MTZ 09N - 9 liter HONDA GX270 engine. from. not impressed
A comment
Last year I bought a MTZ 09N Belarus walk-behind tractor, before that I had experience working on the Neva. Seduced by a Honda engine and lots of horses. I’ll say right away that Belarus was not impressed, it seems that horses are significantly less than 6-7 no more. Outwardly, too, is not a designer’s dream - it looks like a Soviet tractor from an old film.

Milled the garden, used 6 mills. If immersed at the declared depth, the motor may simply stall, obviously not enough power. Maybe the matter is in heavy, moist soil (it was autumn) I don’t know, but I was counting on more.

For the winter I got canopies for cleaning snow. I was afraid to take the blade, took the rotor. Dry snow throws off with a bang, but loose, the heaviest, quickly clogs the snow channel, so you have to shovel in the old way.

In the summer I plan to buy a mowing machine.
pros
easy to manage
Minuses
It does not provide the declared power, it is rather expensive in its segment

Motoblock MTZ 09N universal assistant
A comment
I bought a motoblock MTZ 09N Belarus in 2010, my father is still. This year I had to work with him. Prior to this experience with such devices was not. What I did: plowed, harrowed, loosened, sowed, carried out work with a rotary tiller, spudded and dug up potatoes. In addition, she transported it, mowed the grass and cleared the snow. The latter is already on my initiative, after I got a taste and riveted a snow plow on my own. He does all the work perfectly, but there is still something to complain about. A hitch cutter is a rather dreary occupation. The groove is very tight, and given its weight of 50 kg, for one it is quite difficult.
pros
great universal helper
Minuses
very fuzzy gearshift, set to neutral when jammed, then start up, and he jumps forward
To disable the differential lock, you need to make significant efforts, and it needs to be turned off at every turn when you plow

Motoblock MTZ Belorussian 09N - suitable for most characteristics
A comment
Last spring, I bought a MTZ Belorussian 09N Motoblock with a 9 horsepower HONDA GX270 engine. I chose for a long time and after comparing most of the characteristics of 4-5 walk-behind tractors. There is a lot of work for the walk-behind tractor: I process 4 hectares of fields, transport potatoes and building materials for 5-7 km. Of the additional attachments I use: a trailer, a plow, a rotary mower, a cultivator, lugs.
Run-in took 3 days, after which I changed the oil according to the instructions.Then he mowed 3 hectares of the field - he did it perfectly. Cultivating 1 hectare was just great, you just had to hold the walk-behind tractor with one hand, it was easy to cultivate 10 cm. Plowing 9 acres of virgin lands is pretty good, but 1-2 horses in power would not hurt.
pros
good engine power; power take-off shaft, walk-behind tractor is heavy, which is simply indispensable when processing heavy soil or plowing virgin lands, multifunctionality is used both for mowing, and for transportation, and for a motor pump, a wide selection of attachments, maintainability.
Minuses
gears are unclear.
