We continue the actual summer cottage theme. We have previously presented ratings of the best electric lawn mowers and petrol trimmers. Today we will talk about motoblocks.

The range of tasks of the device — weeding, cultivation, hilling, plowing, planting potatoes, mowing grass, transporting goods, pumping water, garbage and snow removal. Not all walk-behind tractors are so multifunctional — it all depends on the configuration and the possibility of acquiring and connecting additional attachments.

When choosing a walk-behind tractor, pay attention to the type of engine, power, transmission device, width and depth of tillage. These criteria should be directly related to the area and type of surface to be treated in the future.

But all this is just the tip of the iceberg, and it will not be easy to understand everything in detail, from scratch. We have a better offer. Check out this rating and choose the option that best suits your individual needs.. All rating models are tested by experts, have a high level of reliability, and are durable. For maximum objectivity in the distribution of seats, we took into account user reviews.

Table of participants in the rating of gasoline walk-behind tractors in 2022

PATRIOT Ural 440107581

Opens my TOP PATRIOT Ural 440107581. The heart of the model is a 7.8 horsepower (hp) 4-stroke extended life engine and a cast iron chain reducer. The frame design facilitates the transportation of the walk-behind tractor and protects the engine, muffler and gas tank. Number of gears — 4 speeds forward and 2 reverse. The width and depth of tillage — 90 and 30 cm, respectively (6 cutters) — is inferior to most of the competitors in the rating, respectively, it is not suitable for large volumes of work — you will have to make more passes.

Large pneumatic wheels provide excellent flotation. It is possible to install auxiliary hinged elements, but the manufacturer has little choice of them, and it is not always rational to resort to the help of third-party companies, there are different types of fasteners — refinement will be required. Price — 58,000 rubles.

The model is not without flaws. The motor block itself is reliable, durable, but not everything is going smoothly with the frame and other main elements — welded apparatus for C grade. Given the high price, we can give it only 6th place, for example, other models in the rating will not require refinement and overcooking during operation, plus they will also save the budget.

For small volumes of work (area of ​​cultivated land up to 40 acres), ZUBR MTB-300 and Denzel DPT-270 are suitable. For large plots of more than 1 ha, you should choose powerful walk-behind tractors — Hyuter MK-9500 or CHAMPION BC1193.

Neva MB2-B&S (CR950)

In fifth place is Neva MB2-B&S (CR950). The largest domestic manufacturer of small agricultural equipment offers an improved version of the model tested by hundreds of users. Powered by 208cc Briggs&Stratton CR950 4-stroke petrol engine³ with a capacity of 6.5 liters. With. The number of gears is 4 forward and 2 reverse. For a convenient turn, the separation of the wheelset is provided. The most simple, reliable design: a power take-off shaft, a pulley and a chain reducer — the torque is transmitted to the drive axle through a chain.

The only disadvantage of this design is intolerance to excessive loads.. For hard, unprepared soil (that has not undergone primary tillage), it is better not to use such. Processing width — 126 cm, depth — 20 cm. The set includes 8 cutters with a rotation speed of 160 rpm. With their help, you can perform all types of land cultivation. When buying and installing additional attachments, planting / digging potatoes, removing snow and debris, mowing grass, transporting goods, chopping branches are available.

Price — 73,000 rubles. 88% of Yandex Market users recommend. Stop factor — price: it is clearly too high for a model that is suitable for the characteristics of processing small and medium crop areas. All other claims of the owners are subjective. By the way, by the noise (ringing).

The problem lies in the side protection stop limit tube, it does not match the diameter of the landing rod. It is solved by replacing the tube with a narrower one. Such a flaw, taking into account the price tag, is unacceptable, so the model occupies only the 5th line.

ZUBR MTB-300

The fourth line is occupied by ZUBR MTB-300. Another walk-behind tractor of domestic production. Equipped with a cast-iron gear-chain gearbox with a hardened 23 mm hex axle. It differs from previous rating models in a small number of gears — 2 forward and 1 back. The power of the 4-stroke motor is 7 liters. with., which, when installing additional equipment, allows the device cope with the widest range of tasks in small and medium-sized areas (up to 1 ha).

The main functionality is implemented using 6 complete cutters with a rotation speed of 113 rpm. A feature is deep processing (up to 35 cm), but the capture width is noticeably smaller than that of a competitor — 85 cm. Price — 41,000 rubles.

Users most often complain about small wheels, incomprehensible assembly instructions and strong vibration.. All this hardly significantly affects the quality of work. Dull knives and low-quality tires are more of an isolated case of marriage than a rule. All identified shortcomings cover the reliability and durability, which is confirmed by a 5-year warranty. manufacturer and positive user reviews. 87% recommend to buy. We join, considering this model as one of the best for plots up to 1 ha.

CHAMPION BC1193

The top three is opened by CHAMPION BC1193. One of the most powerful walk-behind tractors in the ranking. In 2nd gear it produces up to 9 liters. With. 3 gears in total: two forward and one reverse. The walk-behind tractor is equipped with a powerful four-stroke Champion G270HK engine with a cast-iron cylinder liner and an overhead valve system.

Disc clutch — torque is transmitted «directly» from the engine to the walk-behind tractor — simply and reliably. Width and depth of processing — 110 and 30 cm, respectively. Includes 8 cutters. The model is distinguished by excellent cross-country ability due to large wheels and a large tread pattern. Price — 68 500 rubles.

Reliable walk-behind tractor with high power for processing large areas, even unplowed land. User complaints relate to the price and quality of additional attachments. For tillage with complete cutters, this is a great idea. However, for these purposes, the Huter MK-9500 is no less well suited, while it costs much less.

Huter MK-9500

In second place Huter MK-9500. The most powerful model in the ranking is 9.5 liters. With. Transmission type is similar to ZUBR MTB-300. The chain and gear system provides switching between 3 gears — 2 forward and 1 reverse. A feature of the model is large pneumatic wheels with an aggressive wedge-shaped tread pattern, which makes it possible to eliminate slippage when cultivating any type of soil.

Processing width — 115 cm, depth — 32, these are one of the best indicators in the ranking. Includes 8 cutters. It is possible to install additional attachments to expand the functionality. The price is 51,000 rubles.

Large area model. Power leader. 85% of Yandex Market users recommend and we join. But for processing small areas, we recommend that you look at cheaper models. You can save up to 10,000 rubles without losing quality and functionality, for example, when choosing Denzel DPT-270.

Denzel DPT-270

Denzel DPT-270 Stud Leader. Compact unit of average power of 7 liters. With. from a German manufacturer. Reducer type — gear-chain. Three-speed transmission — 2 speeds forward and one reverse. The model differs from competitors:

• relatively low noise level — 104 dB.
• Economy. Fuel consumption — 1 l / h.
• The quality of materials and assembly. The crankshaft is made of steel hardened to a hardness of 45-50 HRC, cutters made of the same steel have an anti-corrosion coating.
• Ergonomics. Easy control — the speed regulator and the ignition switch are located on the handles, which are at an optimal distance from each other, have rubberized tips.
• Accurate centering — the walk-behind tractor weighs more than 60 kg, but it keeps its balance perfectly, it is easy to manage even for an inexperienced user.

Comes with 6 cutters. The width and depth of processing are 85 and 35 cm. There are more interesting models in width. The main competitor Huter MK-9500 captures 115 cm at once.

The only but — this walk-behind tractor is not suitable for processing large areas of virgin land. To do this, you should take more powerful models, for example, Huter MK-9500 or CHAMPION BC1193.
