the seat is installed. The seat must be secured to the backbone frame 80 cm from the front edge. You need to use bolts. After the entire system is put together, it must be checked for operability.
Making a plow
Before making this attachment, it is necessary to prepare drawings. In them, you will be able to designate the main nodes - a share and a blade. For working elements, 3 mm steel should be used, but first, experts advise working on a removable share. As the most suitable material for him there will be a disc borrowed from circular saw... In the absence of, you can use ordinary steel that has not been heat treated.
The cutting part will be the working element of the scythe, which beats off on the anvil. A mounted plow should also include a blade; you can start making it after you finish with a share. As a material for this, you can use a 50 mm pipe, the thickness of which will be 5 mm. The blank of the blade can be done using a template to begin with, at the next stage the blank can be brought on the anvil, and then on the grinder.
Plow assembly
Attached homemade equipment in the next step can be put together. To begin with, you should use the layout assembly option, which is made of thick cardboard. Parts stick together, while you need to adhere to required angles... After finishing the blade, plowshare and auxiliary parts, a 2 mm square steel sheet with a side of 500 mm can be prepared. An indent of 40 mm is made from the edges, then a ploughshare is applied and spot welding is made on both sides.
The rack guard should also be docked with the share, the joint should be in a vertical position. The guard must be positioned slightly higher than the share blades. The offset is necessary for cutting the soil. It is important to tightly dock the share with the blade, there should be no gaps. As a result, the structure should turn out to be almost cast. Between the upper edge of the shaft and the share blade, an angle must be set within the range from 6 to 8 ° C.
Making a mower
It can also be done with your own hands. It is used for lawn care, mowing grass for hay. For work, you should prepare chains from the chainsaw gearbox, as well as a couple of discs borrowed from the Knives can be made of hardened metal, 4 knives are needed for each disc. Drill holes on the discs with a diameter of 6 mm. The knives should be reinforced on the disc using shanks. The gap between the knife and the shank must be 2 mm larger than the thickness of the knife.
When a do-it-yourself mower for a walk-behind tractor is made, the axes for attaching the knives can be made of carbon strong steel, the diameter of which is 8 mm or more. The axle must be tightened to the stop with the disc so as not to impede the movement of the knives.
Conclusion
The disks should be fixed to the welded frame and tied to the drive - with additional handles on the walk-behind tractor. Gears can be borrowed from a VAZ car. The discs should rotate towards each other, this will allow the cut grass to fit into the rows. A protective cover can be fitted to the drive.
Motoblock - an assistant in soil cultivation, in transportation of goods, in harvesting. For these manipulations, it must be equipped with additional attachments. But in the store they are expensive, a complete set is more expensive than the walk-behind tractor itself. Many craftsmen design and make homemade products for a walk-behind tractor with their own hands. Articles, photos, instructions from the Internet help in this.
Possessing the simplest skills in working with a grinder, a welding machine, a drill, it is possible to assemble from scrap material and obsolete parts useful homemade products. Homemade constructionsare often made of more durable metal than purchased ones and last longer.

Homemade accessories for a walk-behind tractor
The weights necessary for the farm include:
- cultivators - plows, cutters, rippers;
- for the care of crops - hillers;
- rake;
- snow shovels;
- seeders, planting devices.
Rake for walk-behind tractor
Homemade rake for a walk-behind tractor is used when preparing hay for livestock in a small farm. They are made by hand from narrow metal pipes and twigs. To get a solid construction, parts are assembled for welding.
The homemade rake is made foldable for easy transportation.
By independently designing the rake, you can make the working width at your discretion. The roll pick-up height is adjustable. The rakes are made for collecting hay or grass cuttings on the site. In the second case, both the width of the structure and the size of the teeth can be reduced.
Homemade cutters "crow's feet" for a walk-behind tractor
They help to deeply loosen the soil, crush large clods of earth.
This device is a one-piece welded structure, so it is stronger and more durable than conventional walk-behind cultivators. The cutter efficiently processes hard soil for sowing potatoes. It can plow the land under the snow.
The quality of plowing depends on the degree of sharpening of homemade cutters. The ground becomes lush, rises by 5-10 cm if the edges of the plane cutters are sharp. They crush large and small roots, destroy harmful beetles and wireworms, and saturate the soil with oxygen.
Homemade "crow's feet" for a standard entrance mount must be made with a diameter of 52 cm, a grip - 1.25 m, the number of beams - 30 pieces. Each beam is bolted to the coil.
Homemade plow
A home-made plow for plowing is easy to make even for a person with minimal skills in working with metal. Milling cutters are used to loosen already used soil. The plow is used to cultivate virgin soil and hard packed soil. It has a greater margin of safety. The plow is expensive, not every summer resident can buy it, but you can try to make it yourself.
You will need a plate with a thickness of 4-5 mm and a pipe with a wall of the same thickness. The structure is attached to the frame. The main element of the device is a sharpened plate, it must be cut out with a grinder in the shape of a dump. The ploughshare has the shape of an elongated flat trapezoid. We fix the pipe and assemble the structure completely. She joins the walk-behind tractor through a hitch.
Reversible plow
The plow of this design is a little more complicated. A rounded feather is attached to the top of the homemade product. There is not only plowing of the land, but also the dumping of the cut layer - when processing virgin lands, this is sometimes necessary. The complex structure of a reversible plow requires its manufacture by a professional craftsman who can calculate the exact parameters of each part.
One of the varieties of such designs is Zykov's plow. To assemble with your own hands, you need a stand with which it clings to the walk-behind tractor, directly the plow body with a share, a board for an emphasis and a curved blade for turning over the layers. The plow blade is made from a pipe with a diameter of 50 cm.
Blade-shovel
A walk-behind tractor can level land plots for the construction of utility structures. He, like a bulldozer, can clean sidewalks and paths from dirt and snowdrifts. To make a homemade blade, you need to take a metal sheet 2 mm thick. For strength, thicker metal plates are vertically welded inside the blade - they will not allow the rear wall of the blade to bend. The lower part of the shovel is also needed, it is sheathed with tin so that the bottom does not get stuck in the ground or snow. The bottom of the shovel is placed at a right angle to the bottom base.
DIY homemade products for a walk-behind tractor can be made from used materials.
To make a homemade shovel, you need a metal saw, a drill, and welding machine... A 200 liter steel barrel is suitable as material. It must be cut along the height into 3 parts and the outer two of them must be welded together. The metal of the barrel is thick enough for the rig to be strong.
Potato planter
A very popular and indispensable equipment in the garden is a homemade potato planter. It has a tuber expander with a hole at the bottom and discs for burying them in the ground. The rear wheel from the inside must be closed with a plate so that the planting material does not fall under the wheel of the walk-behind tractor. The entire structure is mounted on a steel frame. Its attachment depth is adjustable.
The hopper can be made of plywood or galvanized thin sheet. The wooden box can be painted with waterproof paint. So that the tubers are not damaged, the inside of the bunker is lined with rubber.
The planting device consists of a metal tube with a diameter of 10 cm, to which the opener is attached to cut the furrow. Its height, and hence the depth of the furrow, is regulated by the vertical movement of the structure.
The furrows are closed with discs directed towards each other at an angle. They are driven by bearings. The width of the row is changed by loosening the bolts of the ladders and sliding the discs. So that there are no traces from the planter wheels on the ground, the soil can be loosened with cultivation tines welded to the frame.
The seat of the homemade sower for the walk-behind tractor is attached to the metal base frame.
Disc hiller
From scrap materials you can do it yourself convenient fixture for hilling planted in rows vegetable crops... The main elements of a homemade hinge will be two metal lids from pots or discs of the same size. Their diameter is not less than 50 cm. The edges of the covers or metal discs must be sharpened like cutters. These are the main details of the hiller. The flat lids are rounded inward with a hammer.
The discs that collect the soil in a roller around the stalks of potatoes or other crops are reinforced on a metal frame. Small wheels are welded to the bottom of it for support. It is necessary to fix the disc rods movably, so that the angle of inclination of the processing surfaces can be adjusted.
