BELARUS 8045 ENGINE
The Belarus 8045 features a robust 4.7L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing ample torque for heavy-duty applications, making it suitable for both agricultural and industrial tasks. The engine's balance between power output and fuel efficiency is an advantage for long operational hours, although the relatively narrow power band may require careful gear management during variable load conditions. Its durability and ease of maintenance are beneficial in rugged environments, but parts availability could pose a challenge in some regions.

TRANSMISSION
The Belarus 8045 tractor features a partially synchronized transmission, allowing smoother gear transitions in higher speeds while still providing 14 forward and 4 reverse gears for versatile operation. Its oil capacity of 42 quarts (39.7 liters) supports efficient lubrication, essential for maintaining operational reliability under load. This configuration is advantageous for varied terrain and tasks, though operators may face challenges during low-speed gear shifts due to partial synchronization.
| Type | partially synchronized |
| Gears | 14 forward and 4 reverse |
| Oil capacity | 42qts / 39.7L |
| Description | Seven gears (1-7) in two ranges (low/high). Synchronized shifting in gears three to seven |
MECHANICAL
The Belarus 8045 tractor features a 4x4 MFWD (mechanical front-wheel drive) chassis, enhancing traction and stability on uneven terrain, making it suitable for varied agricultural tasks. Its ROPS (Roll Over Protective Structure) cab ensures operator safety while working in challenging conditions. The 14-speed partially synchronized transmission allows for smoother gear transitions, which can improve productivity but may require more operator skill compared to fully synchronized options.

BELARUS 8045 TIRES
The Belarus 8045 tractor features 14.2-20 front tires and 16.9-38 rear tires, providing excellent traction and stability for various agricultural tasks. Its tire sizes suggest a strong capability for handling heavy-duty fieldwork and smooth operation on uneven terrain. However, operators should consider potential challenges in maneuverability in narrower spaces due to its larger rear tire width, especially in row-crop applications.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Belarus 8045 features a wheelbase of 96 inches (243 cm), providing stability and improved weight distribution, which is advantageous for heavy-duty tasks. Its front tire size of 14.2-20 offers good maneuverability, while the larger rear tires (16.9-38) enhance traction, making it suitable for rough terrain or demanding agricultural operations. However, operators should consider the turning radius, as a longer wheelbase may limit maneuverability in tight spaces.
