The MTZ tractor was tested by filling it with a layer of ice

Belarus 1222.3, in severe frost, was doused with cold water from a hose for a long time so that the car was covered with a thick layer of ice. And it was a success: after some time, the flagship model of the Minsk Tractor Plant was bound by a strong ice crust. All this was done for the sake of a test that was carried out directly by MTZ employees.

After some time, the tractor driver opened the cab door and tried to start the engine: the 136-horsepower D-260.2S3A diesel engine produced by the Minsk Motor Plant started up without any problems. This, in fact, was the point of the test.

Let us add that Belarus 1222.3 is a more modern version of the absolute bestseller “Belarus-1221.3”, which is perfectly familiar to everyone who has ever met Belarusian tractors (it is easy to identify by its characteristic blue color).
