Sometimes physical strength is not enough to achieve positive results in the management of a home garden. Then special equipment comes to the rescue, which will significantly increase labor productivity and save time. A special role is played by devices for soil cultivation, one of the representatives of this type is the Champion motor-cultivator, which has a wide range of special features.

Description of the motor cultivator "Champion"

Cultivators and walk-behind tractors of the Champion brand have been produced and assembled since 2005 at one of the largest enterprises in the PRC by order of the Russian distribution company WALD LLC. In cooperation with leading American manufacturers, Briggs & Stratton, HONDA engines are used in the design, in addition to domestic ones. The assembly also uses parts of European, American, Indian production.

Cultivator "Champion"

The Champion motor-cultivator is a self-propelled agricultural technique. It can run on both gasoline and diesel and is mounted on a chassis with two wheels. Control is carried out using the right and left handles.

Technical capabilities

By default, all Champion motor-cultivators are designed for soil cultivation and perform the following pre-sowing types of work:

  • loosening, crumbling, mixing of the upper fertile soil layer;
  • simultaneous pruning of weed roots;
  • fertilizer embedding;
  • leveling the ground surface.

With sufficient weight and power, any Champion cultivator can be used as a walk-behind tractor, to which additional attachments are attached to perform:

  • deep plowing of the soil;
  • cutting furrows and beds;
  • hilling, harrowing;
  • planting and harvesting;
  • watering works;
  • transportation of goods.

Such units are advisable to use when cultivating virgin and vast farmlands. They are often applied professionally, increasing productivity and significantly saving time.

Principle of operation

The main types of work are performed using rotary tillers driven by a gasoline or electric motor. They are rotating knives mounted on the driven shaft of the gearbox, perpendicular to the soil surface. The stability of the cultivator is provided by support wheels.

The Champion cultivator is controlled by two high handles and gear shift levers.

The lineup

Depending on the type of proposed work and the degree of load, cultivators are different in their configuration and differ in some ways.
