Huter MK-8000 (70/5/10)

Eight horses in harness

Despite the claimed Aryan origin, which determines the design features and functional potential of the two-wheel tractor, the Huter MK-8000 agricultural machine is produced at a Chinese factory. Although the device is equipped with soil cutters, its capabilities go far beyond the usual cut of the soil. This is a truly universal mini-equipment for the complex processing of land using various attachments, which are available for additional order. An 8-horsepower single-cylinder 4-stroke engine is installed on the frame of the cultivator, running on AI-92 gasoline. The need for such a powerful engine is dictated by urgent needs: after all, it will be very problematic to make a heavy 130 kg two-wheel tractor with a metre working width and a soil working depth of 30 cm move on a weak engine.

Disc clutch

One of the features of the engine is the built-in oil level sensor, which will not allow the engine to start or run dry. Engine oil recommended for filling in the crankcase should have a viscosity of the 10W40 type. For the use of interchangeable attachments, the motor has a 14 mm power take-off shaft. We note with a separate plus the type of clutch that is unconventional for this class of machines — it is disc here and works in an oil bath. It is worth praising the reliable cast-iron gear reducer, which will give odds to conventional chain transmissions. The two-wheel tractor has 2 forward speeds and 1 reverse speed.

Large diameter wheels

The machine moves on wheels with the help of 2 large wheels Ø 48 cm, “shod” in pneumatic tyres with a “herringbone” tread pattern. Unfortunately, buyers often comment on the low quality of tyre rubber. The control handle can be adjusted in height and angle. This allows you to adjust the position of the handle in such a way that it is convenient for the operator not only to follow the machine, but also to accompany it from the side without trampling the processed strip. For convenience, the reverse lever is placed on the right handle along with the ignition off button and the carburetor throttle control lever, and the clutch lever is located on the left handle. All levers are made with drive cables in the best traditions of bicycle and motorcycle technology. At the back there is a hitch for trailed equipment and a parking support (coulter), which securely fixes the machine on a horizontal surface during a pause in work.
