How To Buy A Satisfactory And Cost-effective Tractor?

It's not easy for you to buy a satisfactory and cost-effective tractor. Why? There are many brands of tractors nowadays, each with products of different horsepower ranges, big, small, and small. The same brand has multiple different models of tractors with the same horsepower, which even industry insiders are dazzled by, let alone a user? But the more it is like this, the more serious and careful it is to compare goods with three different companies, in order to avoid being deceived and being the scapegoat.

The configuration of a tractor is constantly changing, and it is nothing more than a few key configurations. Once you master them, you can buy a satisfactory tractor according to your actual needs. Below we will introduce:

1. The selection of engine horsepower. According to the homework project you are going to do, choose the appropriate horsepower. A high horsepower tractor is good, it can work quickly and frequently, but it may be a big horse pulling a small car; If it is too small, it is possible that it cannot be pulled during homework.

2. The choice of large chassis and small chassis. This is the most intimidating and confusing. Nowadays, there are a lot of high horsepower tractors with small chassis. Even for the same brand, there are multiple different versions of tractors with the same horsepower, and the price difference is huge.
Taking the 1504 tractor as an example, the self weight of the small chassis of the 1504 is about 4 tons, the middle chassis is more than 5 tons, and the large chassis is more than 6 tons. Think about it, how can a chassis with more than 4 tons be compared to a chassis with more than 6 tons? If you want to do heavy load work such as deep loosening and plowing, you must choose a tractor with a large chassis; If you are only doing light load tasks such as rotary tillage, you can choose a small chassis tractor. The most effective way to distinguish between large and small chassis tractors is to look at the tractor's own weight.

3. The choice between four-wheel drive and two wheel drive. Nowadays, there are many four-wheel drive tractors with high traction, which are suitable for heavy load operations such as plowing and deep loosening, but their fuel consumption will be higher. Two wheel drive cars are more fuel-efficient, have a lighter body, and are more convenient for turning around. Two wheel drive and four-wheel drive should be selected according to local operational requirements and habits, as there are more two wheel drive options in the Central Plains region. The use of four-wheel drive is more common in paddy fields in the north and south.

4. Selection of tire model and manufacturer. If there is a lot of homework in paddy fields, it is recommended to use high flower tires. Of course, you can also choose the corresponding large tires according to your needs, which can improve the compaction and handling of the soil to a certain extent.

5. Selection of driver's cab. Nowadays, the comfort of tractors has greatly improved, and many tractors are equipped with luxurious cabins, optional air conditioning, fans, etc., with good sealing and dust prevention, which can be selected according to actual needs.

6. The selection of hydraulic systems. If the local soil is relatively hard and difficult to penetrate during operation, it is recommended to choose a strong pressure lift. If you want to use hydraulic flip plows, dump trailers, etc., you need to choose tractors with multiple valves.

7. Selection of counterweights. If the tractor needs to carry out heavy and heavy traction operations, such as plowing, it is recommended to choose a tractor with front and rear counterweights, and the counterweight should be added to the maximum, otherwise the tractor's traction force cannot be exerted, and the tractor's traction force is positively correlated with its own weight.

8. The selection of air brakes (dead air braking and inflation braking) and suspension. If a tractor needs to carry out transportation operations, it is necessary to choose a tractor with an air brake device. The air brake device is divided into two types: air brake and inflation brake, and different braking methods need to be equipped with different trailers.

9. Selection of gearbox. If you want to perform slow speed tasks such as trenching, you should choose one with a crawling gear. If you want more convenient operation, choose one with a shuttle gear shift.

10. Selection of power output shaft speed. Generally, choose 540/760 power output, and try not to choose a power output of 1000 rpm, because a power output of 1000 rpm is less commonly used in practical use.
