Assembling a tractor-breaker with your own hands is an interesting enough activity, but not everyone needs it. Basically, such equipment will be needed only for those who hold large-scale agriculture, where it is necessary to dig up large tracts of land, as well as plant a large number of crops.
Do-it-yourself tractor
When someone talks about assembling a tractor-do-it-yourself tractor, many people always imagine too complicated and often impossible work, especially for a home master, but today this is no longer the case. Moreover, today there are many variations of the assembly of the special mode of transport. Among them there are those assemblies that are quite capable of gathering as an experienced worker and a novice in this case.
To begin with, after making the decision to assemble the tractor-fracture with your own hands, it is worth considering its design, namely the frame. There are several basic frame assemblies. Firstly, these are the side members, which are distinguished by a three-stage assembled structure. Those steps that are located in front are assembled from channels of the tenth size, and the last from a square-shaped pipe, with sides 80 x 80 mm and from high-quality steel. Rear and front there is a traverse. The front is made of channel of the sixteenth size, and the rear of the twelfth. An identical system is also suitable for assembling cross members.
Implement clutch
When assembling a tractor-do-it-yourself tractor, you should pay attention to the engine, whose power should be suitable for the performance of the tasks. Quite often, the choice is limited to a 4-cylinder engine with water cooling, as well as diesel fuel. As for the transfer case and gearbox, it can be taken from the unnecessary VAZ-53, but the clutch for the tractor tractor 4 4 is best taken from the VAZ-52.
Quite a lot of work remains to be done in order to dock the basket and the power unit of the device to do the engine flywheel, as well as to make a new casing for the basket. This is necessary in order to properly adjust it to the desired size for the tractor-perelomki.
Wheelbase
As for this aspect of tractor assembly, it is very important. Here, of course, you can simply install disc wheels from an ordinary passenger car, but experts recommend that you take measured steps in this direction and start with 14 inches.
If you take smaller disks, then there is a rather high risk of problems with movement in the future. It is worth noting here that it is very important that a makeshift mini tractor-tractor does not fall into the ground while driving. However, wheels that are too large are also not recommended. The problem lies in the fact that it is quite difficult to make maneuvers and generally drive a vehicle that has huge wheels.
The advantage of “breaking” frames and tools
In order to significantly increase the maneuverability of such a vehicle, it is possible to install hydraulic control on it. You can find suitable hydraulics using the equipment that has been decommissioned.
In addition to hydraulics, on the maneuverability greatly affects Scrap frame. A frequently asked question about how to make a tractor-do-it-yourself tractor means just creating a tractor with such an unusual frame, which is its main feature. Such a frame greatly increases the maneuverability of technology. However, along with this, you need to understand that the assembly will become more complicated, since it will be necessary to construct a very high-quality and reliable shaft with strong and strong joints.
In the manufacture of such a design is good and required assistants are universal joints that need to be removed from the truck. As for, for example, the front wheels, the drum brake, which is installed on cars, is perfect. In general, if we talk about the necessary spare parts, then many of them will have to be removed from other cars.
As for the required tools that are required for assembly, they are as follows: welding machine and drill, wrench, disk plate and some others.
Assembling the control system and seat
With regard to the seat of the tractor, you can use a normal car seat. Installation of the vehicle control system and its kinematic scheme begins after the undercarriage is designed. An important role here is played by the proper seating position. At this stage, it is also recommended to correctly calculate and install the steering wheel to control the tractor. It is very important to choose the right height, so that the hands do not get tired during operation. At the same time, the height should be such that the discomfort was not only for the hands, but also for the knees and legs, and therefore it should not be set too low either.
Powertrain and assembly
After the chassis is assembled and the control is implemented along with the kinematic scheme, you can go to a rather important part - the installation of the engine for a tractor with a breaking frame. In order to carry out high-quality installation of such heavy equipment, which, moreover, constantly vibrates during operation, it is necessary to use a special plate, which has grooves for attaching the power plant. The necessary rigidity will also be obtained for the chassis, if you use this plate. After installing this unit, you can proceed to the laying of all mechanical and electrical control circuits. As for the skin of the body, there is every manufacturer can do whatever he needs, in his personal opinion.
As for the assembly technology, it is worth thinking about it at the initial stage, since the mini-tractor can be created for different purposes, and therefore its additional equipment can change. Possible installation of mowing machines, milling cutters, etc.
As for the arrangement of breaking the frame, everything can be described simply. A walk-behind tractor is required, which is located on a frame mounted manually.
General assembly tips
It is worth mentioning why many people themselves get down to business. The price of a mini-tractor for a household of this type starts from 40 thousand rubles and can reach up to 100 thousand rubles. It is clear that the amount is large enough, and therefore to make it with your own hands is a tempting idea.
Therefore, there are some general tips. For example, if the Neva model is selected as a motoblock, it is best to purchase it immediately with a hitch, since in this case it will be possible to transport goods and a trailer with a body.
Quite often, the centaur motor-block is chosen as the basis , which is diesel and has a power of 9 hp.
The price of a mini-tractor for a household is clearly much higher than the cost of a conventional walk-behind tractor, and many components can be removed from an old passenger car, for example. Therefore, many owners and recourse to such an assembly machine with their own hands.
