Testimonial: Motoblock gasoline Hoper 900 - One of our most successful and necessary acquisitions.
Buying a walk-behind tractor is by no means self-indulgence, and it is simply necessary if:
- you have a fairly large plot; - you have few men in your family, and digging up the earth with shovels is too long a process; - the earth dries out unevenly in the spring (it's like with us - the top of the garden is already ready for processing, and the bottom is still very wet - that's all agricultural work is slowing down!)
We bought our Khoper three years ago in winter, because in winter such equipment becomes much cheaper. We have no need for a cultivator, so we chose an ordinary gasoline walk-behind tractor at a fairly budget price:
I really hope that my husband will never think of using a walk-behind tractor as a vehicle (they probably saw craftsmen who hook trailers to walk-behind trailers - and go), then I just laugh.
I am for the intended use, that is, for plowing. And plowing is carried out using two side mills with a diameter of 35 cm, which are put on instead of wheels:
and the plow itself:
Let's turn to the technical specifications.
The dimensions of the walk-behind tractor are 130X55X110 cm, and most of all in them we are strained by the "wingspan" - in order to drive Khoper into the shed, we have to remove one of them, although the door is not small in width. Well, where without them? - the work is quite dusty, and the engine does not like dust:
If you do not pay attention to this inconvenience, then, in principle, you still cannot call it a large-sized colossus:
Nevertheless, this "baby" weighs as an adult - 74 kg (net). It will be hard for a woman (especially if the ground is loose - the plow is buried, sometimes the walk-behind tractor has to be rocked).
About the engine: - four-stroke single-cylinder, with forced air cooling - standard for motoblocks (although there are also diesel ones). To be direct powerful - I will not say 6.5 liters. with. Of course, there are two-cylinder ones with a large number of horses, but they also cost an order of magnitude more (there was one in the store, domestic, for 60 thousand).
The engine is located at the top obliquely:
In general, when we were just thinking about buying a walk-behind tractor, the engine interested us not in the least. And to be honest, we have never heard of a 168 F-2Q type engine (Chinese) (my husband is an auto mechanic, and my education and work experience allows me to talk about the topic). But the price was too tempting, and the guarantee was given for a year. The engine has not failed so far (by the way, the neighbor's domestic engine was covered in a year). We, too, not everything is perfect - the engine shutdown button quickly went out of order, we have to close it to ground. We refuel the 92nd gasoline (on the advice of the seller), the oil seems to be expensive, on the one hand, (300 rubles per liter is a special one, for four-stroke engines), but on the other hand - we filled it one - the very first time - and more is not required yet). He also doesn't eat a lot of gasoline, plowing 10 acres of three liters twice. The starter is manual, it does not work immediately, you have to pull three times:
The fuel tank is small, 3.6 liters:
Neck with stop:
But these home-grown technologies always piss me off (I mean "crazy hands" - homemade funnels and all that):
It is very convenient that almost all instructions for use are displayed on the case. I post three photos - but he is all in those. characteristics, safety techniques, notes, reminders, etc.:
Milling cutter and plow mountings are very solid, their strength is beyond doubt. To remove the wheel and put on the cutter, the walk-behind tractor has to be tilted - we do this together with my husband. It is not hard to keep the walk-behind tractor in an inclined state with an emphasis on one wheel, the replacement takes literally 5 minutes:
In principle, everything is ready, you can plow. You have to plow twice in the spring, and one is enough in the fall (after the harvest, the soil is already exploded):
After two such spring passes, the shovel goes into the ground just on the bayonet:
As for the noise, it is not more than that of other models and manufacturers. Thus, it takes us about 40 minutes to process 10 acres. So if the money does not allow you to take an expensive walk-behind tractor, then take a closer look at this model - with us it has proven itself just wonderful!
Py. Sy. How to collect petals. Are the petals cutters? If so, here are the explanations with the photo on the left mill:

The blunt side is from the mount, the sharp one is inclined to the ground (it cuts into it):
Externally, the cutter should look like this:

Major malfunctions
Malfunctions are inevitable in the operation of any walk-behind tractor. Further, we will consider the main types of malfunctions in the "Hoppers" and possible ways to eliminate them on our own. If the malfunction is serious and your knowledge is not enough to eliminate it, contact a specialized repair center or service (with a valid warranty).
Reducer
The main problems with the gearbox and how to fix them:
- noise in the gearbox (check the oil mark, top up; do not use poor quality oil);
- oil leak from the gearbox (check the condition of the oil seals, eliminate the gap, adjust the oil level, filling it to normal, but not above the mark on the neck).
Clutch
The main grip problems on the Hopper:
- the clutch slips (check and replace worn springs and discs);
- hard to switch speeds (disassemble the gearbox, grind the teeth of the gears, replace worn parts);
- the clutch does not completely disengage (the friction discs may be deformed, replace them, pour fresh oil into the crankcase);
- The walk-behind tractor does not start (perhaps it is the air temperature - the frost is too strong. In this case, try to start the walk-behind tractor at a positive temperature, for example, in the garage, and then take it out to work in the yard).
Other malfunctions
Other malfunctions include:
- increased vibration during work;
- smoke of different colors when the engine is running.
Such problems are most often caused by improper adjustment of the attachment (vibration), as well as low-quality fuel and oil out of season, oil leakage. Before operation, make sure that the walk-behind tractor is in good working order and ready to work.
