Features

• Compact Size：Designed specifically for mini tractors, it has a relatively small and lightweight structure, making it easy to handle and maneuver in small fields or areas with limited space.
• Simple Operation：The plow is easy to operate, even for inexperienced users. It can be easily attached to the mini tractor using a three-point hitch or other mounting systems, and the operation process is relatively straightforward.
• Efficient Tilling：With two tines or shanks, it can cover a certain width of the soil surface in one pass, effectively turning over and loosening the soil. This helps to break up compacted soil, improve soil aeration, and prepare the soil for sowing or planting.
• Adjustable Depth：Most 2-tined plows for mini tractors come with adjustable depth settings. This allows the operator to control the depth of tillage according to the specific requirements of the soil and the crop being planted, typically ranging from 15 to 30 cm.
• Versatile Use：It can be used for various agricultural applications, such as preparing seedbeds, burying crop residues, controlling weeds, and improving soil fertility. It is suitable for different types of soil, including sandy, loamy, and clayey soils.

Structure

• Tines or Shanks：These are the main working parts of the plow that penetrate the soil and turn it over. They are usually made of high-quality steel to ensure durability and wear resistance. The tines are designed to cut through the soil with minimal resistance and can be sharpened or replaced when worn out.
• Frame：The frame provides support and stability to the entire plow. It is typically made of sturdy metal tubing or plates and is designed to withstand the forces exerted during tillage. The frame is attached to the mini tractor at the front and supports the tines at the rear.
• Hitch Assembly：This is used to connect the plow to the mini tractor. It usually consists of a three-point hitch or a drawbar, which allows for easy attachment and detachment of the plow. The hitch assembly also enables the operator to adjust the height and angle of the plow for optimal tilling.
• Depth Control Mechanism：This component allows the operator to adjust the depth of the plow. It can be in the form of adjustable wheels, skids, or a hydraulic cylinder. By changing the position of the depth control mechanism, the operator can raise or lower the tines to achieve the desired tilling depth.

Working Principle

When the mini tractor moves forward, it provides the power to drive the 2-tined plow. As the plow is pulled through the soil, the tines penetrate the ground and cut through the soil layers. The shape and angle of the tines cause the soil to be lifted and turned over, creating furrows. The plow continues to move forward, leaving behind a series of turned-over soil ridges, which helps to aerate the soil, mix in organic matter, and prepare the land for planting.
