Review of Patriot cultivators

Garden equipment from the American brand Patriot has long been known to land owners. In addition to Patriot motor cultivators, the company produces walk-behind tractors, lawn mowers, and various garden tools in a wide range. Under the strict supervision of qualified American personnel, Patriot walk-behind tractors and cultivators are produced at enterprises in Italy, Russia, and China.

The use of high-quality Patriot brand agricultural machines significantly facilitates hard work on the land and helps to mechanize many agricultural and economic works.

How to disassemble the gearbox on the Patriot Ural walk-behind tractor

Buying a walk-behind tractor is quite a responsible matter , requiring special attention to the smallest details and aspects. The right choice, in our example, will help to significantly facilitate agricultural work while minimizing breakdowns and, in addition, the costs of carrying out repairs.

In this case, the choice is made ill-considered, then the consumer will doubtfully be satisfied with the quality of similar equipment, because it is necessary to pay attention not only to the power of the motor used, but also to the type of land for which the other unit, as it is also called, is required.

There are many companies, Russian and foreign, that produce walk-behind tractors and cultivators. Russian units are usually popular here due to their low price and availability.

But among foreign companies there are of course many worthy ones that require special consideration. This must also be said about the Patriot company, founded in the USA.

Patriot Ural gasoline walk , which we will discuss now, deserves closer attention

The Patriot Ural walk-behind tractor, as well as the Sadko, Don, Huter, Profi, Plowman, Favorit, Carver, Tarpan TMZ MK 03 walk-behind tractors, in other words, the Texas cultivator, are reliable and fairly universal technical means that allow any work on cultivating the land, planting various vegetable and fruit crops, as well as their future care.

The ability to connect additional attachments via a pulley opens up enormous possibilities for the farmer in his work, which affects not only work on the ground, but also the removal of snow and debris.

By the way, virtually any suspended type equipment from other manufacturers can be aggregated with the device. This is achieved thanks to the presence of a universal coupling; additional devices are connected to the occupied one.

• The special design of the frame allows you to easily move the unit by grasping the comfortable handrails.
• The gearbox is made of cast iron, which, in itself, eliminates the presence of seams and joints. This event makes it possible to avoid various oil leaks. Already today, such production material can significantly extend the service life of the gearbox itself.

Motoblocks (cultivator) Patriot Ural, Cayman, Patriot, Texas, Foreman, Crosser, Viking, Forza are designed specifically for use in the agricultural sector . But their application will be most widespread if additional attachments are used together with it.

Or, to what extent you can choose the right studio, which suspension device is aggregated with the walk-behind tractor, depends on the front that it is capable of producing.

There are several types of attachments for the Patriot Ural walk-behind tractor:

But the main area of ​​its use is still plowing, harrowing, and also loosening earthen holdings in order to remove unnecessary vegetation, and also saturate the soil with the necessary air and moisture.

This is important in the matter of ripening the coming harvest , because incorrectly prepared soil may not allow all the sown crops and vegetables to grow.

Patriot Ural 440108000 walk-behind tractor has quite small dimensions, which allows it to be used not only in open areas, but also inside various greenhouses and hotbeds for plowing the land there.

Technical properties:

• type of engine used - 4-stroke, gasoline;
• maximum power – 7.8 hp;
• the volume of the motor used is 220 cm3;
• width of the processed strip – 900 mm;
• gears - four forward and two reverse;
• total weight – 87 kg;
• digging depth – 320 mm;
• fuel tank volume – 3.6 l;
• unit length – 65 cm;
• unit width – 80 cm;
• unit height – 45 cm.

The price of this unit is about 32 thousand rubles , depending on the duration of the project in the region where the sale takes place.

Determining the pros and cons of a particular technical unit seems to be a fairly personal reflection of personal preferences and feelings. This, if several people immediately point out a certain problem, then this means it is not based on empty space, there are some reasons here.

With the pluses, things are more ordinary, because it’s hard not to see certain trivial advantages of the walk-behind tractor during use.

The main advantages of the Patriot Ural walk-behind tractor include:

• The presence of a fairly massive motor, which allows the walk-behind tractor to be used in a variety of areas.
• The comfortable frame allows you to solve the issue of transporting and moving the unit - all you have to do is grab the tubes on the frame to move the device. But it’s better to do it together, because the weight of the device is unusually large – 87 kg.
• The control handles are rubberized, which allows you to firmly fix them in your own hands.
• The fuel tank has a fairly large opening for fuel, which prevents gasoline from spilling when filling.
• Possibility of adjusting the control handle.
• Quite a wide range of speeds for carrying out different work (low gears for cultivating land, decent for transporting goods).
• The design includes a sensor indicating the amount of oil in the walk-behind tractor.
• Thanks to the removable cover, belt breakage and breakage are virtually eliminated.

Repair of cultivator chain gearbox

• The presence of an air filter can significantly increase the service life of the engine.
• The design includes mudguards that protect the person operating the walk-behind tractor from getting dirt.
• The cutters have a special shape that allows them to smoothly enter the soil without making unnecessary jerks.

The disadvantages of this walk-behind tractor include relatively high fuel consumption , but this is a failure of many gasoline options. Today, some note the inability of the unit to cultivate languid areas of land; alas, the declared power should not be enough for such work.

The Patriot Ural walk-behind tractor is an excellent candidate for Russian technology, in this case not inferior, and in some places even surpassing them in certain performance indicators.

Taking into account that the cost of such a unit is approximately in the same price category, there is a possibility that, in the future, the Patriot Ural will provide severe competition to many models of walk-behind tractors , the positions of which seemed unshakable in the Russian market.
