Rating of the best KaDvi motoblocks in 2024

Working on a personal plot is fun and helps to escape from the bustle of the city. Moreover, technical progress has presented farmers with a lot of reliable assistants. Cultivators and walk-behind tractors are the leaders in agricultural machinery among small subsidiary farms. The walk-behind tractor has more power and can handle the cultivation of an area of ​​land much larger than a cultivator. The wheels of the overwhelming majority of models are similar in size and design to tractor wheels. We'll talk about the best KaDvi walk-behind tractors in 2024 below.

Medium, light and heavy walk-behind tractors

The functionality of the walk-behind tractor is superior to the cultivator and includes:

1. hilling;
2. plowing;
3. mowing;
4. harvesting;
5. additional functions of active loads.

The entire range of motoblocks can be divided into heavy, light and medium.

A light walk-behind tractor has a mass of 20-30 kg and is intended for cultivating land with an area of ​​no more than 20 acres. The maximum immersion depth in the ground is 20 cm. Attached equipment provides stability to such a walk-behind tractor, it is also possible to install a plow, a cutter.

A professional walk-behind tractor, weighing 100 kg or more, has a powerful engine designed for serious fuel consumption. Such a unit is capable of lifting and transporting several tons of cargo, it has the widest functionality and requires a large amount of storage space.

The middle walk-behind tractor is a representative of the transition from heavy to light, has limited functionality, it is possible to work with a trailer for transportation, and it is also possible to mount a device for planting and digging out potatoes.

Criteria for choosing a walk-behind tractor

Before the start of the summer cottage season and the planned purchase of equipment, the farmer faces a dilemma: which walk-behind tractor is better to buy and what characteristics of the unit to consider when choosing.

Power

When choosing a power, you should decide on the area of ​​land to be cultivated, take into account the peculiarity of the soil and draw up a list of functions that the unit should have. The power of various devices ranges from 3.5 horsepower to 10. The maximum engine power will be required to process areas of more than 1 hectare and a working width of 1 meter.

When working on a plot of 15 acres, you can stop at an engine power of 3-4 hp and the sufficiency of the capture of 60 cm.

Power from 5 to 7 horsepower is required in areas from 20 acres to half a hectare, respectively, the working width is from 80 to 90 cm.

Weight and type of soil

For the cultivation of virgin and clay lands, weak equipment is not suitable, the guarantee of overloads is provided. The lightweight machine does not provide sufficient ground grasping depth and causes slipping.

With a model weight of 70 kg and a capacity of 3.5 to 6 "horses", you can count on high-quality processing of light soil.

For clayey lands, a unit weight of 95 kg is required.

The virgin soil is processed by mini-tractors weighing from 120 to 150 kg. In this technique, lugs in the form of metal wheels must be included in the kit.

Functionality

The power take-off shaft enables the use of power attachments such as a mower, rake, chopper, water pump, seeder, snow blower.

In the winter period of operation, the fuel is gasoline, respectively, and the type of engine.

For frequent transportation of goods, you should opt for models with pneumatic wheels.

Repairability

For domestic models of motoblocks, it will not be difficult to purchase spare parts, as well as the opportunity to make repairs with your own hands. The manufacturer's instructions refer to gear oils which, if used correctly, will increase their service life. Replacing the oil seals on the gearbox can be similarly done by yourself.

Overall dimensions

Overall dimensions are of particular importance for small farms and garden plots. Safe storage and a minimum of occupied space is an important point for choosing a walk-behind tractor.

Non-standard use

The increased tractive effort provides the use of the unit for outdoor enthusiasts, in particular, for hunters, mushroom pickers and fishermen. Traveling over rough terrain on such a unit will leave your legs dry and save energy.

Selection errors

The multifunctionality of the walk-behind tractor does not mean its high cost and power. It is important to decide on active hinges, some of which will have to be purchased additionally.

Fuel consumption: you can pre-consult with the managers when buying - about the number of hours of continuous operation and fuel costs. On average, under uniform load, the continuous stroke is 3 hours, with a flow rate of 3-4 liters.

Lines of walk-behind tractors KaDvi

The KaDvi lineup is represented by two series: Ugra and Oka.

Ugra series

The first models of the Ugra series began to be produced in 2009.

Their distinctive feature is a gear reducer, sintered clutch discs and a "mechanics" gearbox.

Attachments allow you not only to work on the soil, but also to mow, irrigate, plant and harvest potatoes. In winter, it copes with snow removal, and is also used for transporting goods all year round.

Two power take-off shafts are used to switch additional implements of the mounted type:

• circular saw;
• water pump;
• earthen drill;
• feed crushers.

The adapters are also connected to a hiller plow, a root crop digger, a harrow, a potato planter. In winter, a walk-behind tractor equipped with a shovel blade will provide quick cleaning of the territory. The increased traction force allows for work on heavy soil and in the off-season on pre-treated soils.

The steering system is provided in vertical and horizontal adjustment, it is protected from vibrations. The turning radius excludes trampling of the treated surface. Compliance with European safety standards is maintained within the framework of the instantaneous shutdown of the unit in case of emergency.

• the presence of a drive to the rear wheels, due to which the tractive effort increases 3 times and increases the cross-country ability of the unit;
• compactness - control is carried out from the operator's workplace;
• the use of modern production technologies and engineering;
• reliability and high quality;
• technical assistance of a new level without investing large financial resources.

Oka series

The first model of Oka walk-behind tractors came out in 1991. Today it still remains the best in the category of units weighing up to 90 kg. High quality, in accordance with standards and affordable prices made the brand popular in the Russian market.

The walk-behind tractor is used not only for agricultural work, but also for maintaining order on garden paths, lawns, and is also ideal for cargo transportation.

Developers and manufacturers have provided for the operation of the walk-behind tractor throughout the year, in different climatic conditions.

The improvement of the model range continues, today the attached and trailed equipment includes:

• trailed cargo cart;
• hiller;
• cultivator cutters;
• brush;
• plow;
• mower;
• snow blower;
• lug;
• "Planter and digger" of potatoes.

The ground clearance of the walk-behind tractor of 140 mm allows you not to be afraid of bumps and bumps, and the track width from 310 to 590 mm makes the model productive.

The speed of the first gear is 3.6 km / h, the second - 9 km / h, which guarantees high-quality soil cultivation, with various loads and sufficient areas.

The motoblock is operated in a temperature range from -20 to +35 degrees without loss of efficiency.

The caster angle in the extreme permissible value is 20 °. The small turning radius of the unit of 1.1 meters indicates its mobility and protection of the soil from mechanical compaction.

Budget models are equipped with wheelbase extensions and additional milling cutters, which significantly increases the width of the transport path.

The unit is equipped with a drawbar for active attachments like a snow blower and a mower.

The steering column is wide and ergonomic. Controls: forward handle and reverse handle. The speed control is located on the right hand side of the steering column.

A novelty in the lineup is hedgehog rippers, which are put on instead of wheels for weeding and loosening the row spacing. The shaft diameter is 30 mm or 25 mm, depending on the walk-behind tractor. An innovative solution using modern technology. Hedgehogs are purchased for additional payment.

Small equipment KaDvi works regularly in 70 regions of Russia.
