Trailed and attached equipment for cascade walk-behind tractors. Attachments: increasing the efficiency of the Cascade walk-behind tractor

Motoblocks of domestic production trademark“Cascade” have earned a good reputation and for at least ten years have been one of the most popular among villagers and summer residents. This recognition did not come naturally. Walk-behind tractors "Cascade" are produced in accordance with technical requirements And international standards ISO-9002 quality.

They are equipped with a steering wheel that is adjustable in height and horizontally, which allows you to adjust it to your height, as well as turn it to the side so as not to trample the cultivated ground. The low center of gravity allows you to save effort when working. More on other features of the Cascade walk-behind tractor below.

Motoblocks "Cascade" are produced in the city of Perm. Their manufacturer is OJSC "Reductor-PM" (PM - Perm Motors), part of the enterprise "Aviation Gearboxes and Transmissions - PM".

This plant, part of the Russian Military-Industrial Complex, dates back to 1951, and specializes in the production and after-sales service of gearboxes and transmissions for domestically produced helicopters.

Pavilion of JSC "Reductor-PM" at the international exhibition of the helicopter industry "HeliRussia".

Walk-behind tractors appeared on the company’s product list in 1995 and became one of the few concrete manifestations of the then fashionable term “conversion” (i.e. transition military industry for the production of purely civilian products).

The main function of the Cascade walk-behind tractor is pre-sowing tillage. Complete with appropriate mounted implements, the walk-behind tractor is designed for surface plowing, loosening and soil cultivation; leveling areas intended for sowing. In the future, “Cascade” will be useful for hilling crop plants and inter-row cultivation.

In addition, "Cascade" walk-behind tractors successfully work with the widest range of additional attachments - various cutters, hillers, walk-behind shovels, diggers, and trolley trailers. Attachments are attached to the walk-behind tractor using special “metal fingers”, which ensure good reliability and sufficient rigidity of the hitch.

The list of drive equipment available for use with Cascades includes: rotary snow blowers, water pumps, hay mowers, mechanical potato planters, feed crushers. In these cases, the supply of useful force is carried out from power plant. The drive equipment is installed in front of the walk-behind tractor and operates via an additional belt drive.

The Cascade walk-behind tractor consists of four main elements: engine, transmission, chassis and controls. The chassis also includes the metal tubular frame of the walk-behind tractor with the wheels attached to it. Important Feature“Cascade” is the ability to change its track, that is, the inter-wheel space, during operation.

The wheels on these walk-behind tractors are used both rubber pneumatic and rubber cast, as well as weighted metal ones. You can use the Cascade walk-behind tractor without wheels - with cultivator cutters. The cultivator for "Cascade" - "KMB 1.002.000" - has a diameter of 350 mm and provides rotary cultivation of the soil to a depth of 20 cm, with a working width of 45 cm (when installing two cutters) and up to 93 cm (when installing four cutters).

The function of transmitting torque from the engine to the wheels is performed by the walk-behind tractor transmission. It consists of a clutch, gearbox and chain reducer. These individual transmission elements are installed on Cascade walk-behind tractors, both individually and in a single unit. Other operational functions of the walk-behind tractor transmission are assistance in adjusting the speed of work and ensuring its turns while moving along the work area.

Any of the engines internal combustion on walk-behind tractors "Cascade" - gasoline, carburetor, single-cylinder, four-stroke, with air cooled. Ignition is electronic non-contact. Spark plug - type “A11-1 OST 37.003.081-98”.

The engine is started using a manual starter with a pull cord. The noise level at the walk-behind tractor operator's workplace is, according to the manufacturer, 89 dBA. The vibration level on the controls (local vibration) does not exceed 135 dBA.

Over the years of production at this technique tried installing similar ones technical specifications, both domestic engines, produced in-house by the Perm plant, and Chinese “Briggs & Stratton”, “Honda”. (Yes, Briggs & Stratton is an American company, and Honda is a Japanese company, but engines for walk-behind tractors of these brands are made in China). Gradually the motors Russian production are a thing of the past, and the “Cascades” of the last years of production are all equipped with Chinese “engines”.

The domestically produced “DM-66” and “DM-68” engines are sleeved single-cylinder OHV engines with overhead valves. Built-in automatic decompressor ensures low starting effort. The working volume of the DM-66 and DM-68 engines is 317 cubic centimeters. These engines run on any gasoline - AI-80, AI-92, AI-95.

The oil sump volume of the DM-66 and DM-68 engines is 1.4 liters. The orientation of the crankshaft is horizontal. The cylinder diameter is 76 millimeters. The maximum torque is 14.2 N.m. Overall dimensions – 45x41x43 cm. Weight – 28 kg. Average fuel consumption is within two liters per hour.

Briggs&Stratton engines of the INTEK I/C and Vanguard OHV series, also single-cylinder, of a similar design to the DM, have a displacement of 208 cubic centimeters and a rated power of 4.8 kW (6.5 hp). The cylinder diameter is 68 mm. Maximum torque – 12.6 N.m. Overall dimensions – 32x38x35 cm.

It is characteristic that the power indicators, according to the company’s official website, were established “according to Briggs & Stratton estimates.”

Many, not unreasonably, consider the best of the Cascade walk-behind tractors to be those equipped with a Honda engine. And in fact, the Honda GC-200 engine is perhaps the most common “engine” in the world of walk-behind tractors – both domestic and Asian-made; It has been produced for decades and has an almost impeccable reputation.

The Honda GC-200 motor has a really high operating efficiency and slow wear of parts. It also features lower fuel consumption - not 2, but 1.7 or even 1.5 liters of gasoline per hour on average. The working volume of the Honda engine is 196 cubic centimeters; maximum power – 6.5 horsepower (at 3600 rpm). Cylinder diameter – 68 mm; maximum torque – 12.4 N.m. Overall dimensions – 32x38x35 cm.

IN recent years The market is dominated by the version of the Cascade walk-behind tractor, equipped with a cheaper analogue of the Honda GC-200 engine - also a Chinese-made Lifan engine, model Lifan 168F-2.

The clutch of the "Cascade" walk-behind tractors is belt-type. The clutch mechanism operates on the basis of belt tension of a V-belt type transmission. Gearbox (two types are used, factory indices “005.45.7700” and “005.45.7530” on this walk-behind tractor - chain type, two-speed

The manufacturer notes that the gearbox on the Cascade walk-behind tractor is reinforced, its output shaft is mounted on large-diameter bearings. This ensures high resistance of the mechanisms to vibrations and shocks.

Chain reducer of the "Cascade" walk-behind tractor.

As standard, “Cascade” walk-behind tractors are equipped with pneumatic tires 4.00-10, model TU 38.304-13-13-92; or cast, massive, with channels on the sides, 5.00L-12, model F-232 TU 38.304-13-05-92.

  • cutters that allow you to cultivate the land on a strip with a width of 45 to 93 centimeters. If the land does not belong to the category of virgin or particularly hard soils, then it makes sense to add two additional cutters to the two standard cutters, more than doubling the strip of land being simultaneously cultivated.
  • hiller. Very convenient and useful equipment, the value of which will be appreciated by anyone who has tried it in action. It not only destroys weeds in the inter-row space, but also adds soil to the stems and roots of cultivated plants, helping them develop and grow.
  • flat cutter It not only loosens the soil, but also crushes the roots of weeds, reducing labor costs for further weeding of the area.
  • trailer-trolley. Of course, the walking speed of the walk-behind tractor is very low, but, in any case, it is better to transport bags of potatoes or other heavy or dirty cargo in a cart, rather than dragging them “on your hump.” The same - construction waste, various tools and materials. The trailer is designed for a load of up to 600 kilograms.

  • feed crusher Eliminates the need to take grain to the mill to grind it into crushed grain. It is convenient and reasonable to prepare crushed porridge for pigs and other livestock right in your barnyard.
  • mower. Anyone who has tried to mow with a regular scythe and prepare hay for the winter to feed even just one cow and calf knows what a long and difficult work it is. The mower reduces labor costs and time for making hay several times.
  • water pump. If there is a river or other body of water near the garden, then why not stretch a hose there and install a pump. Especially if the water supply is in summer period interruptions happen. The Cascade walk-behind tractor will provide such a strong and stable water pressure that watering the garden will take very little time. You just need to stock up on a special sprinkler attachment for the hose so that it doesn’t wash away the soil along with the cultivated plants.
  • snow blower. Clearing snowdrifts after heavy snowfall with a shovel is pleasant only for the first 10-15 minutes of this work. With the help of a walk-behind tractor, the process will go disproportionately faster and more efficiently.
  • potato planter and digger. Villagers will confirm that while planting potatoes with an ordinary shovel is not the most labor-intensive task, then digging them up is already hard and persistent work. More than half of the labor costs, subject to the use of appropriate equipment, will be transferred to the “metal shoulders” of the walk-behind tractor.

Over the years of production, Reductor-PM OJSC has brought to the market so many modifications of the Cascade walk-behind tractor that, at first glance, it seems that there are too many of them and you can get confused in them. However, this is not true. In fact, it's simple. You just need to “read” the alphabetic and digital designations in the factory indices of these walk-behind tractors.

MB6 – model with domestic engine(“DM66” or “DM68”). MB61 – model with engine foreign production(“Briggs & Stratton” or “Honda”).

01 – steering rod. 02 – rotating steering column, which allows you to adjust the position of the steering wheel in the vertical and horizontal planes.

In the 04 series gearbox, the gearbox output shaft is mounted on needle bearings. In gearboxes of the 05, 06, 07 series, the gearbox output shaft is mounted on ball bearings.

Also, the gearboxes of the 05 and 06 series provide a reduced speed in first gear, which provides a number of advantages, for example, when working with a mower and snow blower, it allows you to mow grass and remove snow more efficiently.

The gearboxes of the 06, 07 series also use a mechanism for decoupling the output shafts, which makes it easier to control the walk-behind tractor when turning, and increases its maneuverability when used as a vehicle and during soil cultivation.

First use rules

The Cascade MB-6 walk-behind tractor needs to be run in immediately after purchasing the product. This procedure is necessary to ensure that internal parts are worn in and adapted to local weather and road conditions. Thanks to this, the car will last much longer. At the same time, the frequency of unpredictable breakdowns will be significantly reduced, and maintenance will need to be carried out only in accordance with the regulations. So, for proper break-in, it is important to follow the following steps:

  • Before starting the procedure, you should remember that running-in does not involve operating the walk-behind tractor at maximum load. Only partial load is allowed - it is believed that this mode is the most favorable for running in parts
  • First of all, we start the engine and let it run for 40-50 minutes at idle speed. IN at the moment It is also necessary to carry out maintenance of the gearbox - engage each gear one by one, and repeat this for at least 5-10 minutes
  • During the running-in, it is allowed various types works, including hilling, cultivation, plowing, transporting goods, pumping water and other household tasks. It is important that during the break-in period the load on the walk-behind tractor does not exceed half of the maximum permissible value. For example, when transporting goods, it is allowed to transport up to 250-300 kg while the permitted 500-550 kg
  • The run-in can be considered completed after 8-10 hours. We drive the equipment into the garage and begin maintenance. First of all, you need to pay attention to the condition of the external panels, as well as the lower part of the walk-behind tractor and consumables. If necessary, you can add fuel, change filters, wheels, etc.
  • The next day, the walk-behind tractor can be subjected to maximum load.

Attachments

The manufacturer did not provide a single attachment option in the basic configuration of the walk-behind tractor, which can be considered an advantage rather than a disadvantage. Indeed, in this case, the buyer has the opportunity to choose the right set himself, and at the same time save on unnecessary options. Let's highlight the most popular options for the Plowman MB-6:

  • Potato digger, potato planter - necessary for planting and digging all types of crops
  • Hiller – provides gentle care for agricultural crops
  • A plow is a means for the initial processing of the earthen surface. The reinforced transmission together with the plow allows you to cope with even the most difficult virgin soil
