Rear adapter for the motor-block Neva with their own hands
Adapter for power tiller front or rear which is better. Adapter for easy work with power tiller
Today in rural areas, it is difficult to find a person who would work the land without the use of small tools. The most popular among them is a single-axle tractor, for maximum functionality which uses attachments and adapters. If everything is very clear with the equipment, then whether an adapter is needed or can be done without it, it is necessary to understand, as seriously as possible.
Usually adapters for power tillers are universal and fit all basic models, such as Neva, Kaskad, Salyut, MTZ, Agro, Zubr, etc.д. Price of adapters for power tillers is quite high, but you can always find a model, the cost of which will be most satisfy. Also there are those who want to save money, make a homemade adapter.
Purpose of the adapter
Adapter for power tiller in a classic form is a trailer with a seat on two wheels, attached to the power tiller, and to which attachments are mounted. That adapter makes it easy to install additional equipment. The adapter turns a single-axle tractor into a mini tractor, making it not only versatile but extremely comfortable.
The adapter allows you to sit while working, thereby facilitating the work. The adapter also gives the tractor more stability, which also makes the work easier and simpler. It is also convenient that immediately adjusted attachment will not unnecessarily deepen or vice versa rise too high. Adjust the attachment on the adapter with a manual device. You can safely use the adapter even with lightweight power tillers, such as the Neva and Kaskad.
Maximum comfort is achieved by using a steering adapter or a front adapter for a power tiller. In this case, the handlebar allows you to not use the handles of the motoblock to control, which, of course, is much more convenient. With such a device, you can get the perfect minitractor. multifunctional, easy to operate and with a working speed of about five kilometers per hour.
The dimensions of such an adapter for a power tiller are usually about two meters long, eighty centimeters wide and one and a half meters high. The adapter with a steering wheel is not small in size, as it is practically the front part of a minitractor. This adapter also fits the Neva. the lightest power tiller on the market today.
Considering all of the above, the adapter can be called necessary for a power tiller.
Adapter types
There are two types of adapters on the market today:
The first adapters are designed for moving loads during harvesting and other similar agricultural work. Depending on the type of power tiller, they can carry from one hundred and fifty to five hundred kilograms. As a rule, they are universal and fit all types of power tillers. The biggest load capacity has such adapters for the MTZ power tiller.
The second type of adapter is designed to make tillage work as easy as possible. The adapter of this type with a steering wheel has shown itself well with the lightweight Neva power tiller, turning it into a full-fledged minitractor. Such an adapter can be both front and rear. In the case where the front adapter for a power tiller is used, due to the steering, it turns the device into a full minitractor at an affordable price.
Before buying an adapter for a power tiller, it is worth very carefully studying its dimensions and drawings, so that you do not encounter an unpleasant surprise in the process of operation. The size of the adapter should be comfortable for its owner.
Self-made adapter
When there is a question of how to make an adapter for a power tiller, it is worth turning to the Internet to find the answer. First of all you need to determine the size of the adapter and study the drawings. Find drawings for your future adapter will not be difficult, since there are many sites where this material is available.
Before you start the work on making a homemade adapter to the power tiller, you need to stock up on everything you need. For the work you will need:
- profile pipe;
- Steel plate;
- welding machine;
- file;
- electric hacksaw;
- drill;
- hammer;
- nuts;
- bolts.
When everything is ready, you can start. It is usually not difficult to make an adapter, if you stick to the order of work. Blueprints of the adapter to the tiller should always be at hand for reconciliation.
The frame for the adapter is made from a tube of the required length, to which are welded: the braking device, clutch mechanism, pipe for fixing the wheels, footrests and a rack for the seat, which, as the owner wishes, can be both hard and soft. Sometimes to give maximum functionality to the adapter for a power tiller, even if there is no steering wheel, a luggage rack is arranged in front for transporting various loads. Instructions for making these models are also available on the internet.
of ready-made adapters are quite high, so it is worth buying them only for professional equipment, such as MTZ motor blocks, and for light motor blocks Neva and similar it is more relevant to make this device yourself.
Overview of adapters
By design they are divided into simple and complex (universal). The former can only cultivate the ground, while the latter can transport various small-sized cargoes in addition. The device consists of a metal frame with installed two wheels.
According to the method of connection with the motoblock, the modules are:
- Tough coupling. These designs have a separate steering wheel, and the wheel set can be placed both in front and behind the mini-machine.
- Movable mounting. In this case, turning the steering wheel changes the angle between the trailed implement and the power tiller. The operator’s seating position swivels. Movable connection requires significant efforts of the driver when maneuvering.
Either way, the drive wheels can be located at the front of the structure or at the rear of the structure.
In this video you will learn the pros and cons of the adapter for MTZ:
Currently, the following types of adapters to MTZ power tillers are successfully used for cultivation of fields and land plots of small area:
- Tillin’s plowing adapter for the Belarus power tiller is the most popular in agriculture. Only quality materials are used in the construction of the device, and it is easy to operate. The seat is quite comfortable and does not make the driver tired for a long time. Pneumatic wheels make the machine more stable in all terrain. Thanks to the belt brake, it is easier to brake the model. An adapter increases the machine’s speed to 10 km/h, which is enough for farming operations. The plowing module weighs less than 50 kg.
- Horsam IS-2 adapter to MTZ power tiller. turns the construction into a small tractor. It has a steering wheel and seat, with a driving pair of wheels mounted in the back. This mini-tractor perfectly performs its tasks in a small area of gardens and vegetable gardens. The driver’s seating resembles that of a motorcycle, which creates comfortable conditions when carrying out agricultural work. Control system (gas, brake, power unit switching) is located on the steering wheel, which is important for the machine operator. The device can be connected to the MTZ 09H motor-block of the Minsk plant. It is easy to attach additional equipment, such as plows, different tillers and tractor cultivator 06, mowers and diggers, as well as snowplow mechanism.
There are a number of adapters from other manufacturers. These include:
- APM module for Neva power tiller of Krasny Octyabrsk plant. Allows connecting of ridgers, ploughs, harrows, potato harrow and many other equipment. It pulls the trailed cart with ease. The adapter is available in two versions: for one axle and two axles. This is what a special kind of towbar is for. Under the driver’s seat there is a suspension which absorbs shock absorption when operating on an uneven terrain. A brake pedal is installed near the driver, by pressing it you can easily stop the motion of the walking tractor. Air tires on the machine provide smooth running on rough terrain. The assembly of the construction is not a problem, it is quite simple and clear. If you have any questions, you can read the manual, which provides a schematic representation of the adapter.
- AMPK-500 from Kadvi used in conjunction with a heavy-duty tractor-trailer. The drive is mounted on the rear pair of wheels. Trailer body can be easily lifted and is capable of carrying loads of 500 kilograms.
- EMK is designed to connect small attachments. There is a driver’s seat in the module.
- PMG 300. a power tiller allows you to put loads of up to 350 kg in the body of the trailer.
Tip. If you have a single-axle tractor, don’t be lazy and get an adapter. Its installation increases tractive force by at least two times. All your work on the ground will be finished in the blink of an eye.
Purpose of the adapter
The adapter for a power tiller in a classic form is a trailer with a seat on two wheels, fixed behind the power tiller and to which attachments are mounted. It is the adapter that allows you to install additional equipment as easily as possible. The adapter turns a single-axle tractor into a minitractor, making it not only versatile, but also as comfortable as possible.
The adapter allows you to sit while you work, thereby making it easier to work. In addition, the adapter gives the power tiller more stability, which also simplifies and facilitates work. It is also convenient that immediately adjusted attachments will not be unnecessarily deepened or on the contrary raised too high. The attachment can be adjusted on the adapter with a hand device. Even light tillers such as Neva and Kaskad can be used with the adapter.
The maximum comfort is achieved by using a steering adapter or a front adapter for power tillers. In this case, the steering wheel allows not to use the tiller to control the machine, which is, of course, much more convenient. With such a device, you can get the perfect mini-tractor. multifunctional, easy to operate and with a working speed of about five kilometers per hour.
The dimensions of such an adapter for power tillers are usually about two meters long, eighty centimeters wide and one and a half meters high. The adapter with a steering wheel is not small in size, as it is practically the front part of the mini-tractor. This adapter is also suitable for the Neva, the lightest power tiller on the market today.
Considering all of the above, it is possible to call an adapter necessary for a power tiller.
Externally, the adapter design is a small frame with two wheels, foot platform, drawbar and seat for operator. Equipping a single-axle tractor with such “updates”, you actually turn it into a mini-tractor. to work will be many times more convenient, faster and easier, and the ability to adjust the seat will make the work more comfortable.
There are several varieties of adapters on a single axle tractor. In order to buy or produce the most suitable for you variant, you should get acquainted with all kinds of such equipment.
According to the type of coupling adapters are divided into adapters with steering and movable joint. Depending on the location. into front adapters and rear adapters.
Also, adapters can be classified separately depending on the purpose of use: with long drawbar for large power tillers and with short drawbar for small light tractors.
Adapter with steering
This kind of adapter makes your power tiller actually a complete comfortable vehicle. The front and rear adapters are in close contact with the tiller and are firmly connected to the machine. The wheels can be placed both at the back and at the front of the construction.
Adapter with movable joint
This type of adapters has its own undeniable advantages. it is easier to produce, it is easy to adjust the angle relative to the tiller. The disadvantages are that it is a bit harder to maneuver with a larger turning radius.
Front and rear adapter
The classification depends on the attachment point. The choice of this type of adapters depends purely on the owner’s individual preferences and on the work to be performed. For plowing and cultivation, for example, the front-mounted implement is well suited, as there is no need for constant monitoring of the implement during such operations. But during the ditching of beds it will be more appropriate to have a back adapter, which will allow to comfortably follow the work process.
What is an adapter and what is its purpose?
As mentioned above, the adapter to the power tiller is needed only if you want to convert the machine into a minitractor. It is possible to do this with very powerful machines that run on diesel or gasoline. After all, you won’t just be using it for its direct purpose, but you’ll also be driving, carrying very heavy loads.
So a single-axle tractor has to be able to carry a lot of load. In essence, the design of an adapter is very simple. It looks like a dolly with different parts attached to it, like:
- hitch to attach the power tiller and adapter for attachments;
- a seat for the driver;
- wheels;
- a frame for fixing the main elements;
- steering wheel.
When you convert the machine to a mini-tractor, you can further expand its capabilities, as you will have the opportunity to mount already homemade attachments. Of course, the comparison with the minitractor to some extent conditional, because the power of technology will be the same as the power of the motor block, but, more precisely, its engine. Mini-tractors have more horsepower. You can also upgrade the equipment even further by making a sunshade. With such a machine you will not be afraid of exhausting land works under the scorching sun, and your health will thank you in the end.
Most adapters have a design that involves attaching a dolly in which you can carry loads. And they might have a lift arm, which makes it even easier to control and use. There are two couplings: to the first you attach the single-axle tractor “Neva” itself, and to the second any attached equipment. Furthermore, the mechanism comes with a steering wheel, which improves its maneuverability.
The wheel base is made very strong, because it must withstand heavy loads, because you will drive the machine yourself, and can also carry large loads. You can use the machine in any conditions, even the most difficult. However, remember that according to the rules it is strictly forbidden to travel on such equipment on a busy highway.
You can move only in the countryside and for short distances.
Is it possible to assemble an adapter to the Neva power tiller
For the Neva power tiller adapter, working according to the scheme 4×4, is sold in the store of agricultural equipment.
It is recommended to prepare all the necessary materials and tools. Self-made adapter for the Neva motoblock helps to save money and spend it on other parts needed to upgrade the device.
It is worth considering how the front adapter to the Neva motoblock looks like.
The adapter for the Neva motocultivator is understood as a trailer with a seat, made on the basis of a two-wheeled frame. The functional purpose of such equipment is to make the work with the power tiller simple, convenient and comfortable. Adapter allows you to upgrade the cultivator into a small tractor, which is suitable for all kinds of work in the country, farm, garden.
Neva motoblocs with a homemade adapter come in 2 types:
- Heavy, which are divided into short and long. They are suitable for different types of power tillers, making the work on the ground easy.
- Lightweight, which are mounted on cutters. This means that the mechanism will be attached to one of the 4 wheels of the tiller.
Adapter KTZ-03
KTZ-03 front adapter with removable body, which is suitable for Neva MB-1 and MB-2 motor blocks, allows the user to provide comfort and convenience when working. It is equipped with brakes, steering and steering wheels.

- Seat.
- Short or extended drawbar.
Harrows, plows, mowers can be used as attachments. For their fixation it is enough to provide one hitch. The devices in use can be moved into the working position by means of a manual drive. Also a feature of the adapter of the trading and manufacturing company “KTZ” is its versatility, it allows in coupling such attachments as: brushes, snow blower, mower and others. This is available due to the rigid connection of KTZ-03 with the Neva motoblock and due to the oscillating front steerable axle of the device.
Drawings with the dimensions of the adapter will help you to make similar equipment with your own hands.
APM-16 front adapter with a body
The front adapter to the Neva MB-2 APM-16 power tiller together with the Neva agricultural machine can easily replace a mini-tractor. It is possible to use a power tiller with an adapter in coupling with a cart. The unit is equipped with disc brakes and steering gear. it improves controllability, and increases safety while driving. It can be completely disassembled, which makes the unit easy to transport.
- dimensions (l/w/he). 1300/800/1100 mm;

- speed at work. up to 10 km/h;
- ground clearance. 200 mm
- weight. 85 kg.
Previously described the steps for making a mechanism that works on all-wheel drive and steering. To make such a device yourself, you will need the following materials:
- rectangular steel frame;
- 2 wheels;
- an old seat from a tractor or combine harvester;
- corners;
- steel plate;
- metal pipes.
It is necessary to prepare a welder and a lathe, a tool kit, tools for gardening.
Before assembling the structure, it is necessary to make a kinematic diagram. The principle of its operation is as follows:
- The power unit motor, which is needed to drive the front wheels, must transmit torque through the chain.
- The power then goes to the reverse gear.
- Cardan gear allows you to transmit the torque to the rear axle, which drives the rear wheels, which are the drive wheels.
Types of adapters for power tillers
Externally, the adapter looks like a two-wheel trailer with a seat for the driver. When installing such a trailer, almost all the work performed is automated. The single-axle tractor itself becomes practically a mini-tractor. In addition, several models have a special lever that allows you to raise and lower the seat, making the work even more comfortable.
Adapters for power tillers can be of several kinds. To make the unit yourself, you need to decide which type will be more convenient and comfortable for the owner. Depending on the type of clutch, they come with steering and movable articulation. Depending on how the main power unit is located, there are two types: front and rear adapters.
Adapter with steering
This type is on a rigid articulation with the power tiller. The steering is represented by a separate unit, and both rear and front wheels are available. The single-axle tractor becomes almost a self-propelled machine, which is quite simple and easy to operate, almost no different from motorcycles or cars.
Adapter with movable joint
With a movable articulation, the angle relative to the vertical axis between the adapter and the motorcycle changes. It is much easier to make such a trailer, but it will require more effort when making turns. However, this type of adapter is inferior in geometry: the turning radius as well as its angle is much larger.
Front and rear adapters
The name itself defines the meaning of the view: front. it is in front of the motor block, rear. behind. Which one is better is impossible to determine, because it all depends on individual preferences, as well as the purpose of using the power tiller.
For loosening and digging up the plot, the front adapter will be more convenient, because you mainly need the power of the power tiller, and you don’t need to see the plot. But for hoeing beds, etc.п., The rear adaptor is more convenient, because you need to watch the work in progress.
It is recommended to create an adapter as close to the driving axle as possible, because the weight of the driver will give additional weight to the single-axle tractor, pressing it even tighter to the ground. This way the wheels won’t slip.
Rules for making the mouldboard
The main rule to keep in mind when making drawings of a homemade machine is to match the amount of work and the power of the machine. Overloading can lead to increased wear of nodes and mechanisms, their breakage and failure of the machine.
When planning to make a blade for a power tiller with your own hands, you must adhere to the following criteria:
- Strength. The blade must have a sufficient service life to last at least 5 years. All its parts and mechanisms must be made for the maximum allowable load and strong impacts.
- Dimensions. The homemade shovel should not be too wide and high. Optimal dimensions are width. 80-130 cm and height. 30-50 cm.
- Availability of lifting mechanism. The blade for a power tiller can be lifted hydraulically or with levers. This option allows you to remove snow from the yard or use the machine as a loader in the summertime.
- The possibility of mounting a swivel joint. With these devices you can control the blade by tilting it up or down, to the right or to the left. Choosing the angle of attack allows you to better rake snow and debris away from the track.
- Mandatory installation of a cushioning strip of thick rubber on the bottom of the bucket. This attachment is necessary to protect the single-axle tractor from shocks, the bucket from deformation or breakage, and the road surface from mechanical damage.
- Quick mounting and demounting. Since the single-axle tractor is a multifunctional device, all manipulation of its equipment should be carried out promptly and without the use of complex equipment.

Blade placement scheme suggests its installation on the front bracket, under the body or at the rear of the machine. The front blade arrangement is the best. This position ensures the best cleaning results.
The bucket made can have a horizontal or vertical orientation. The second option is chosen when working in cramped conditions.
Assembling a simple design
The simple adapter model is a metal frame. It is made of a rectangular tube 1.7 meters long. At one end of the pipe, a 0.5 meter long tube is welded perpendicularly, which will serve as the basis for mounting the racks under the adapter wheels. The height of the stands themselves from the wheel axis and to the top point. 0,3 meter.
For the manufacture of the structure you can use the wheels taken from the garden cart. They can be installed on sleeves, which are quite simple to make on a regular lathe. Finished sleeves are fitted with bearings of the correct size
After that, to the central tube and the bushings of the adapter wheels you need to attach the struts by welding. The length of the products depends on the angle of their inclination relative to the structure. The square adapter frame can also be made in any size. In our case, it’s a 0.4 x 0.4 meter frame. For the attachment, a 0.4-metre long channel 0 is welded to the rear end of the frame. Assemble and connect the side tubes of the structure using bolts.
A lever is also welded to the frame for adjusting. It has three “elbows” of 20, 30 and 50 cm in length. To increase the applied force, an additional 75 cm long lever is added to the adjusting lever. You can buy the hitch in a store or make it yourself. Regardless of whether it is a manufactured or unmanufactured hitch, special attention should be paid to its reliability. Its quality determines the duration of the attachment’s use.
The seat is placed on a metal support, which is welded to the central tube. The adapter is ready for use.
