Xingtai mini tractor manufacturing plant -XINGTAI FIRST TRACTOR MANUFACTURING Co., Ltd. / ponytractor.ru

The market for agricultural special equipment is now quite diverse and includes both large-sized equipment and very compact models. Cars in the latter segment are currently increasingly gaining popularity, mainly due to their efficiency and affordable cost. Among them, Chinese models stand out, but it should be noted that not all Chinese equipment is of high quality. A machine that completely refutes this fact can be called the Xingtai-244 minitractor. In its class, it has very excellent indicators of power, reliability, maneuverability and versatility, which only contributed to the increase in popularity. This model uses a four-wheel chassis and a two-cylinder diesel engine with the index TY 2100 IT, which is designed for an operating power of 24.4 horsepower, which is precisely what is indicated in the name of the mini-tractor.

But the model is not the only one in its class, since other manufacturers have presented similar models, which are the Huanghai Jinma 224 mini-tractor and the DTZ 244-4 mini-tractor. They have almost complete similarities, both in technical and operational characteristics, which has caused strong competition. However, the Xingtai-244 mini-tractor has many unique features, which made it possible to attract more consumers.

Purpose

The Xingtai-244 model has a very good traction force, due to which the equipment is often used for towing any mounted units. This also means that the tractor can be used to transport various loads. It is worth noting that it is capable of handling a trailer weighing up to 2000 kilograms. Due to the rear power take-off shaft, it is possible to install a concrete mixer, with which the equipment is often used in the construction of any objects. In addition to all this, the Xingtai-244 mini-tractor is a very popular piece of equipment among farmers, since its small overall dimensions make it possible to carry out almost all types of work carried out in limited working space.

convenient control;
compactness;
good endurance;
a wide range of additional parts: potato digger, rake, trailer, disc furrow.

load capacity: 350 kg

Device Features

This mini tractor, like all other models, uses a pneumatic-wheeled chassis with a four-by-four formula. As practice has shown, this formula is especially effective if the equipment does any work on viscous and heavy soil. Also, the cross-country ability of the model was positively affected by the presence of a locking center differential, which prevents one of the wheels from slipping. All wheels are standardly equipped with special tires with a deep herringbone-shaped tread. It is worth noting that this pattern is often found on heavier machines, as it provides not only increased maneuverability, but also improved maneuverability, which is especially appreciated in conditions with small working space.

The standard equipment of Xingtai-244 contains a manual gearbox, which has one reverse gear and four forward gears. This is quite enough to select the required traction force and travel speed. It uses a single-plate dry clutch, which has an extended service life. An uninterrupted supply of fuel to the engine is ensured by a plunger fuel pump, which copes with its task even with strong shaking.

The high-quality design of the minitractor provides for a significant increase in weight on the wheels of the rear axle. This is achieved through special elements made of high-strength metal. Thanks to this, the load-carrying capacity of the equipment and its cross-country ability significantly increase.

Typically, such mini tractors are produced without a cabin, but the manufacturer has released one modified version containing this element. Thus, the consumer can choose the most suitable option for himself. The version with a cabin is especially relevant when operating in winter or in harsh weather conditions, when a tractor without a cabin is the opposite. It should be noted that the cabin can also be installed on the standard version as additional equipment, however, the final cost will increase noticeably.

According to the owners of this model, the equipment turned out to be very simple and convenient to operate. A mini tractor will not require a lot of experience from the driver, since you can deal with this machine in a fairly short time.

Often Chinese brands do not inspire much trust. This is due to the low quality of components and assembly itself, which is currently considered a common occurrence due to counterfeits. This model, on the contrary, is distinguished by the highest quality and the minimum number of shortcomings, which has allowed it to gain great popularity in the Russian market of agricultural special equipment. The characteristic advantages of the Xingtai-244 mini-tractor can rightfully be called a huge service life and unpretentiousness.

It is also worth highlighting the overall dimensions of the mini-tractor, which is also one of the key advantages of the model. The equipment turned out to be very compact, and in addition to increasing maneuverability, this also had a positive effect on storage. Thus, the mini-tractor can be stored in a regular garage, but if there is none, then the mini-tractor can easily overwinter under a canopy. This is largely due to the high-quality paint and varnish coating, which has increased resistance to corrosion and various weather influences.

The largest number of positive reviews about this mini-tractor are observed in Russia. The Chinese model is very popular among professional farmers and ordinary villagers who purchase a machine to perform their own tasks. This is explained primarily by the optimal ratio of cost and quality, which had a strong influence on the popularity of the model.

Reliability

Xingtai-244 stands out for its increased reliability, as evidenced by numerous reviews from owners. Thanks to the plunger fuel pump, a constant supply of fuel is ensured even with strong shaking, which guarantees uninterrupted operation of the power unit for a long time.

Repair features

The manufacturer supplies original components for this model to many countries around the world, including Russia. Therefore, finding the necessary spare part or any element can be quite simple and cheap. Thanks to this, the equipment will not require large investments in case of serious breakdowns.

Minitractor Xingtai 160

Due to its versatility and compactness, such a unit can easily be used when working in greenhouses and greenhouses. In addition to this, it is worth highlighting other features:

affordable price;
small size;
highly efficient;
reliability.

Specifications:

engine: 16 l. p., 1-cylinder, four-stroke
starting: electric starter
load capacity: 350 kg
fuel tank: 17 l

Price

In comparison with its analogues, the Xingtai-244 minitractor has a fairly attractive price. Thus, a car without mileage in standard configuration can cost from 210 thousand rubles to 230 thousand Russian rubles. Most often they purchase the version with a cabin, that is, a modification of this tractor. This option has a noticeably increased cost, namely from 270 thousand rubles to 350 thousand Russian rubles.

The cost of used models now varies from 150 thousand rubles to 240 thousand Russian rubles. The main factors influencing the price are the year of production, the presence or absence of a cabin, the general technical condition, and the operating time.

Fuel consumption of Xingtai 220 tractor

The Xingtai 220 mini-tractor is characterized by low fuel consumption, only 189 g/kWh. Provided that the fuel tank has a small capacity of 17 liters, this model will require constant refueling if the area being processed and the load on the device is large. The situation is different with the domestic model of this class - MTZ-132N.

Reviews

Purchased in late autumn, Xingtai-244 was used all winter for transport work and snow removal. The first impression is that the car is worth the money, but the build quality is still poor. There is weak tightening of threaded fasteners, large play in the steering, low strength and durability of the protective paint coating. The engine is excellent, traction is at the level of the T-40 tractor, it starts easily in 18-degree frost, fuel consumption is within the stated characteristics.
The tractor is not bad, but the same cannot be said about the quality of the offered attachments. Quite expensive agricultural equipment needs thorough improvement. When plowing virgin land with a double-furrow plow, as well as when towing a faulty 5-ton truck, the Xingtai 244 showed excellent results, since there was still a significant power reserve.
