Cutter for a mini tractor: choose or do it yourself

Working in the garden takes a lot of time and effort. What if you find yourself a new "handyman"? A universal mini tractor will cope with such a role, for this you just need to equip it with additional equipment.

Choosing equipment for cultivating the land today will not be much work: a hiller, a harrow, a seeder, a plow can replace any technical tool. Every time you need to prepare the soil for sowing, you will need to work it. For this purpose, a plow-nozzle is suitable; such an additional device can be selected for any technical characteristics of a mini-tractor.

Choosing a cutter for a mini tractor

But you won’t have any problems with this either, because, to the delight of consumers, manufacturers are now trying to produce the most versatile options suitable for any model of mini-tractors.

In any case, spring work in the garden will require soil cultivation. It is possible to mechanize cultivation work with the help of a rototiller, it will help saturate any soil with oxygen and renew its top layer. All this will help activate any biochemical changes, the rototiller can take part in growing plants, for example, a tractor is used to remove weeds.

Design Basics

With the advent of new technologies for tillage, the options for additional nozzles for mini-tractors are increasing.

The leader in soil tillage accessories is the blade attachment, the ideal option with many possibilities. A mini-tractor with a rototiller is ideal for tillage in greenhouses.

The soil cutter imitates manual digging with a shovel. On the shaft, which is constantly rotating, special “shovels” are installed, which, with the help of a drive, are immersed in the soil, lift it up and shift it. Most often, the width of the nozzle does not exceed 100-165 cm, and the working grip of these tools is 81-140 cm.

Additional equipment with a milling head can process virgin soil, hill up, form beds, and weed out weeds. The most important purpose of any nozzle with a cutter is loosening the soil, such a tool is a special shaft with knives of different sizes.

How to make a cutter on a mini tractor

Since the cost of the cutter is always sky-high, you can try to design a nozzle with your own hands, especially since there is plenty of material on this topic on the Internet today, you can see the photo instructions, or you can pick it up.

The device of the cutter consists of many blades, which can be made of steel sheet with a thickness of at least 12mm, because the soil is most often heterogeneous. All nodes, connections must be installed with maximum rigidity, so special parts are needed. For example, the PK-1.6 pick-up stacker can be used as a gearbox. It is better to make the design of the cutter non-separable, but whole, so you can achieve strength in the nozzle.

The optimal speed for such a cutter should not exceed 4 km per hour. And the depth of surface treatment is usually regulated by skis. Knives can be made from a KAMAZ spring, you will have to grind it on a machine. Cut knives must be installed on special connections. A homemade cutter made in this way will always run at low speed, and will not turn the soil into dust. If you shave the right material for the construction of your rotator, then the knives for the mini tractor cutter will last you a long time and will not dull.

Cultivation with a rototiller is an energy-intensive process, so such attachments are used only when it is necessary to process "heavy" soil. For example, soil that has been flooded or, on the contrary, dried up. A side effect of the work of the cutter is the spraying of the soil, therefore, on light and loose soil, the cutter is not used.

What is an active tillage cutter?

Looking through the Internet forums, we will find several statements about this.
“In cultivators where the cutters are installed in place of the wheels, the adjustment of the feed rate is carried out by the design of the cutter itself and, usually, by the coulter - such cutters can be called “with passive feed”. In units where the feed rate of the cutter is set by wheels or other active devices, such as an autonomous tractor, it can be called “with active feed”.

Note that we are not talking about the cutter, but about the feed of the cutter, that is, either the cutter itself advances or it is pulled. Then in the definition it is only necessary to say that the cutter feed is active or passive.

Or many more believe that a cutter that rotates against the movement of a tractor or walk-behind tractor is considered active, but a cutter that rotates along the tractor is considered passive.

If we turn to agricultural dictionaries, we will read something like this:
SOIL CUTTER - a machine for tilling the soil with knives or teeth fixed on the disks of a rotating shaft. In the USSR F. p. is used for the cultivation of meadow-marsh soils and row spacing in gardens, as well as row spacing of tilled crops. The working body of a milling machine is a milling drum with straight or curved knives (teeth) fixed evenly along the circumference of the discs. Diam. drum 300 - 800 mm. number of knives on one disk 4 - 8. peripheral speed of knives 4 - 13 m/s. After passing F.

n. the soil is well crushed and does not require additional. processing. Capture width F. p. 0.7 - 4.2 m. Depth of processing 6 - 20 cm. "

This suggests that the cutter is neither active nor passive, but they use such an expression as a marketing ploy. The milling cutter simply refers to active agricultural tillage implements, while the plow, harrow and hiller, for example, refer to passive tillage attachments.

And when using the phrase "active cutter", the main word fell out - feed. Therefore, many people confuse the words active or passive. Ideally, this should sound like a cutter with active feed. It is in the cutter feed system that the definition of active or passive is used.

Agricultural machinery used to perform work in the fields is also used in the household. The differences are only in the size of agricultural machinery - to work on your own personal plot, a small mini-tractor with additional attachments is enough. These devices expand the functionality of equipment and facilitate garden work. The same plowing with a cutter allows you to replace a cultivator, a harrow and a plow - it is difficult to do without it on the farm.

Why do you need a tiller

We have already said that the cutter is able to replace three devices at once. Here is a list of these devices with their functions:

    cultivator- used for tillage before sowing, it loosens the soil, provides weed control. In this case, loosening is carried out without turning the soil;

    plow- a special device for working on dense soils, it plows the soil, making it looser. Tractor plows are the most common, they are available for both large tractors and mini tractors. Plowing provides soil turnover, due to which ungerminated weed seeds sink deep into the soil, which contributes to their death. Regular processing almost completely frees the soil from weeds;

    harrow- Another device that makes the soil more uniform and soft. Harrowing makes the soil soft, it also protects it from drying out. Harrows are divided into tooth, mesh and disc.

Each device has its own advantages, despite the similarity in purpose. A do-it-yourself cutter for a mini tractor performs the same functions, but much more efficiently. Depending on the device, it provides a turnover of the soil or simply makes it looser, contributing to the uniform and deep application of fertilizers and the penetration of moisture into the deep layers of the soil.

In other words, it is a mechanized analogue of a shovel. It loosens the soil well, ensures proper application and distribution of fertilizers, stops or slows down the growth of weeds. At the same time, it allows you to get rid of large stones by lifting them to the surface - they just need to be collected and thrown away

The design of the cutter for a mini tractor

A do-it-yourself homemade cutter for a mini tractor is a solution for those who want to save money on buying additional attachments. The minitractor itself is very, very expensive. And each addition results in a large amount. It is worth buying a few additions - and a round sum will disappear from the family budget, which will affect the cost of the crop. Even taking into account the fact that the equipment will be used in the coming years, it is much cheaper to assemble it yourself. Let's see how to properly assemble a cutter on a mini tractor.

The device of the cutter for a mini tractor is quite simple - it consists of the following parts:

    main shaft- a pipe rotating on bearings with a diameter of 50 mm, on which cutting elements are located. It is set in motion from the wheels with which the rototiller is equipped;

    reducer - depending on the gear ratio, provides adjustment of the speed of rotation of the shaft with cutting elements installed on it;

    cutting elements- are represented by saber-shaped knives or elements of the "crow's feet" type. The latter are effective on difficult or coarse soils that have not been farmed for years. For homemade, you can take metal up to 2 mm thick;

    support shaft with wheels- ensures the movement of the rotator along the surface of the soil, it is also responsible for the depth of processing.

Wheels are an important element of the whole structure. With the help of a chain transmission, they transmit rotation to the main shaft, setting in motion the cutting elements of the rototiller. In some rototillers, the movement of the cutting elements is carried out from the power take-off shaft - the mill itself is connected to it. Thanks to this, the working efficiency of the structure is increased - it is able to cope with even the toughest soils. There is only one drawback - a more complex design that requires skill from the designer.

How to make a do-it-yourself tiller

The assembly of a cutter for a minitractor begins with the assembly of parts, components and tools. From the tools you will need wrenches, a welding machine, a grinder for cutting and processing metal. Assembly materials - sheet metal for the manufacture of cutting elements, a gearbox with gears for transmitting torque from the wheels to working elements, bolts and nuts, as well as electrodes for the welding machine. Add wheels and two shafts here - one for the cutters, the other for the wheels themselves

Let's see how to make a cutter for a mini tractor with your own hands. We start directly with cutters - they are metal curved knives, fixed with bolts and nuts on rectangular platforms. These pads are welded directly onto the main shaft. We are engaged in welding work, we make holes in the platforms and fasten the knives - two bolts for each knife. To prevent unauthorized unwinding, we use locknuts.

Another approach is to cut knives with a platform from a single piece of metal. The design will turn out to be more durable, but less maintainable - a broken knife will have to be welded back by electric welding. In addition, for so much complex cutting, gas welding or a plasma cutter will be required. The designs of cutters for tillage for a mini tractor may be different. But it is better to make your choice in favor of the first option - with bolts and nuts, since here you can quickly replace a broken knife.

A pipe or channel with a diameter / width of 40 mm acts as a support frame for the cutter. Two shafts are attached to them - the main one and with wheels. Fastening is carried out using bushings equipped with bearings - both shafts must rotate freely on their axis. The shafts are interconnected by means of a gear reducer.

More advanced design

There is a way to assemble a more powerful cutter, able to work on hard ground. In this case, two main shafts are required that are connected to the gearbox - which, in turn, is connected to the power take-off shaft of the minitractor. This milling cutter rotates independently of the wheels, making it capable of processing even the hardest and most compacted soil - an excellent choice for virgin areas that have never been farmed before.

How to install a cutter on a mini tractor

The milling cutter, ready for work, is mounted on regular places intended for the installation of attachments - it is necessary to think over the appropriate fasteners. Now you can go to the site for agricultural work. To protect the assembled cutter from rain, it is recommended to supplement it with a protective cover - it can be cut from galvanized steel and coated with an additional layer of paint for more effective protection. Please note that the whole structure should turn out to be quite heavy - up to 200 kg. This ensures more efficient operation of the cutter.

Today, the cultivation of the earth is noticeably simplified thanks to a wide variety of special equipment and additional parts. The tillage cutter at MTZ is one of such devices with many useful characteristics.

Functions

A tractor equipped with a cutter that combines the properties of a cultivator and a plow allows you to quickly and with minimal time spent solve all the problems associated with soil cultivation. This assistant is indispensable in areas planted with coarse-stemmed plants, as well as characterized by floating, complex soil. The functionality of the cutters is not limited to this, they provide the application of fertilizers of all kinds, level the surface, mix the soil layers, remove weeds and at the same time crush the vegetation. Devices are indispensable in the improvement of meadows and pastures, the processing of complex soil layers.

Varieties

Cutter for tillage can be of several types: field, swamp, tilled and garden. The latter is common when processing forest belts, removing weeds and loosening. Field species are necessary for the care of lands intended for planting rice and vegetable crops, which are characterized by a heavy, waterlogged structure. Swamp options are useful both in the cultivation of meadows and pastures, and drained marshy soil. The tilled units mill the soil between the rows of seedlings and cereal crops.

Blade types

The plate knife is located on a rotating shaft and is the basis for the design of the device; high quality steel is used for its manufacture. There are several types of knives suitable for different tasks and environments:

  • the most durable option is chisel-shaped, it can be used on rocky, dense and difficult areas;
  • sickle-shaped are versatile in use, the only limitation is that they cannot be operated on soil with rocky deposits;
  • standard knives are suitable for both heavy and light soil, it is important that it is distinguished by the absence of a large number of stones and clogging.

Features of work

Soil cultivation is carried out by steel protruding teeth (blades). Devices with rear and front teeth are characterized by the addition of special pegs used to adjust the degree of processing.

A do-it-yourself tillage cutter with front blades is distinguished by placing the teeth under the engine and reversing them in the direction of travel. To simplify the movement produced by the working teeth, the wheel part is located on the rear side. It should be noted that such a unit is not used in untreated soil and hard rocks.

Equipment with rear blades is equipped with a motor that drives the wheels. Such units can have two types of teeth:

  • Blades with integrated reverse rotation. This type is highly efficient in the processing of hard ground. A tiller with similar equipment is suitable for use on uncultivated soil.
  • Cogs that rotate forward with the wheels.

In some cases, it is possible to reverse the blades in both directions, thereby combining the advantages of both options.

Mini-cultivators are among the small cutters with front teeth. They combine the ability to work in a small area, light weight and maneuverability. The choice of a particular option depends on the type of soil and the total amount of work.

How to make a tillage cutter

If necessary, the device can be made by hand. The following option is the most easy to perform, while it is worth deciding on the power plant used - it can be an electric or chainsaw.

Steel pipes with walls about 0.5 mm thick are needed to make the frame. The power plant is fixed on it with clamps. The mechanism is based on a two-stage chain transmission, while the chain and sprockets from a conventional bicycle will fit into the first. The second gear is more powerful, so parts from a motorcycle can be used here.

The chain auxiliary transmission ensures the operation of the wheels. Homemade cutters for tillage look like pipes with a large diameter, on which 6 teeth are placed. On both sides there are welded axle shafts equipped with bearings. It also requires the installation of screws that provide accommodation for the axle and chain. For each chain drive, it is necessary to make casings to protect against damage and grounding for the saw.

Motoblock equipment

A drawing of a cutter for tillage is preliminarily drawn up, taking into account that it will be manufactured by the forged method, since this option is more reliable. The material for the base are stamped steel sheets. The cutting edge of the device will have a slightly defined surface. The most widespread in self-manufacturing equipment is the type of "crow's feet".

First you need to prepare a certain set of tools and materials:

  • grinder or other mechanism suitable for grinding work;
  • steel pipe (diameter should be about 45 mm).

By self-assembly, the tillage cutter will have the right features and dimensions for the existing area that needs to be worked. Used spring plates can act as rippers.

The blades in the course of work are brought to the required size and bent in one direction at a certain angle. All parts are attached to the base using a welding machine. The edge is sharpened in accordance with the direction of rotation of the device. The hitch assembly is then connected to the resulting structure and set up during a trial run.

It is worth noting that steel parts with a diameter within 50 cm should be used for assembly, in this case the depth of entry into the soil will be 25 cm.

How to extend the service life

Of particular importance is regular maintenance, which includes a list of actions to ensure high efficiency and long-term operation of the machines. The planned set of works must be carried out on time, it is also necessary for better performance, saving lubricants and gasoline.

The tillage cutter is cleaned of plant residues and dried-up pieces of soil, then the technical condition of the elements and the adjustment of the fasteners are checked. It is also necessary to inspect the drive, trailer mechanism and working bodies.

A tractor cutter is a device used to loosen and mix the soil before sowing and planting. Equipment of this type has a fairly simple design and shows high performance regardless of the type of soil. The only drawback is the high cost of some models of cutters, which does not allow every farmer who wants to purchase this device. In this regard, many summer residents prefer to make rotators for a tractor with their own hands, using the means and materials available on the farm.

An earth cutter for a tractor is an almost universal device that allows not only to effectively loosen the soil, but also to perform a number of other tasks that are no less in demand in the economy.

Among them stands out:

  • crushing large clods of earth;
  • destruction of small and large weeds;
  • burying crushed particles of cut weeds into the ground;
  • formation of beds for further planting of crops;
  • leveling of the treated area.

If necessary, the cutting elements of the cutters can be adjusted so that they do not cut the stems of weeds, but pull them out along with the root system. This will help clear the area of ​​harmful plants and improve conditions for growing crops.

Design and features of the choice of cutter

The cutter on the tractor consists of a number of important elements.

These include:

  • steel frame - equipped with fasteners of the base chassis, necessary for connection with the tractor attachment mechanism;
  • shaft with cutting bodies - this element is responsible for high-quality loosening of the soil. Depending on the modification of the cutter, its knives can be rotary or sickle-shaped;
  • working mechanism - responsible for the transfer of rotational action from the chassis to the cutter, after which the cutting elements are immersed in the ground and loosen it;
  • protective cover in the form of a fence.


An efficient cutter doesn't have to be expensive. It all depends on the suitability of the selected equipment for a particular type of soil. For plowing virgin soils, a milling cutter equipped with reliable cutting bodies made of hardened steel is best suited. The length of its cutting elements must be at least 35 cm.

In order to process plots in the country, a milling rotator for a tractor, which has the shape of an asterisk, is suitable. This design is low cost. In practice, it is able to plow the area with high quality, carefully processing the top layer of soil.

Types of cutters for soil treatment

Despite their versatility, all commercially available cutters for tractors are divided among themselves according to their purpose.

According to this factor, equipment can be of the following types:

  • cutters for continuous soil processing - these include garden, marsh and field devices used to uproot stumps and plow the soil before planting forest crops;
  • specialized cutters designed for digging and cleaning trenches;
  • inter-row cutters - these tools are used for plowing the soil between rows during the period of active growth of cultivated crops:
  • combined rototillers - these devices include milling-sowing and milling-rowing complexes.


All of the listed types of cutters show the highest productivity in certain areas of operation. Their structures are designed to withstand the highest loads in the most difficult weather conditions.

How to make a cutter for a tractor with your own hands?

Making a cutter for a tractor is not a difficult procedure if you follow the drawings and prepare everything you need for work in advance. The selected diagrams should clearly indicate the dimensions of all parts used, as well as the sequence of their installation in the overall design.


To assemble the cutter on the tractor, you will need to prepare:

  • apparatus for welding;
  • grinder;
  • electric drill and drills;
  • set of wrenches;
  • fastener kit.

The further sequence of actions is as follows:

  1. First of all, you need to make a support frame for the cutter. A channel or a metal pipe with a diameter of at least 4 cm will be embedded in its basis. The pipe must be cut into 4 parts that need to be welded to each other. When making a frame, it should be remembered that its width directly depends on the power of the tractor. If the agricultural machine is not very powerful, then it is best not to make a large-sized structure;
  2. Next, you need to install wheels, the presence of which will allow you to adjust the depth of lowering the cutting knives of the cutter into the ground;
  3. After that, it is necessary to fix the main rotating shaft on the frame. A steel pipe with a diameter of at least 5 cm can cope well with its role;
  4. To connect the cutter shafts, use the PK-1.6 gearbox provided together with the PTO in the tractor design. This assembly is required when a tractor mower and other attachments are used in the field. To fix the main shaft on the frame, bushings with support bearings are used;
  5. For the manufacture of cutting knives of the cutter, steel plates with a thickness of about 1.2 cm are best suited. The number of blades depends on the width of the shaft. If the width of the latter is 120 cm, then at least 4 knives can be installed on it;
  6. The design of each knife includes 3 cutting elements with slightly curved ends. All parts must be attached to the shaft with bolts or other reliable fasteners;
  7. After performing all the above steps, it remains only to lubricate all the rubbing parts of the structure with grease. If the cutter will be used to work with wet soil, then all its metal parts will need to be painted. The video will tell you more about making a cutter for a tractor.

A ready-made home-made cutter can effectively cope with the loosening of the hardest soils. Thanks to the use of durable metal parts in its manufacture, this device will easily withstand the loads when cultivating wet soil.

Mini-equipment is a faithful assistant in small private households. With its help, it is easy to loosen, weed, harrow the soil. Thanks to interchangeable equipment, you do not need to purchase a whole fleet of vehicles. For example, it is possible to perform the listed works in the presence of a universal hinged mechanism - a rototiller. How to build it with your own hands will be discussed in the article.

The basis of the design is an engineering unit with a drum and curved blades welded onto it. During the movement of the tractor, the knives are immersed in the ground on the cultivated area, lift it up and turn it over. In fact, this is the same thing that they do with a plow or a shovel.

A properly made do-it-yourself tiller allows you to perform the following work even in difficult conditions:

  • loosen the soil;
  • mix the soil of any density and composition;
  • destroy weeds.

With the help of a mini tractor with a rototiller, virgin soil, long-abandoned fields, areas for planting garden and horticultural crops, flower beds and lawns are cultivated. Suitable for both small and large areas.

The rotator is a separate removable mechanism, consisting of the following parts:

  • frame with support shoes (skis);
  • knives for work in the form of curved plates;
  • shaft, gearbox and casing.

The knives are attached to the shaft of the rototiller and are driven through a articulated-telescopic transmission shaft. The gearbox reduces the speed of rotation and at the same time increases the power of the knives. Support shoes or skis regulate the working depth, preventing the knives from going too deep into the ground. The casing, which is installed on the frame, protects the mechanism from dust, lumps of soil and debris.

Attention! With just one pass, the rototiller can replace the work of a plow (shovel), cultivator and harrow.

A do-it-yourself rotator can grab soil to a width of 80 to 140 cm. This is more than enough to cultivate a garden.

Advantages and types of design

Farmers and amateur gardeners note several advantages of having a rototiller on the farm:


There are 2 types of multifunctional construction designed for processing land. The main criterion for separation is the shape of the knife:

  • Tiller with saber blades.
  • Rotary cutter, referred to as "crow's feet".

The first type is considered the most common for soil work. Knives are made from high quality steel. The shape of the blades allows you to perform a variety of tasks. If a stone comes across on the way, it will be raised to the surface of the soil, and the knives will continue to work. The mechanism is quickly disassembled and assembled.

"Crow's feet" are used to eliminate weeds, plowing virgin lands. The disadvantage is the low structural strength.

Self assembly

Removable nozzles for a motor-tractor cost the consumer a tidy sum, so some gardeners are thinking about making them with their own hands. To assemble the tiller you will need:

  • Bulgarian;
  • welding machine;
  • drill;
  • fasteners (bolts, nuts).

The first is to carry out the project with an accurate calculation. Then they look for materials suitable for the rototiller and are engaged in the manufacture of individual structural elements. Next, a rotating shaft is assembled and attached to the supporting frame.

In detail, the assembly work looks like this:

  1. A support frame is made from channels or pipes 4 cm in diameter. To do this, you need 4 segments that are welded together. The width is selected depending on the power of the motor.
  2. The shaft, which can be an ordinary pipe 5 cm in diameter, is attached to the main frame. This is done using bushings and support type bearings.
  3. Rototiller knives are made from metal plates 1.2 cm thick. Their number depends on the width of the shaft. Using bolts and nuts, the cutting units are attached to the shaft.

The location of the wheels is thought out in advance. With their help, the depth of immersion of the shaft knives is regulated. The chain for the gearbox is best purchased at the store.

Attention! Only a person who has the skills to handle the tools listed above can make a rototiller.

At the end of the process, the parts that will be subjected to friction during operation are lubricated with grease.

Variations for working in a small area

You can make a structure for tillage with your own hands on the basis of an electric or chainsaw. One of the important advantages of the design is the fact that the saw itself does not have to be redone. After disassembling the structure for several minutes, the tool is used for its intended purpose. For welding the frame of a homemade cutter, a steel pipe with a diameter of 24 mm and a wall thickness of 4 mm is used. The power plant is fixed with clamps.

Advice. The first stage chain and sprockets can be taken from an old bicycle. The second stage should be more powerful. Here it is better to use a motorcycle part.

The cutter itself is a thick-walled pipe 30 mm in diameter. 6 teeth are welded to it at an angle of 30 °. Half shafts are welded along the edges in bearings No. 202. The chain tension and the position of the axis are provided with special screws. All chain drives are covered with protective covers.

Attention! If an electric saw is used, grounding is necessary, that is, ensuring reliable contact between the body and the frame of the rotator.

Self-manufacturing of a tiller is quite real. If, before starting work, you study the material on the topic well, correctly calculate the scheme and select the necessary materials, as a result you can get a reliable assistant who will turn complex land work into pleasure.
