Operating instructions for the Carver MT-650 walk-behind tractor

Break-in, the first launch of Carver walk-behind tractors

For a better lapping of the main units and mechanisms, the Carver walk-behind tractor should be run in correctly. Cars go on sale without oil in the engine and gearbox. Therefore, before running in, the unit is filled with fuel, transmission and engine oil. Then they start, warm up the engine for 10 minutes. This is followed by testing the operation of different gears, attachments in a gentle mode, no more than 2/3 of the power. After 10 hours, the run-in is considered complete.

Major malfunctions, repair

Carver walk-behind tractors are distinguished by a rational, well-thought-out device and reliability. Malfunctions that occur during operation can often be caused due to non-observance of elementary operating rules. If the engine does not start, there may be no gasoline in the tank or it is of poor quality, the fuel valve is closed, or the ignition is not turned on.

A clogged air filter and low oil level can cause the engine to stall after starting.Incorrect installation may cause the cutters to rotate when the clutch is disengaged. Defects and malfunctions in operation can be avoided if the recommendations of the manufacturer's instructions are followed. Competent maintenance of the Carver walk-behind tractor is the key to its durable operation.

Each type of equipment is unique in its own way and is adapted for a certain kind of tasks.

What it is?

First, a little theory. The Carver brand belongs to the Perm manufacturing enterprise Uraloptinstrument, which became widely known about 10 years ago, when it launched the production of garden equipment. Perm walk-behind tractors are characterized by decent quality, simple and understandable design, replaceability of main units and parts, as well as a democratic price.

The basic equipment of the walk-behind tractor allows you to loosen the earth, while simultaneously removing weeds from it. Moreover, the functional features of the unit make it possible to transform it into a mini-tractor with a wide range of possibilities. Carver products are capable of handling many of the challenging tasks often faced by homeowners and smallholders. The power shaft together with the coupling can be aggregated with any types of attachments and trailed additional equipment, both domestic and foreign production. Consumers have noticed that the engine works perfectly even on low-quality oil and fuel without losing its operational properties.

The motoblock is adapted to the Russian climate and can work in any weather conditions - the efficiency of the unit is the same both at low and high temperatures. The volume of the fuel tank is quite large, so the installation can work continuously for a long time without the need for refueling.

With a very solid weight, the walk-behind tractor is very compact and ergonomic. It takes up very little space, so it can be transported in the trunk of any car, and even stored on the balcony. At the same time, the unit is quite maneuverable - it passes between bushes and trees without any problems. On bumps, the technique behaves quite steadily, moreover, it has a small parking support, which, when interacting with trailers, can be replaced with a third wheel.

All control mechanisms of the system are located on the handle. The handlebar itself can be adjusted in width and height to make the operator's job as easy as possible. The operator's work is completely safe, since a person is reliably protected from stones from under the wheels and clods of earth with special wings made of plastic. All major components and mechanisms are covered with leather, and the gearbox housing is made of extra strong materials, thereby minimizing the risk of damage in case of mechanical collisions.

The cost of Carver walk-behind tractors is considered one of the lowest in Russia at the moment, and the quality does not suffer from this at all. Users claim that buying a Carver walk-behind tractor with a set of spare parts and additional elements is a profitable purchase today. The technique can pay off in just a season as the product is used almost every day, reducing the need for manual labor.

Land cultivation

Most often, walk-behind tractors Cayman Vario, Patriot Ural, Texas, Foreman, Viking, Forza, Patriot are purchased for cultivating the land. In most motoblocks, cutters are installed instead of wheels, but on some models they have a separate drive.

Cultivation is a highly productive cultivation process that combines loosening of the soil with the destruction of weed roots, but only on dry soil. When working on wet soil, the cutter becomes clogged with clods and cannot grind it.

Also, when cultivating the land with a cutter, a certain skill and the correct choice of the operating mode are required so that the processing proceeds at a constant depth and the cutter is not pushed out or buried.

As a rule, an overdrive is used if the engine power is enough to pull the walk-behind tractor on it with the selected working width. Most medium-sized motoblocks with 6.5 horsepower gasoline engines allow for one pass capture an area wide up to 120 centimeters.

Land cultivation

For the processing of heavy soils, a plow is traditionally used, which, when broaching, lifts and turns the layers of earth outward. Unlike cultivation, which is carried out in high gear, plowing is done in the lowest gear, as it requires significant effort.

For successful plowing, high-quality grip of the walk-behind tractor wheels with the ground is necessary, therefore, welded wheels with large lugs are often used for this. Especially popular are designs whose rims are made of several hoops, since they are not clogged with earth.

When plowing with a plow, it is important to correctly adjust its share - this also applies to the angle of attack (if it is installed incorrectly, the plow will burrow into the ground or strive to go out), and the width of the share - the optimal position of its right edge should be in the same plane with the inner edge of the right wheel. Thus, when passing, it forms an even furrow, distributing the soil to neighboring boletus

Thus, when passing, it forms an even furrow, distributing the soil to neighboring boletus.

More productive designs are hillers with two plowshares and disc hillers, the knives of which look like rotating discs.

Features of use

An important factor for extending the service life of the cultivators of TM "CARVER" is the timely maintenance.

The instructions for use provide a table according to which maintenance is carried out, including such operations as changing the oil, replacing the air filter, spark plugs, adjusting the clearances between the valve stem and the pusher, tensioning the belts, etc.

The engine oil is changed while the engine is still warm, because otherwise not all of the lubricant will leak out. A container is placed under the drain neck, the plug is turned out and the oil is drained by gravity.

Fill in new lubricant only according to the manufacturer's recommendation: SAE 80W-90, SAE 85W-90 or equivalent.

Preparation for long-term storage

If you plan not to use the walk-behind tractor for a long time, adhere to the following storage rules:

1. The fuel must be drained.
2. Clean the machine from dirt and adhering grass.
3. Remove the spark plug and fill with 15 ml of engine oil, then reinstall the spark plug.
4. Pull starter until resistance is felt. Continue pulling until the mark on the starter pulley lines up with the hole in the casing.
5. Wipe all unpainted surfaces with a cloth slightly dampened with oil. This will prevent corrosion from occurring.
6. Cover the walk-behind tractor from dust.
7. Store in a dry and ventilated area.

Trouble-shooting

Running in

The cycle of procedures that are necessary for the successful operation of the walk-behind tractor is called running-in. It is carried out, as a rule, after purchase, while the walk-behind tractor is new, or after long-term storage of the unit.

The manufacturer strongly recommends running in according to all the rules without neglecting it, since at this time the engine parts and large units of the unit are lapped.

• Start the engine at idle speed, Leave it to run for 20 minutes.
• After a while, carry out a progassing, which is carried out by squeezing out the maximum speed. Passing should not last more than 20 seconds.
• Work in this mode for 4 hours, alternately changing idle speed and gas flow.
• For the next 4 hours, you can use the walk-behind tractor, but without attachments. The manufacturer offers to attach the wheels and ride the walk-behind tractor.
• After running in for 8 hours, drain all oil and replace with new one.
