Abstract: The article presents dependencies for determining the power parameters of a geohod in a step-by-step mode of motion. The prospects of the geohod technology of mining are noted. A distinctive feature of geohopping technology is given. It is concluded that in all mining equipment, its weight is increased to increase effort. The basic element of geohod technology (Geohod) uses a geo-environment to generate traction and pressure forces, which leads to the absence of the influence of machine weight on traction and pressure forces. It is noted that the change in rock strength during mining has a negative effect on the creation of pressure and traction forces. Energy consumption increases due to the fact that with a slight presence of strong rocks in rocks of medium or soft strength, most of the time a fairly powerful mining machine creates forces, as when sinking workings in strong rocks. Under the same conditions, a machine designed for digging workings in medium-strength rocks, encountering a strong rock on the way, may not create the necessary traction and pressure forces to destroy it at all. In the case of mining with a geohod, it is possible to reduce the power parameters by changing the mode of movement of the geohod from combined to stepper. The purpose of the work is to determine the power parameters during the step mode of movement of the geohod in the geo environment. A mathematical model of the movement of a geo-walker in a geo-environment in step mode has been developed. A diagram of the forces acting on the geohod's systems during its movement in the geo-environment and the names of these forces is presented. It is established that in the step mode of movement, an additional force is exerted to pull the stabilizing module towards the traction module. The expressions obtained make it possible to determine the power parameters of a geohod in a step-by-step mode of movement in a geo-environment.
