Refueling the walk-behind tractor
The octane grade of gasoline must comply with the requirements of the operating manual. For imported motoblocks, it is usually recommended to use gasoline with an octane rating of at least 92. Fuel should be poured no higher than the lower edge of the neck, filling the tank too full can lead to leaks and a fire hazard.
Before each start, the machine is checked for fuel leaks. Detected leaks are eliminated.
Storing the walk-behind tractor
Manufacturers’ recommendations for gearbox and clutch oil may vary. Some recommend draining the oil when storing the walk-behind tractor, others. changing it to fresh.
Answers from users and forum experts to the question: Husqvarna uniaxial tractor does not start oil in the air filter
Unfortunately, it happens very often that oil turns out to be in the air filter of the walk-behind tractor and therefore it does not start, of course. But you can find out the reason why the oil is there without disassembling the walk-behind tractor. Most often this happens due to a too thick composition, when a lot of oil is added.
Gearbox (reducer)
The oil in the gearbox (gearbox) is changed every 100 hours of operation of the walk-behind tractor. Some manufacturers advise changing the oil after 50 hours of operation. When changing the oil, you must:
- Unscrew the oil filler plug (with a dipstick).
- Unscrew the drain plug and drain the oil into a substituted container within 15 minutes.
- Screw on the drain plug.
- Pour clean oil into the gearbox of the walk-behind tractor to the required level (with a dipstick check).
- Screw on the filler plug.

How to clean an air filter?
Many car owners are interested in whether it is possible to clean the air filter from contamination and how to do it. This issue does not have a high priority, because consumables of this type are inexpensive, and therefore everyone can afford to replace them. Nevertheless, there are those people who want to squeeze every last thing out of a consumable using various methods of extending its service life. Also, those who operate the car in difficult conditions are interested in this issue, which accelerates the clogging of the filter. Let’s consider if the paper air filter of a car can be washed and what are the ways to clean it. But it is worthwhile to immediately make a reservation that all cleaning methods lead to a temporary effect, and therefore you should not abuse it, since the consequences of dirty air in the combustion chambers can lead to disastrous consequences.
How to clean an air filter
In fact, there are no manufacturers’ recommendations on how to repair a car’s air filter. All of them as one insist on the need to replace the air filter when it gets dirty. However, many are not deterred and dry clean using a compressor or a regular vacuum cleaner. For this, the consumable is removed from the compartment in the engine compartment. It is necessary to turn the filter over and knock it on a hard surface so that large lumps of dirt fall out. Next, let’s look at how to clean a car air filter with a vacuum cleaner or compressor.
In the first case, the efficiency will be lower, because the vacuum cleaner cannot fully clean the paper surface due to the small power of the generated air flow. Can I clean my air filter more efficiently with a compressor?. Yes, it is more practical, because it creates a high pressure of the air flow, which allows you to remove a large amount of dirt from the surface of the paper. In both cases, do not touch the surface of the paper to avoid damaging it. If the filter element is accidentally damaged, it will not be able to fully perform its function. This procedure can be performed every week, and in some cases even necessary, because such cleaning is not as effective as we would like. Therefore, many are interested in whether it is possible to wash the engine air filter so that it will last for a longer period.
How to flush a car air filter
Despite the fact that manufacturers do not recommend restoring such parts, many will find out if the car air filter can be washed and try to return it to its previous state in this way. This is due to the fact that the effect of dry cleaning is temporary, because little dirt is blown off the surface of the paper by air flow. Let’s consider how to wash the air filter using special chemicals and common household detergents. Only flushing should be started with air cleaning by means of a vacuum cleaner or compressor. Otherwise, the dust will not be absorbed into the product, but will be converted into dirt. We discussed above how to clean the air filter by blowing.
Special cosmetics are applied to the surface of the paper and washed off after 10-15 minutes. During this time, the composition of the product will absorb impurities, which will be washed off along with it. Washing the air filter with household detergents takes longer. After dissolving dishwashing detergent or washing powder in water, place an air filter there for 30-40 minutes. After such a procedure, it must be washed well. Regardless of which product is chosen, it is recommended to let the washed paper dry naturally. Using a hair dryer can damage the surface that is not designed for thermal exposure. Finally, it is worth answering those who are interested in whether the air filter can be washed. This cannot be done because the paper will be damaged. Only gentle rinsing is possible without using a brush.
How to soak an air filter
To partially restore the functionality of such a product, it is not enough to rinse the air filter and dry it. It must be moisture-repellent so that water on the surface of the paper cannot affect its performance. For this, special impregnations in aerosol cans are offered on the market. It is enough to treat the peeled paper with such a tool, and it will acquire moisture resistance.
Now that we have looked at ways to clean the air filter, we should wonder if it is worth it. The specialists of our Oiler car services recommend abandoning the restoration work and replacing this consumable with a new one. You can order such a service in one of our car services on the company’s website or by phone.
How to flush the air filter of a walk-behind tractor
To ensure the safe and uninterrupted operation of a small-sized tractor for a long period of operation, it is necessary to carry out maintenance measures for its units and assemblies in accordance with the regulations.
It is not only about the timely replacement of oil in the units of the walk-behind tractor, regular inspection of engine systems and setting up control mechanisms. it is also important to service the air filter on time.
What is an air filter in a walk-behind tractor for?
The air filter of the motor cultivator engine cleans the air that enters the carburetor. When the filter element is filled with dust and dirt, its throughput is lost, which causes the mixture to become lean. Because of this, the operation of the engine is disrupted.
Note! A dirty air filter not only makes it difficult to start the engine, but also leads to a loss of power of the cultivator, increases gasoline consumption.
If the filter is damaged or missing, it may damage the unit.
The engines of most domestic and foreign motoblocks are equipped with an air filter made of foamed polyurethane (foam rubber). These filter elements reliably protect the carburetor and engine from dust and sand particles.
In the case of motor cultivators, this is especially important, since milling cutters and plows in the process of work lift a large amount of soil and sand into the air.
Filters made of ordinary foam rubber are easily washed with gasoline, they are quite durable, and they are relatively inexpensive (about 200-300 rubles).
Regardless of the manufacturer and brand of the walk-behind tractor, timely maintenance of the engine air filter prolongs the service life of the equipment.
Why in the walk-behind tractor throws gasoline on the air filter?
Very often, owners of motor cultivators with a 4-stroke engine face such a problem. gasoline gets into the air filter and the engine does not start. There may be several reasons for such an unexpected phenomenon.
The simplest is a clogged filter (due to dirt, it loses its throughput and causes a depletion of the mixture). To determine this, you need to remove the air filter and try to start the engine without it.
Often fills the filter of the walk-behind tractor with gasoline due to a malfunction of the needle shut-off valve in the carburetor.
In this case, the level has increased and fuel enters the filter through the air passages of the idle system. You can fix the problem by repairing / replacing the needle valve.
Remember that only with careful handling of equipment can you make its work highly productive and economical.!
How to maintain and clean the filter of the walk-behind tractor
Maintenance of the air filters of the motor cultivator engine should be carried out in accordance with the maintenance intervals specified by the manufacturer or as necessary if the equipment is operated in dusty conditions.
It is recommended to check the condition of the air filter every 5-8 hours of operation of the cultivator. After 20-30 hours of operation, the air filter must be cleaned (if damaged, replace it).
- Do I need to pour oil into the air filter of the walk-behind tractor? In most cases, simply soak the sponge element lightly with engine oil.
However, the air filters of some models of motor cultivators are in an oil bath. in this case, it is necessary to add oil to the level indicated on the oil bath.
- What kind of oil to fill in the air filter of the walk-behind tractor? For these purposes, it is recommended to use the same engine oil that is filled in the engine crankcase.
According to the generally accepted standard, the engine of the cultivator, as well as the air filter, uses engine oil for 4-stroke engines.
Depending on the season and ambient temperature, it is allowed to fill the engine with seasonal oils of grades 5W-30, 10W-30, 15W-40 or multigrade engine oils with a wider temperature range.
Consider the sequence of maintenance (cleaning) of the air filter of the engine of the MB-1 motoblock, the most popular in Russia and the countries of the former CIS:
- Remove the protective cover of the air filter by unscrewing the wing nut;
- Remove the porous air filter element (made of foam rubber) from the main paper element;
- Rinse the foam pre-cleaning element in gasoline, kerosene. If it is slightly dirty, it is enough to rinse the air filter of the walk-behind tractor with ordinary detergent. After that, the foam rubber must be carefully squeezed out, dried;
- Saturate the porous element with engine oil, squeeze the excess oil between two palms. In no case should the foam rubber be twisted. such actions can damage the filter element;
- Remove the dry element of the engine air filter;
- Rinse the dry element first in soapy water and then in lukewarm water. Paper filters can also be cleaned well with a vacuum cleaner and lightly tapping on a hard surface;
- Air dry the dry filter thoroughly. You do not need to saturate it with anything;
- Remove all dirt on the filter housing with a clean cotton cloth;
- Reassemble the air filter in reverse order, replace the protective cover.
- How do you know if the air filter needs replacing? This will become clear either by its appearance or by the behavior of the engine.
If the filter element has changed in size (from frequent washing in gasoline, the sponge swells over time) or damage has formed on it, it is necessary to replace the filter.
Homemade products turned a monkey into a human
After hibernation, it’s time for the walk-behind tractor to go out into the field.
The Honda engine started up after winter as usual from the 6th-8th pull of the rope, this is normal, because for a completely dry fuel system, the pump needs time to pump. Idling performance was stable and indistinguishable from the norm. But after warming up, adding gas, the revolutions did not grow, as if the air damper remained closed. The opened air filter surprised me, in a sealed top case, the paper element itself turned out to be completely wet and already overgrown with fluffy gray mold. Everything was also wet under the filter. It turns out that the case does not protect against condensation (when stored in the open air). But it is also strange why this did not happen in the past years of the same street storage, perhaps the winter was somehow different!
I had to make an unscheduled wash of the paper element.
In a small amount of water and a spoonful of washing powder heated over a fire to about 50 degrees.
Soak the filter and then rinse it intensively in the foam to flush out debris, dirt and dust. Then we rinse with running water.
For speed, we dry with a hair dryer, make sure that nothing melts or burns!
We put the filter in place, for better sealing of the case, I put gaskets from pieces of electrical wire, it’s just that the factory locks do not grip the rubber of the seal well enough and dust is sucked in!
A small video of the very process of washing the air filter.
Should be performed immediately after use. Use a garden hose to flush off soil and dirt. Remove grass, etc., from the rotor shaft. The number on the chassis should only be cleaned with a damp cloth, otherwise it can be easily damaged. Do not clean with high pressure water.
The first time the oil needs to be changed after the first five hours of operation, after that it needs to be changed only once a year.
You can also use the oil change pump kit.
During operation, vibrations may appear in the right handle. Therefore, it is recommended to take a break every 2 hours. Remember to dispose of used oil in an environmentally responsible manner. Oil and oil pump kit are not included.
