Sod cutter machine introduction

Author:Ricdro

sod cutter is used for turf transplantation. Using this machine, it can completely replace the pure manual operation. It is equipped with a 9-horsepower engine. It has strong power, high efficiency and reliability, high work efficiency, and reduces labor costs. The cut long strips of turf have uniform specifications and are easy to harvest. The rolls are easy to transport and have a high survival rate after turf transplantation.

Drafting machine is a machine that cuts turf into turf blocks or turf rolls of a certain width, thickness and length. The working device of sod cutter is a turf cutter. It has two structural types: one is composed of two L-shaped vertical side knives and a horizontal bottom knife. The side knives cut vertically to form the width of the turf. The bedknife cuts the root of the turf to form the bottom of the turf, which is the thickness of the turf. The other is composed of a U-shaped blade. The horizontal blade of the blade cuts the bottom of the turf, and the vertical blade cuts the two sides of the turf, so that the turf is completely separated from the ground. Nowadays, U-shaped blades are more commonly used, and vibrating blades are often used. This blade is easy to enter the soil, can reduce the cutting resistance, and is not easy to clay. According to the different supporting power, the drafting leather machine has a walking-controlled self-propelled type and a tractor-mounted type.

The walking-operated self-propelled drafting leather machine is currently the most widely used model. Its cutting device generally uses a vibrating U-shaped blade driven by an eccentric wheel. Generally equipped with 4-7kW gasoline engine as power, the power of the engine is driven by V-belt and chain transmission or gear transmission, driving the driving wheel located in front of the blade, so that sod cutter walks and the cutting knife is used to cut the turf.

Drafting the terrain suitable for the skin

Mountainous areas, plains, greenhouses, hills, ridges, dry land and other terrains.

Features of drafting leather machine

  • [Walking design] Flexible turning, turning around without rolling, suitable for small areas; low center stability, comfortable walking.
  • [High survival rate of turf] After transplantation, the survival rate of turf is high, forming a flat block
  • [Sturdy and wear-resistant] Strictly selected materials, the overall is sturdy and wear-resistant, the machine is durable and has a long life
  1. The depth and angle of drafting can be adjusted arbitrarily to adapt to different turf conditions;
  2. The special differential drive wheel makes the machine turn flexible and does not crush the grass;
  3. Low center of gravity, good stability, and high efficiency in drafting leather;
  4. With its own walking wheels, it is convenient to transfer the work site;
  5. The armrest has a shock-absorbing spring for comfortable operation;
  6. The blade of special material is durable.

Scope of application: It is widely used in the sales of new lawns and the transplantation of old lawns.

Drafting the use of leather machines

Large-scale grass planting has become an important part of the supporting facilities of today’s animal husbandry infrastructure, and it has become an urgent need to introduce the living environment of animal breeding into the “landscaping”. But keep the lawn smooth and beautiful. The lawn must be mowed frequently if the grass is rich. There are many types of drafting machines. For most lawns and lawns with low maintenance requirements, a rotary knife drafting machine can be used.

  1. Sod cutter the preparation before using the leather machine

(1) Check the tightness of each connection part, whether each handle is flexible and reliable.

(2) Check the gear oil in the gearbox, add the specified gear oil, and the oil level is 1/2 of the height of the reduction box.

(3) Add lubricating oil to each lubrication point.

(4) Adjust the tension of the V-belt, the tension of each is 100～200N. Press the V-belt by hand, and it can be slightly pressed down by 3 to 5 cm.

(5) The tail wheel is inflated, and the air pressure is 98～295kPa.

  1. Drafting the operation steps of the leather machine

(1) Start the diesel engine correctly and make it run at low speed.

(2) Depress the cutter clutch handle, engage the cutter power, and increase the throttle to 1/3 to make the cutter run (reciprocating vibration).

(3) Adjust the cutting depth of the cutter. Insert the cutter into the soil, and tighten the adjustment handle after reaching the depth of the soil.

(4) Depress the travel clutch, engage the travel power, increase the throttle, and start work. When entering normal operation, the throttle can be locked and positioned.

(5) The throttle can be reduced when parking temporarily, so that the diesel engine output shaft clutch can be automatically separated.

(6) When stopping the operation, the cutter should be lifted.

(7) When running a short distance on the ground, the cutter should be lifted, the cutter power should be cut off, the traveling clutch should be engaged, and the cutter should be moved slowly. During long-distance transportation, it should be transported on a transport vehicle to avoid abrasion of the pattern of the rubber jacket of the driving wheel.
