Introduction
Belarus 5490 Agricultural Tractor
The Belarus 5490 is a four-wheel drive agricultural tractor produced between 1999 and 2009. Designed for general field operations, this model integrates a 103 hp engine within a robust mechanical architecture intended for sustained agricultural productivity.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Belarus D245.5, a 4.8-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with direct injection. This liquid-cooled unit produces 103 hp at a rated speed of 1800 RPM. The engine features a 24-volt electric starter system to ensure reliable ignition under various environmental conditions.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 5490 offers two transmission configurations to suit different operational requirements. The primary option is a 14-speed partially synchronized gearbox providing 14 forward and 4 reverse gears. Alternatively, a 9-speed shuttle transmission is available, offering 9 forward and 8 reverse gears for enhanced maneuverability. The tractor utilizes hydrostatic power steering to assist in operator control.
Hydraulics and Implement Management
The hydraulic system is of the open-center type. For implement attachment, the tractor is equipped with a Category II rear hitch featuring both position and draft control, allowing for precise depth and load management during soil engagement. The rear PTO is independent and offers dual-speed capabilities of 540 and 1000 RPM.
Operator Environment
The machine features a factory-fitted cab equipped with both heating and air-conditioning systems, designed to maintain operator comfort during extended work cycles. The electrical system is supported by a 12-volt, 50-amp charging circuit powered by two batteries.
Conclusion
The Belarus 5490 is a functional utility tractor characterized by its straightforward mechanical design and essential features. It is well-suited for medium-scale agricultural operations requiring reliable power, four-wheel drive traction, and a standard range of implement control systems.
