Large and powerful diesel motoblock with water cooling engine

It turns out that among the motoblocks there are real giants weighing 250-300 kg. They appeared in China and are intended there to work on heavy clay soils of rice fields. Since a tractor, even a miniature one, is useless there. Similar units can be purchased on our market. One of the representatives of this class of powerful and large walk-behind tractors is a walk-behind tractor Centaur 1081D.

Features: Japanese-designed Toyokawa diesel engine with power 8 h.p. water cooled. The unit was developed in China, but manufactured in Belarus. Starting - from an electric starter, but there is a possibility of a manual start. Internal combustion engine oil volume - 5 l. Fuel consumption: 0.8 l / h Six forward gears and two reverse gears. Unlocking differential. It is possible to turn off the drive to any wheel, thereby making turns (not even in place). And, most importantly, the mass - 260 kg (about her at the end of the article).

Gear reducer. Tillage depth -

up to 20 cm. Processing width - 1m. Maximum travel speed - up to 20 km / h. With a cart, he will not crawl like his younger fellow motoblocks. In addition, it can easily transport up to 1 ton of cargo. Four PTO options: rear and side shafts, belt pulley or freewheel. The front stand is retracted with a lever on the side of the control handles.

This is what a gear shift looks like. There is an ammeter and a disconnect switch on the brush. The clutch here is similar in design to a car - dry disc. The engine has a replaceable oil filter. The walk-behind tractor comes with a milling cutter driven by a power take-off shaft. But this technique was created for plowing:

It is a kind of mini tractor, only without the rear end. Although, you can purchase an adapter for it, then it will definitely be a mini-tractor:

But the cart will be a more rational purchase. By the way, this walk-behind tractor can have several colors: orange, blue, green. The Centaur walk-behind tractors have been produced for a long time, since about 2010. (maybe earlier).

Review of the walk-behind tractor after five years of operation:

But the cost for Centaur 1081D is currently not so affordable, starting from 103 thousand. rub.

My opinion about this unit is as follows. Yes, it has great power and reliability. But think, do you need this power? Plowing virgin soil and transporting gravel and firewood is one thing. And if you just plow a vegetable garden that is cultivated every year? Weighing in at 260 kg, even with the differential control it is not so easy to manage.

Although, for large areas of tens of acres and for farm or rural work, the Centaur 1081D is suitable. Where a tractor is a lot, and a small walk-behind tractor is not enough.

From similar models, walk-behind tractors can be noted: Crosser CR-M8E, Rusich T-12, Scout SCOUT 15 DE, Shtenli G192, Bison JR-Q79. Some of them have a cost of 80 thousand. RUB, but to understand the quality, you need to read the reviews. If someone uses such a large powerful walk-behind tractor in their work, write your review in the comments.
