ENGINE DETAIL
The Belarus 400A tractor features a robust 4-cylinder, 4.1L diesel engine with an impressive torque output, operating at a compression ratio of 16.5:1, making it efficient for heavy-duty tasks. Its air-cooled system minimizes maintenance needs compared to liquid-cooled counterparts, although it may impact performance in extreme heat. Ideal for agricultural applications, the tractor’s rated power of 57 hp at 1800 RPM provides sufficient strength for towing and tilling, but may struggle under continuous high-load conditions without proper management.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Belarus 400A tractor features an 8-speed or optional 11-speed transmission, allowing for versatile speed adjustments tailored to various agricultural tasks. The multi-speed configurations enhance operational efficiency, particularly in tasks requiring different power outputs, such as plowing or transport. However, the complexity of an 11-speed system may lead to increased maintenance needs and operator training requirements.

8-speed/11-speed |
TRANSMISSION 1
The Belarus 400A tractor features a sliding gear transmission with 8 forward and 6 reverse speeds, allowing for versatile operational capabilities in diverse terrains. The wide range of gears facilitates precise speed adjustments for various tasks, which is advantageous for both field work and transportation. However, the sliding gear system may require more maintenance compared to synchronized transmissions, presenting a potential challenge in terms of longevity and efficiency.

TRANSMISSION 2
The Belarus 400A tractor features an 11-forward and 8-reverse gear transmission, providing enhanced maneuverability and control in various field conditions. The dry disc clutch can offer efficient power transfer and durability; however, it may require more maintenance compared to hydraulic clutches, especially in heavy-duty applications. This configuration is ideal for tasks requiring precise speed adjustments, such as plowing or tilling, though operators should be wary of potential wear when frequently engaging the clutch.
