Ag Mechanics

Toolkit is proud to offer the very best Ag Mechanics Training Systems for schools and workforce development programs.

The heartbeat of America’s farmland, nothing would be possible in modern agriculture practices with machinery and technicians who know how to operate, fix, repair, and maintain this machinery.

Ag Mechanics Job Outlook

Ag Mechanics refers to the people and technology that helps farmers and ranchers maintain their lands – from building or troubleshooting hydraulic circuits to welding or diagnosing/repairing a diesel engine.

Known as Agricultural Equipment Mechanic, Combine Mechanic, Dairy Equipment Mechanic, Dairy Equipment Repairer, Harvester Mechanic, Irrigation Equipment Mechanic, Milking Machine Mechanic, or Tractor Mechanic.

The overall job outlook for Farm Equipment Mechanic or Service Technician careers has been positive since 2004. Vacancies for this career have increased by 16.09 percent nationwide in that time, with an average growth of 1.01 percent per year. Demand for Farm Equipment Mechanics and Service Technicians is expected to go up, with an expected 5,580 new jobs filled by 2029. This represents an annual increase of 1.74 percent over the next few years

Toolkit is here to bring hands-on and exciting Ag Mechanics Training Systems to CTE classrooms.

  • Diesel Engine Repair Trainer 2-Cylinder Mechanical Injection

    The ConsuLab HV-145S Diesel Repair Trainer (2-cyl mechanical injection) is a complete running diesel engine for your classroom. A teardown station for teaching engine mechanical, with low-cost consumables, small package size and brand-new components. Teach the fundamentals of diesel engines, mechanical fuel injection systems, injectors, pumps, component identification all on this Kubota 2-cylinder engine from ConsuLab.

    • Engine may be run prior to disassembly and after reassembly.
    • Functional fuel control lever.
    • Bell housing plate allows access to crank pulley bolts and rear main oil seal
    • Robust connectors between the starting station and swivel for all connection points.
    • Flat-faced leak-less fuel line connections between the two units.
  • Hydrostatic Transmission – Implement and Steering

    The FP-MF500-IS-TSE Hydrostatic Transmission Trainer features the exact transmission found in the vast majority of skid-steer loaders, mini-backhoes, and numerous other mobile and industrial machines. This trainer is provided with hydraulic steering and implement, and is available as a diesel engine-driven simulator or an electric motor-driven simulator. The trainer is equipped with a state-of-the-art, dual-drive, hydrostatic transmission system. The dual-pumps are electronically controlled with independent joysticks – just like the actual vehicle. The state-of the-art, electronically-controlled, wheel load system is designed to simulate any driving conditions, regardless of severity, that a typical hydrostatic drive might experience.

     

     

  • Hydrostatic Transmission with Hydraulic Steering

    The Hydrostatic Transmission with Hydraulic Steering trainer is a “lean, mean troubleshooting teaching machine.”Almost every hydraulic component can “fail” at the flick of a switch for your students to master hydraulics troubleshooting skills.

    The MF300 is an extremely versatile 2-in-1 training system designed for teaching and learning hydraulic steering and hydrostatic transmissions.

    This is a great option for people who need to teach the basic concepts behind hydrostatic transmission and steering systems, but are short on funds and/or space. You can fault everything in the steering system, but only the pump can be faulted on the transmission end of the trainer.
