Plow for the Neva MB-2 power tiller: how to adjust, installation and adjustment, which one is better
In order to grow a healthy and tasty crop on a plot of land, it is necessary, at least once a year, to plow and plow the established surface layer of soil. If it is a small patch. half the trouble, but in the case of areas of dozens of acres, then you already need a power tiller. You hitch a plow to it, and the work gets done much faster.
Such attachments are sold in specialized stores of agricultural equipment and implements. The plowing device can fit simultaneously to different models of the same or different manufacturing plants. It would seem that there is nothing easier than to attach a device to a power tiller and start plowing. This is not enough, you must still properly set up and prepare the plough for work.
Use a plow together with a power tiller to save time
How to choose a plough and tillers for the power tiller Neva
In addition to a good cultivator, the farmer will need to buy various additional attachments, which are also available in a wide range, so everyone will be able to pick up the necessary mechanism, from the plow and tillers and ending with a trailer and snow blower.
Let’s look at the varieties of plow and tillers on such a popular power tiller among consumers as the Neva.
Neva MB-1 single-axle tractor is equipped with American Briggs Stratton RS950 engine with 6.5 liters of power.с., or Japanese Subaru EXR16 with 6 liters.с. Suitable for sandy, sandy loam and sandy loam soil treatment, can be used for goods transportation and grounds cleaning. Provides the option to use a plow, tiller, and other attachments. On this motocultivator it is desirable to buy a support wheel, the presence of which will facilitate the work on loosening the soil, because it will not allow “bury” the unit in the ground. For its weight of 70 kg it is quite maneuverable and high quality machine.
Neva MB-2 has a mass of 98 kg, as an additional equipment it has an electric starter and a headlight. The included cutters consist of 8 mechanisms.
MB-23 is the most powerful machine, which is included in this group of power tillers. Its mass of 105 kg allows to perform the heaviest works with a plough.
MB-23SD. a modification of the previous model, but with the weight of 115 kg and capacity, depending on the installed engine. Complete set includes power tillers and plough.
The Neva with Multi-AGRO gearbox, which has a greater number of gears, the engine has less power, but it handles traction functions perfectly, it has a smaller turning radius, the body of the walking tractor has internal ribs.
MB-1 is equipped with either a Japanese Honda engine of 5.8 liters.с., Or American Briggs Stratton with a capacity of 6 and 6.5 liters.с. Has 1 reverse and 3 forward gears.
MB-2 is equipped with Briggs Stratton or Honda 6,5 or 5,8 l engine.с.
Every Neva power tiller described above can be fitted with a plough, milling machines and other attachments.
Types of plows
Ploughs are divided into several types, some have a more complex design, but each has unique differences, both in operation and visually. Types of plows: 1. Single tine and double tine. 2. Rotary (reversible). 3. Rotary (rotary). 4. With dozer blade or without dozer blade. The two-hoe plow is assembled independently in most cases for a tractor or mini-tractor, since these agricultural machines have more horses than any single-axle tractor. However, there are craftsmen who make a two-hulled device with a rotary mechanism on their own, just for a power tiller. But the swiveling plow differs in its construction from the typical two-hulled model.
Rotary or reversible plow. this design allows you to save on fuel by not having to idle backwards when plowing. After each passage of the strip, the construction turns on its axis, this occurs in manual mechanical mode.
There is also a slatted reversible plow, has an unusual shape and size of the ploughshare, and the mouldboard, in fact, is a lattice plate. This type of plough has both pluses and minuses. The disadvantages should include, first, the weight of the plow will increase, and secondly, its design is a little more complicated, therefore, more experience is needed in its creation than in the assembly of a single-hulled plow. On the positive side, it saves time and money.
The model of a rotary plough is absolutely different from other types, both in its design and operating principle, as well as in its ease of use and quality of plowing. over, when using a rotary plow for a power tiller, complex areas are treated: curves, dead ends, areas where conventional plow designs remain helpless. It is very convenient for plowing on private small plots.
Shaft and no-shaft variants
The mouldboard plough turns and loosens the soil. this is the classic version. Shoeless plough is designed for loosening, mainly used in dry regions, where the land is hard.
The mouldboard is the top part of the plough that is tightly joined to the share. Its task is to cut layer of soil from the furrow wall, loosen, shift sideways and turn upward the lower layer. The quality of plowing depends on this element, the moldboard itself is conditionally divided into two parts: 1. Shinbone. 2. Shoal wing. It is the length and angle of the wing that will determine how the plow will turn the soil. If necessary, the length of the wing is made longer, adding in addition, the so-called “feather”. The lower part of the plough is called ploughshare. this is the main working element, it is desirable to make it of good quality steel. These two elements are the basis of the plow, and the place of connection between them (bolt heads in the sweat,) as well as the working surface itself, should be without protrusions. smooth. A single-hulled plow for a motor-block is quite suitable for independent performance. We will give you one popular option with some drawings and instructions, which will help make the unit with their own hands even a novice in such matters.
How to properly adjust the plow
Thanks to the fact that you make a plow with their own hands, opens up the possibility to adjust the dimensions of the ploughshare and mouldboard to all the parameters you need. You can easily adjust the width or depth of the plow depending on what work is to be done in the field, vegetable garden and garden. You can also adjust the parameters of the plow to match the power of your tractor (or single axle tractor). This allows you to use the assembled machine to its maximum usefulness, avoiding overheating or breakage of traction equipment.
- Retighten the nuts on the mountings, but do not overtighten.
- Fix the plow to the mount with two metal pins.
- Do the balancing, adjusting the angle.
- Check the quality of the plough’s work in the field, and, if necessary, correct the initially set parameters.
Remember that a scrupulous and precise setting will allow you to do all the necessary front work much faster and more efficiently with less fuel!
Can the plough dig potatoes?
Many experienced agrarians use a plough to harvest potatoes. So they simplify their life substantially, getting rid of the need to dig hundreds or even thousands of potato tubers. The only question is what kind of plough to dig potatoes with?
For this purpose, special plows with deep clearing of blades are used. But with this method it is extremely important to take into account the depth at which the potatoes grow. Otherwise, you risk losing a certain percentage of the harvested product. To avoid unpleasant consequences, the plough needs to be adjusted for the given conditions.
Making a reversible plough yourself will make your life easier during gardening work for years to come. And having mastered the business of manufacturing and selling this unit, you will also certainly find a steady income. It’s time to start your own business!
Instructions for building a plough
Making a frame. For this, we take a steel tube of size 5240 mm with a wall thickness of approximately 7 mm. Having cut the wide opposite walls of the frame, we make a fork.
Then make a centre mark on the frame for later mounting of the cross beam and the spring struts for attaching the drawbar. The hole in the front part of the frame must be carefully welded.
Fix the plough leg. For this purpose, in a wide piece of pipe used in the manufacture of the frame, we drill through holes measuring 3,11,6 cm. The size of holes in the narrow frame walls for installing the handle should not exceed 1.02 cm. Make the handles from a tube that is 0.5 inches in diameter.
Make the hitch. This is an important part of the plough. It ensures a good fixation to the tiller. The most popular is U-shaped channel mount, installed under the steering wheel. When making this element we need to make holes for mounting the bracket and fixing pins.
First we make a ploughshare. Here it would be appropriate to use an old circular saw blade. For sharpening the cutting part of the ploughshare you can use the anvil.
Then we make a 0,6 m square steel pipe and use it for the dozer blade. For this we take cardboard or paper. We make a template from them, attach it to the pipe and trace. Then cut it out with a welder. The finished mouldboard is machined with emery board or angle grinder.
Assemble plough. Requires steel sheet of area 0.25 square. м. All parts from the side plate to the share have to be welded to it. The work should be done particularly carefully. Next, we take a hammer and chisel, and detach the metal sheet, which was used for welding.
Then all that is left is to clean up the seams, sand the mouldboard and share, and paint the whole structure. These measures will give the plow aesthetic and increase its life.
The plow for the motor-block with his own hands drawings
Proceeding from the experience of people who made a plough for motoblock with their own hands and drawings, you need to make a ploughshare removable, to sharpen it before plowing.
The best material for the manufacture of the cutting part of the plow for power tillers. alloy steel 9HS, going to the discs of circular saws.
Steel 45 is also suitable, which is brought to hardness HRC 50-55 by hardening. If you only have ordinary steel, such as carbon steel St.5, not subject to heat treatment, it, too, can be adapted for cutting layer of earth, beating off the cutting edge of a cold plough the anvil, and then sharpening it.
Plow blade for power tiller
moldboard making method Working surface of the moldboard should be given a cylindrical shape. If there are sheet bending rollers, it is not difficult to give the desired shape to the workpiece.
To achieve this, the moldboard blank, cut by gas or electric welding (or scissors) of steel sheet thickness of 3-4 mm, fed into the rollers at an angle of 20 °-23 °, she bent and then hammer to give the desired shape on the template.
the drawing of the plow mouldboard from a sheet of steel 3mm
Blank for the blade can be a steel tube with a diameter of 550-600 mm and a wall thickness of 4-5 mm. Firstly made of thick cardboard moldboard template, then the template is attached to the pipe so that the lower form of the moldboard template makes with a cylindrical pipe forming an angle of 20-23 °.
The moldboard outline is drawn with chalk, then it is cut out by gas welder and grinded. If necessary, the shape of the blade is finished with a hammer on the available template.
Shape of plough mouldboard made of pipe with diameter of 550-600 mm and wall thickness of 4-5 mm
The most time-consuming way to get a moldboard is to put it into the furnace for heating (or heating it in another way). Then the billet is bent along the matrix, as which the mouldboard from another plough can be taken.
Material for plough body is steel sheet of St3 grade.3-Ct.10 with a thickness of 3 mm.
- a. a ploughshare made of alloy steel;
- b. side board of stand, St3;
- c. spacer plate, St3;
- d. plough base plate, St3;
- e. field board, angle 30×30 mm;
- f. outrigger, 42 mm diameter pipe
First of all we recommend to make plough parts out of cardboard, and glue them together using proper angles. So, values of angle alpha on different parts of the plough body will make from 25° to 130°, values of angle gamma. from 42° to 50°. If the homemade model of the cardboard plough satisfied you in all respects, feel free to begin work with the metal.
When the steel parts of the plough are made, to assemble the body you will need an auxiliary sheet of steel 2-3 mm thick with dimensions of 500×500 mm, and a welding machine. On the supplementary sheet with indent from the edges 40 mm is laid out the angle γ0.
Assembly of the plough
Using wedges with an angle of α0=25°, a ploughshare is mounted on the auxiliary sheet and is spot-welded to the sheet on both sides.
Side plate is docked with ploughshare in vertical position so that its edge goes behind the edge of the plough 5-8 mm, thus side plate must be higher than blade of ploughshare (that is above auxiliary sheet) on 6-10 mm not to interfere with ploughshare to undercut the ground. The shield is also lightly welded to the share and auxiliary sheet.
Then the mouldboard is applied to the coulter as tightly as possible without any gap, so that their surfaces are one piece. The angle between the upper edge of the mouldboard and the share blade is (γmax. γ0) = 6-8°.
Ploughshare mounting
If it is found that the angles and/or surfaces do not match, the mouldboard is refinished with a hammer. After adjusting the mouldboard to the share, it is welded to both the share and the side plate from behind. Then the side plate is welded to the spacer and bottom plate. To the last one the brackets for the share are welded.
The plough is inspected and welded again, with the auxiliary sheet used to assemble the plough separated from its body with a chisel or “angle grinder” with a cutting disc. The share’s brackets are welded to the base plate. Then all welds are spot cleaned and the share and mouldboard surfaces are sanded.
Rotary plough on a single axle tractor: advantages of the machine
It has the most advanced shape for plowing virgin, weed-covered areas to a depth of about 30 cm. Rotary homemade ploughs include:
A single-axle tractor used for this implement should have a reliable PTO shaft. It is he who drives the axle, and it is he who drives the plowshares.
Rotary plows on a single-axle tractor in homemade version are most often found with disc mechanisms. But also known as drum, shovel and auger plows. Indispensable when seeding fertilizers and fighting weeds.
A disc plough with its own hands
Single axle tractor mounted disc plow or single axle plow. special device used for tillage before planting of tuber crops. Plows furrows for planting potatoes, beets, celery, and dips them.
Below is a diagram and drawing of the planter In its structure are distinguished:
- 2. discs;
- 3. cam;
- 4. bracket;
- 5. axis;
- 6. scraper
- 7. driving beam;
- 8. coupler;
- 9. Handle.
Under the number 1 the working area is indicated.
Disks can be taken from an old seeder. They are installed at an angle to improve plowing performance. Hitching an arbor to a single-axle tractor through the hitch bracket. The plow’s T-shaped leash is bolted to it with a stopper. At high speed, the sharecropper may start to slip. So it is necessary to work with it only at low speed or with twin wheels.
According to other instructions, start assembling the disc plough to the single-axle tractor by cutting out an equilateral angle. The toe is welded to it, and then the heel and the thrust bar. The discs are mounted on special hinges that are welded so as to ensure their symmetrical position to the common axis.
Plow for power tiller with your own hands
The machine is assembled in several ways, and the complexity of some assembly options may consist, first, in the availability of the necessary material, and secondly, you need to have at least a little experience in such work. If you have already made something in your life, making a home-made plough is not too complicated.
First it is necessary to understand what kind of design to choose, which depends mainly. on what kind of soil will be operated plow. Next, you need to select the material, tools and make drawings, and then the layout. For material is sometimes enough that is in the garage or in the shed, and the tool required will be a gas torch, grinder and welding. Other improvised tools and materials for work probably found at any, even the novice designer.
Types of plows
Plows are divided into several types, some have a more complex design, but each has a unique difference in operation, and visually. Types of plows:1. Single-hulled and double-hulled.2. Rotary (reversible).3. Rotary.4. With mouldboard or without mouldboard.A two-hoe plow in an independent version is mostly assembled for a tractor or mini-tractor, since these agricultural machines have more horses than any single-axle tractor. However, there are craftsmen who make a two-hulled device with a swivel mechanism on their own, just for the motor-block. But the turnover plow differs in its arrangement from the typical two-hoe model.
Rotary plow
Rotary or reversible plow. this design allows you to save on fuel, not making an idle stroke backward during plowing. After each passage of the strip, the construction is unfolded on its axis, this occurs in manual mechanical mode.
There is also a slatted reversible plow, has an unusual shape and size of the ploughshare, and the mouldboard, in fact, is a lattice plate. This type of plough has advantages and disadvantages. On the disadvantages are, firstly, the weight of the plough will increase, and secondly, its construction is slightly more complicated, therefore, more experience is needed in its creation than in the assembly of a single-column plough. The positive aspects include saving time and money when working with such a unit.
The rotary plow model is completely different from other types, both in its design and operating principle, and it also notes the ease of operation and quality of plowing produced. Additionally, when using a rotary plow for a power tiller, complicated areas are worked: curves, dead ends, areas where conventional plow designs remain helpless. Very convenient for plowing on small private plots.
Shaft and non-shaft options
The mouldboard plough turns and loosens the soil. this is the classic version. The shoeless plow is designed for loosening, mostly used in arid regions where the ground is hard.
The mouldboard is the top part of the plough that is tightly joined to the ploughshare. Its mission is to cut the soil layer from the furrow wall, loosen, shift to the side, and turn the lower layer up. On this element depends on the quality of arable work, the moldboard itself is conventionally divided into two parts:1. The breast of the mouldboard.2. Mouldboard wing.Exactly from length and angle of bend of a wing will depend how the plow will turn the soil. If necessary, the length of the wing is made longer, adding in addition, the so-called “feather”. The lower part of the plough is called the ploughshare. it is the main working element, it is desirable to make it out of quality steel. These two elements are the basis of the plough, and the place of connection between them (bolt heads in the sweat,) as well as the working surface itself, should be without projections. smooth. The single-hoe plough for your power tiller is a good choice for self-made ploughing. We will give you one popular option with some drawings and instructions that will help make the unit with your own hands even a novice in such matters.
A self-made one-hoe plough for a crawler plough
A single-hoe plow is the best option for a power tiller. Before making it, you should immediately think about the arrangement of a removable ploughshare. Even if it’s made out of high-alloy steel, you still need to sharpen it regularly. A well sharpened plowshare will not only make the plowman’s work easier, but will also reduce the wear and tear of the tiller.
It is also worth to understand that it is unlikely to assemble a quality design without a blueprint. Take a look at the drawing on the one-hoe plough.
You need 3 to 5 mm of steel for the working parts. The plowshare should be the first thing to do, the best option for making a self-made plowshare is to make it from a circular saw blade. The disk is not difficult to find, but if not available, then use alloy steel 9HS. If you do not have any, use ordinary, non heat-treated steel. The cutting, working edge is hammered on an anvil, and then sharpened on an emery table.
The moldboard is made from an ordinary, suitable size pipe. A tube with a diameter of 500 mm and a wall thickness of up to 5 mm is quite suitable for a power tiller. Thicker pipe can be found, but do not, will increase the weight of the plow, in addition, it will have to work on the anvil. To cut an accurate billet out of the pipe, you should first make a template for the moldboard on hard paper, or better yet make a cardboard. According to the cardboard template, observing the dimensions, cut the moldboard out of the pipe with a gas cutter. All the edges of the future mouldboard need to be smoothed on an emery wheel.
Now it is necessary to assemble the layout of the future construction, for this you need to cut out the relevant parts and carefully glue them together. When gluing, observe the following geometric dimensions: angle alpha 25.130 degrees in different parts of the body, gamma angle 42. 50 degrees. Now you can begin making the plough, if the cardboard copy meets the specified dimensions and parameters.
After finishing all components: ploughshare, mouldboard, for the assembly of the plough is required a small sheet 50×50 cm is quite suitable to make the assembly and tack construction spot welding, and then completely weld. Step back from the edges 40 mm, apply a ploughshare at an angle of 25 degrees and “tack” in two places on the edges of the weld. The side plate should be tacked vertically with a coulter and it should overstep the edge of the coulter by 6-8 mm. The shield should be made higher than the cutting part of the ploughshare by about 5-10 mm. This step is necessary to allow the plowshare to undercut the ground unhindered.

Who has single axle tractor Ugra with engine Lifan, I have shafts and sleeves with splines at 17, on the PTO.
Denis (Elkayam) What difference does it make if it has a Lifan or a Japanese gearbox? It’s a Kaluga factory shaft with 17 mm diameter
Sergey (Finscoth) Yes, I did not take that into account, spline sleeve and shaft I picked up from the submersible ESP pump.The pump is pumping oil from wells.
Denis (Elkayam) is a powerful hub
Sergey (Finscoth) No babushka, the inner sleeve with splines on the PTO shaft or upper or lower depending on what, in the inner sleeve shaft and there as needed, or on the chisel, in a word the drive for the linkage.
Vyacheslav (Jaazaniah) where you can see them? and how much money it costs?
Sergey (Finscoth) so I put a photo in the group.
Sergey (Finscoth) For the price I do not know, but for shipping, too, the question.Shorter forwarding, we are human beings.I got them from the repair shop for myself.Ah, it turned out a lot, so I thought, maybe someone needs.
Sergey (Finscoth) Can you mah on mah, need a spoon-cut may be possible.Or a forge to order?
Vyacheslav (Jaazaniah) Sergei hi.We have blacksmiths.What kind of spoon cutter do you need?I looked they are different.write what you need.only shipping will probably be expensive.I looked where you live, a little shocked
Vyacheslav (Jaazaniah) Sergei, I would like to ask your advice.I understand you have an Ugra.I have an idea to make a skimmer and a disc blade on my Ugra.My engine is Honda 9L.It pulls just fine.It is very pleasant to work at small (ploughing) and medium (cultivation with mills) rotational speed.it’s not too loud, you can say it rumbles.If the plough is too deep, of course, it starts to slip.the small skimmer will undercut the topsoil and dump to the bottom of the furrow.And the main plow naturally does its job.I want to understand if it is worth the trouble with skimmers.I don’t want to put weights on a single axle tractor.heavy to haul.I would like to put overrunning clutches or differentials on wheels.I do not drive it with a trailer.I just want to work.What machine hubs will fit??
Vyacheslav (Jaazaniah) wheels are mounted on one axle threaded on one side with another hat with a hexagon.diameter 12mm.advise what hub can be adapted from?
Regarding the differential, I would buy it, it costs 2, 5 thousand, and wrap.Chemically, I don’t know.Ah, for the skimmer or rather the whole plough, I think that the single-axle tractor is not a tractor, it is enough and a cultivator. You need a load for the plough and the frame is weak.Unless the frame is reinforced or even redesigned.I am on granto hooks suspended flanges of 18 kg.every.You can’t compare your black earth with our land, and even if virgin land is a million years old, it seems to me that cultivator is enough. And the spoon-cutting is medium, what would be a spoon for eating can make.May God give me strength so my horn.True, the coal is a problem. If you think about it, let’s exchange coords. Bye.
Sergey (Finscoth) P.S.Differential on yandex on Ugra.
