Questions about malfunctions of the Zubr diesel walk-behind tractor

A walk-behind tractor is an indispensable piece of equipment for both small-scale and large-scale farming. At its affordable cost, it, together with classical soil cultivation, performs many other functions - hilling beds, digging potatoes, preparing haylage, transporting goods and sowing grain or vegetable crops. When the need arises to purchase this equipment, the question immediately arises - who to give preference to - an imported or domestic walk-behind tractor. But thanks to the Salyut brand, we can confidently answer in favor of “our” manufacturer.

Motoblocks "Salut" are one of the exemplary cultivators produced (Yaroslavl region). Its initial development went on sale in 2002, which served as a basis for new innovative developments and design solutions embodied in later models.

Advantages of Salyut cultivators:

wear resistance of materials and fasteners;
productive motor systems for various volumes of work and load;
universal cutter design designed for the prevailing soil types in Eurasia;
rational consumption of fuel and lubricants;
adaptability to work in a wide range of environmental conditions;
opportunities for cultivation in fields located at a slope of 15-30 0 (while many domestic brands give a limit of 10 0).

Like any other equipment, Salyut walk-behind tractors have certain disadvantages:

no wheel differential lock;
ill-conceived lighting for operation at night and in poor visibility;
fragility of the belt drive.

Despite these nuances, which do not significantly affect the productivity of the unit or are eliminated during self-repair, the competitive position of this tillage equipment remains high.

Leading units of any Salyut walk-behind tractor:

engine - the brand uses mainly 4-stroke Chinese Lifan engines, but in recent years models have appeared with Honda and Robin-Subaru engines, as well as with American (Briggs & Stratton) power plants. All of them have an overhead valve arrangement and air cooling to protect against overheating. The company’s immediate plans include producing diesel walk-behind tractors with increased performance;
gearbox - in budget models its role is played by 1 or several chains, in more expensive ones - a gear reducer connected to the gearbox into a single link. The production resource of the latter is about 3 thousand engine hours;
transmission – multi-stage with reversible capability;
clutch – transmits the torque coming from the motor to the gearbox itself. It is represented by 2 V-belts, under which the motor shaft is equipped with a pulley with grooves of different sizes. It is also characteristic that by turning the pulley you can double the number of available working gears.

Operation and maintenance of Salyut walk-behind tractors

The success of using cultivators depends entirely on the user. If you follow the standards specified by the manufacturer in the operating instructions, they will last for decades. For this:

After purchase, a new unit is run in for 25 hours to break in spare parts, which implies a gentle short-term load according to the video instructions;
The run-in device is checked for belt tension and integrity of connections;
After every 25 hours worked, monitor the oil level in the gearbox and top up if necessary;
50 hours - change the lubricant in the engine crankcase;
100 hours – clean the walk-behind tractor from dirt and dust deposits, change the gear oil and renew the belts;
300 hours – lubricate the throttle and clutch cables with oil.

Auto mechanic, specializes in agricultural equipment

Modern special equipment includes a lot of different components. There are main power parts, as well as auxiliary mechanisms and body devices. Each individual element is responsible for its work, which is why a full-fledged device performs the task assigned to it. Almost every modern equipment has in its design an element such as a gearbox. This mechanism has the purpose of uniformly converting and transmitting torque. In this case, it is necessary to consider in detail the gearbox of the Salyut brand walk-behind tractor.

Sequence of actions for running in a walk-behind tractor

During break-in, all parts of the engine, transmission and chassis are ground in and worked out. In practice, this is a gentle mode of operation of the walk-behind tractor.

Run-in is carried out following four basic rules:

Oil level. It must be checked before each engine start;
Refilling the fuel tank. The operation is not difficult, but it is recommended to use the brand specified by the manufacturer in the operating instructions for the unit;
Starting the walk-behind tractor. The engine should run at medium speed for some time. All gears need to be tested within an hour. In this way, the engine is not only run in, but the device is also set up for further operation;
Functionality of the unit. This stage includes work on cultivation, plowing and transporting goods. It is important to adhere to the maximum permissible load.

Features of the gearbox design

This structural element includes many individual parts. Here we need to consider some of the nuances of the design of this working unit, namely:

Since the composition contains a large number of different elements, for their reliable operation they require a lubricant, which is oil.
This working mechanism also requires timely maintenance (replacement of consumables).
The performance of the entire walk-behind tractor directly depends on the condition of the gearbox, since torque is transmitted through it to the drive axle.
If you do not change the oil in the gearbox in a timely manner, the working elements will quickly become unusable.
There are metal gears that are constantly in contact with each other, forming friction.
This operating mechanism can be replaced if necessary, but it is expensive.

In this video you will learn about the gearbox of the walk-behind tractor: Also, the oil seal in the gearbox of the Salyut walk-behind tractor must be replaced in a timely manner, since this element is responsible for the tightness of the entire structural component. If this device fails, oil gradually disappears, which is extremely important for the operation of the entire mechanism.

Important! Despite its design feature, this element is not a complex mechanism and, if necessary, anyone can cope with its overhaul or repair independently.

Unit cost

The cost depends on the technical characteristics and equipment of the purchased assistant. The main factors influencing the final cost are the size of the tank and the power of the selected model. We can only name approximate prices for the most popular options: a 5.5 hp unit. with an engine capacity of 3.8 liters it will cost 800 USD, but the Salyut-6.5 walk-behind tractor can be found for 27-28 thousand rubles, the Salyut-100 walk-behind tractor will cost 32-36 thousand.

With such an average price tag, you want to get high-quality equipment that will last for many years. However, keep in mind that the service life directly depends on the installed gearbox. The best option is gear. Large loads lead to unit failure much faster. However, the warranty for most copies is only 1 year.

Types and purposes

The reducer of the Salute walk-behind tractor in its structural integrity contains such elements as a boot, an oil seal, gears, bearings and a number of other elements. However, in this case it is necessary to understand the purpose of this mechanism and its varieties:

non-separable converters (as a rule, these structural elements are mounted on relatively inexpensive equipment and, if they fail, must be immediately replaced);
dismountable mechanisms (most often mounted on expensive special equipment, which makes them easier to repair, and there is no need to replace them if they fail).

The drive mechanism itself serves to receive torque from the engine, and then transmit it to the axle, while evenly distributing the load on each wheel. Also, these products can be divided into angular, worm and step-down, depending on their purpose.

Important! Regardless of what type of mechanism is installed, it is mandatory that the gearbox seal be replaced during maintenance, and the oil in the gearbox of a Salyut 100 walk-behind tractor or on any other device is also changed.

The walk-behind tractor is equipped with a low gear!
Motoblock Shtenli 1900 Pro 18 hp without PTO – this is a new product in the professional series of agricultural machinery. The main feature of this model is the low gear, including which you can move at low speed, for example, during arable work. With it, you will efficiently cultivate the land without exhausting yourself.

The Shtenli 1900 Pro is equipped with large wheels that will cover any virgin soil. The unit can be used for work in the dark, since it has headlights. And the differential will make it much easier to control the walk-behind tractor.

What and how much oil to fill

Many ignorant owners of special equipment are interested in the question of what kind of oil is poured into this part. Let's take a closer look at the criteria for choosing this component:

the composition should provide maximum viscosity so that all working units do not rub against each other;
this mixture must withstand elevated temperatures, since during operation there is strong friction of the parts;
this component must have the necessary concentration indicators (preserve the composition for a long time);
the oil should not be compressed (the composition must have a high density).

Do not pour oil into the gearbox
. As a rule, gear oil is used for special equipment, which provides the best performance indicators for such mechanisms. This consumable must be filled into the gearbox in accordance with the level. The amount of liquid for each individual node is different.

Important! The oil in the gearbox of the Salyut walk-behind tractor, or, as it is also called, a walk-behind cultivator, must be kept at a level, but not allowed to reach its maximum, otherwise there is a possibility of depressurization of the device and fluid leakage.

Advantages of Salyut walk-behind tractors

use of wear-resistant materials for the manufacture of the case and fastenings;
high performance of the motor system for performing different types of work;
cutters are designed for prevailing Eurasian soil types;
rational consumption of lubricant and fuel;
ability to adapt for work in various conditions;
Cultivation can be carried out in fields with a slope of 15-30°C.

Motoblocks from this manufacturer have a bright red metal body, shields and handles, which are combined with black working units.

Changing the oil in a walk-behind tractor

You can change this consumable in the Salyut 5 walk-behind tractor yourself; you don’t have to contact specialists for this. Let's take a closer look at how this procedure is performed:

first of all, it is necessary to warm up the mechanism so that the composition is less dense and can be easily drained;
after this, the device must be turned off and the systematic replacement of fluid in the gearbox must begin;
Next, you need to prepare a suitable transmission fluid, as well as an oil seal suitable for the device;
Next, you need to unscrew the oil plug and drain all the oil present in the mechanism;
if necessary, you can use flushing to remove all impurities and dirt from the assembly;
then a new compound is poured in, and the oil seal is mounted (this must be done in accordance with the technology in order to maintain tightness inside the assembly).

After the maintenance has been carried out, it is necessary to run in for some time without loading the unit so that all parts can get used to the new lubricant.

Important! If flushing is used, then it is necessary to let the device work for some time (usually about an hour) so that all stuck-on impurities are removed.

Operation and Maintenance

Operation and maintenance of the Shtenli 1900 pro series walk-behind tractor are carried out in accordance with the following rules:

running in from 8 to 10 hours, engine load - 2/3 power;
engine oil - SAE5W-30 (synthetic in winter, semi-synthetic in summer), transmission oil - 80W-90 (or equivalent viscosity);
oil change - after break-in, then every 50 operating hours;
during storage, the walk-behind tractor is left with an empty gas tank and oil sump;
store the device at above-zero temperatures;
Once a year, replace or clean the spark plug, oil and gasoline filters.

Replacing oil seals

If maintenance is performed, then this element will also have to be replaced. Let us consider in detail how this procedure is performed:

first of all, you need to remove the cutters from the device;
Next, you need to unscrew the holding bolts;
after this, the corresponding cover is removed;
the old structural element is removed;
a new oil seal is placed in its place;
sealant must be applied on top.

After this, the lid is closed, the bolts are screwed in, and the removed cutters are installed in place.

It is worth noting that this procedure is recommended to be carried out in conjunction with replacing the fluid, which is carried out once every 100 hours of using special equipment.

Repairs and malfunctions

Despite the fact that walk-behind tractors of the Salyut model range are reliable, in some cases malfunctions occur in the gearboxes. Let's look at the main problems you may encounter and how to deal with them:

Weak return after oil change (no sealing, the oil seal needs to be reinstalled and sealant applied).
A metallic noise is heard (usually due to lack of lubrication, service should be carried out immediately).
The mechanism hums (there is an excess of mixture in the gearbox, the excess liquid needs to be drained).

Other malfunctions may also occur related to the breakdown of bearings or gears, as well as anthers; here it is necessary to immediately replace worn parts.

Important! If the device is non-separable, then if there is a serious malfunction, you will have to buy a new one, which is why, in order not to encounter unnecessary costs, the oil fluid on such elements is replaced more often.

Currently, special equipment includes many high-quality structural elements. However, even despite this, it can be subject to breakdowns. Often the failure of components is associated with a lack of lubrication, which has an extremely detrimental effect on the metal. That is why, in order to avoid unnecessary waste of funds, it is recommended to carry out maintenance in a timely manner. In this case, the working apparatus will perform all the duties assigned to it for a long time.

According to the results of a survey of equipment owners, the Salyut-5 walk-behind tractor is one of the most popular types of agricultural equipment among domestic consumers. It is second only to Neva brand cultivators in the championship category. And this is not surprising. These universal machines were developed back in the Soviet Union, and are produced by the Moscow Salut plant to this day, never ceasing to delight summer residents and farmland owners.

The high-tech Salyut-5 walk-behind tractor has a huge safety margin and, with the appropriate equipment, can perform almost any task. An extensive selection of high-quality engines, the use of load-resistant elements in the manufacture and a successful design make these products the optimal choice for a wide range of consumers.

Technical means of the Salyut trademark are characterized by high strength, impeccable balance and fit of each element. Motor cultivators demonstrate excellent maneuverability, are able to quickly change speed modes, and easily move on all kinds of surfaces. Even if the walk-behind tractor gets stuck somewhere, it will be very easy to remove it from there.

All this allows Salyut-5 machines to confidently compete with similar imported equipment not only in terms of quality, but also cost.

Video review of Shtenli 900

“I have a plot of 15 acres. I regularly work with cutters and do work with potatoes.

Among the advantages of the Stanley Pro are low fuel consumption, high weight and power, and the presence of a low gear.

But one of the disadvantages is the unclear operating instructions. They probably have a standard one, since half of the details are not indicated in it at all. Low quality metal. Many bolts do not hold and I have already replaced almost all of them with normal ones. The wires are not secured in any way and can be easily torn off.

There were problems with the ignition system, I changed the spark plug, and now it starts normally.

The impression is twofold. The quality is clearly not German, but it’s about worth the money.”

Advantages and disadvantages of the model

Motor cultivators Salyut-5: multifunctional, they will be indispensable for work in the garden, in the garden and even in a greenhouse. They plow, cultivate, loosen and harrow the soil, and easily form furrows. It is easy to hill up plantings and remove tubers and root crops from the ground.
The soil treated with such a unit is characterized by the most loose structure in comparison with other cultivators. This is due to the fact that the cutting width of the cutting elements of adjacent cutters contributes to their overlap.
The machines can also be used for lawn care, cleaning garden paths, transporting small loads and even removing snow! The presence of forged cutters allows cultivators to work on any type of soil, including virgin soil.
Motoblocks have small dimensions and weight, which in the conditions of a personal plot make it more maneuverable, as well as easy to operate and maintain.
A convenient, side- and height-adjustable steering wheel makes it possible not to follow the machine across the arable land. Moreover, when cultivating the soil, the cultivator can be adjusted to the required width and depth.
Particular convenience when operating the walk-behind tractor is provided by controlling the gearbox and transmission via the steering wheel, thanks to this the user does not have to bend over and spend a lot of effort.
Ease of adjusting speed and gear is due to the presence of a gear reducer.
Ergonomic steering handles of the unit significantly reduce vibration during operation. They are narrowed and easily rotate 180 degrees, which greatly simplifies their operation, especially when digging up root crops.
The cultivator can be used as a power source.
The Salyut-5 walk-behind tractors have solid rubberized wheels, which is also one of their advantages.

Assembling a walk-behind tractor

The steering column must be installed at the top of the gearbox and secured with the handle of the steering column. You should make sure that there are no strong kinks in the cable sheaths. Next, the handles are mounted on the steering column and secured with a clamp and bolt. It is necessary to tighten the clamping nut very carefully so that when the eccentric lever is fully rotated, it firmly secures the handlebars. Then the handle should be wrapped by hand and then tightened 2.5 turns. Make sure that it will not move under load.

The coulter bar is mounted on a support and secured with a bolt, nut and clamp. The support is secured with 2 pins. When assembling cutters for a walk-behind tractor and installing them on the gearbox shaft, it is important to consider the following points:

knives are mounted on square shaft flanges according to the instructions. Mounting knives on the washer side is unacceptable;
when installing cutters on the gearbox shaft, the cutting elements of the knives must penetrate the soil as the unit moves forward;
The cutters are installed on the gearbox shaft in place of the wheels. They are fixed on the shaft and bushings by axes inside the cutters, which are secured with spring clamps to prevent falling;
The tightening of fasteners is controlled and loose nuts are tightened. To prevent soil from falling onto the elements of the device during cultivation, it is recommended to set the shields to the maximum width;
The cutters installed on the motor-cultivator must be rotated by hand, making sure that their knives do not contact the gearbox housing and the beams of the device.

DIY repair

Repair of the Zubr walk-behind tractor may be needed for various reasons. You suddenly have strange smoke coming from the exhaust pipe, or the engine has stopped gaining the required power, or uncharacteristic sounds have appeared in the unit itself. All this is a reason to immediately turn off the car, let it cool and begin inspection and further repairs.

It often happens that strange sounds are associated with insufficiently tightened screws, so some part simply vibrates from work. If everything is tightly screwed in and there are no cracks, you need to look for the reason in something else.

The main advantage of Zubr walk-behind tractors is that they are easy to repair and you can always buy any new part. There will be a huge selection in the online store, in a regular store or in the spare parts market. It is only important to know the model of your car and select it based on this parameter.

If you decide to repair it yourself, then you should have a set of special tools, some skills and knowledge. For the rest, the instructions and the desire to get your equipment back into working order will help you.

Features of adjustment and operation

When using the Salyut-5 cultivator on different types of soil, it is necessary to select the appropriate rotation frequency of the cutters, the depth and width of the cultivation zone, as well as the position of the device control levers. If it is impossible to achieve the required processing depth, then you should adjust the depth of the coulter bar or remove 1 pair of cutters.

For ease of use of the cultivator, its handles can be adjusted in height. To do this, the device is placed in a lying position, in which you can loosen the clamp to raise or lower the handle to the optimal height. The speed of rotation of the cutters can be changed by rearranging the 4-groove pulley on the motor.

Attachments

The complete set of the walk-behind tractor, in addition to the unit itself, includes rubber wheels, cutters, a universal hitch, a step, a set of tools and spare parts, and instructions. Each owner of the Shtenli 1900 Pro has the opportunity to improve the unit by adding attachments to it.

It is advisable to equip such powerful and multifunctional agricultural machines as the Shtenli 1800 walk-behind tractor with a set of options. With the help of special attachments, the unit can be turned into a multifunctional mini-tractor that not only plows, but also sows, harvests and cultivates the territory.

The following devices are used for this:

Plows. To lift virgin soil and neglected areas, it is better to use single-body tools. Soft soil can be cultivated with plows with 2-4 shares. Before plowing overgrown areas, you need to clear them of grass and bushes.
Rotary mowers. Installed on the front bracket, attached to the power take-off shaft using a belt. The 2-blade mower covers a strip up to 140 cm wide, cutting grass and bushes. It is advisable to purchase a trailed rake as a kit for the mower.

Snow removal equipment. To combat dense snowdrifts, a rotary snow blower is used. It is better to remove fresh snow with a front blade or a rotary brush. Snow cleaning devices have a working width of 80-100 cm.
Drilling rigs. The power and weight of the unit is enough to drill holes with a diameter of up to 30 cm. Using drills of different sizes, you can make water wells, holes for posts, supports and seedlings.
Planting and harvesting kits. Potato planters and potato diggers help reduce the share of heavy manual labor. These tools lay tubers to a depth of up to 25 cm. Harvesting is carried out with a working width of 30 cm.

The power take-off shaft on the walk-behind tractor allows it to be used as a drive to drive stationary equipment. The unit provides rotational energy for the water pump, mulcher, electric generator and woodworking machine.

Shtenli walk-behind tractors can be used in conjunction with original additional tools, as well as equipment from other brands. Original components are represented by plows, hillers, cutters and grousers.

But the equipment is also operated with several auxiliary parts.

Adapter, trolleys and trailers. Equipment for transporting goods using walk-behind tractors is divided into classes based on the power of the devices themselves. Therefore, for heavy equipment the load capacity of the equipment can be half a ton, and for light devices it can be about 300 kg. The clutch is adjusted using a three-pin connecting piece, which is supplied with the equipment. The element is universal and therefore compatible with most components from other manufacturers.
Mower. Several types of this tool are offered for agricultural devices, so walk-behind tractors can work with rotary or disc mowers. Inventory is selected based on the purpose of the machine itself.
