Description of the Kentavr MK20-1 Motor Cultivator

The MK20-1 garden motor cultivator is a model in the "KENTAVR" motor cultivator line designed for quick and efficient soil loosening on plots up to 0.12 acres, as well as in garden beds, flower beds, orchards, and vineyards.

The motor cultivator is equipped with a 4-section tiller with a cultivation width of 450 mm, allowing for maximum precision and accuracy when loosening soil near tree trunks, bushes, or other plantings, as well as near fences, curbs, around poles, decorative park structures, and rockeries.

A wide handlebar with soft ergonomic grips, a modern design clutch lever, a convenient manual throttle lever, an additional plastic transport wheel, and protective fenders that cover the tillers across their entire width – all these features minimize the physical effort required to operate this motor cultivator, making its use comfortable and safe even for women and the elderly.

Thanks to the power of a reliable 3.0 hp 4-stroke gasoline engine, the motor cultivator can loosen soil in two or three passes to a depth of 150 mm, even on fairly dense or previously uncultivated soils. The gasoline engine provides autonomy for off-site work, is lightweight, starts easily at low air temperatures, responds quickly to RPM control, and is simple and accessible to maintain and operate. The engine is equipped with an efficient air filter and a manual starter. The muffler is covered by a protective casing to prevent possible burns.

The motor cultivator is driven by a V-belt transmission with a controlled idler roller. The tiller is driven by a worm gear reducer. The belt drive simultaneously serves as a power transmission, clutch, and a protective and safety element. If the tiller suddenly jams with a stone or stick during operation, the belt drive will absorb the impact and prevent damage to the engine and gearbox. Furthermore, a belt-driven motor cultivator is significantly lighter in weight and lower in price, as well as simpler and more convenient to operate and maintain than one with a gear drive. The driving and driven pulleys, as well as the idler rollers, are metal, not plastic, ensuring a long service life. The V-belt is segmented, with high traction performance. For safety and protection from dirt, the entire belt drive is reliably covered by a casing.

The motor cultivator is equipped with a tiller with a working diameter of 300 mm. The tiller consists of four saber-shaped blades in each section. The blades are made of structural sheet steel. The spiral arrangement of the blades reduces vibration and ensures uniform load on the gearbox. All metal surfaces, including the engine frame, tiller parts, and depth gauge, are well-painted to protect against corrosion and extend their service life.
