This remarkable row-crop tractor, a successor to the original T-40, brings a blend of raw power and practical design to the fields. Produced between 1968 and 1973, the LTZ-40, also known as the "Belarus LTZ-40" in Western markets, is a testament to enduring engineering and agricultural efficiency.

Engine Powerhouse: The Vladimir D-144

At the heart of the LTZ-40 beats the reliable Vladimir D-144 engine. This 4-cylinder, air-cooled diesel unit displaces 253.2 cubic inches (4.1 liters) and delivers a solid 50 horsepower. With a rated RPM of 1800 and a maximum torque of 161.5 lb-ft (219.0 Nm) achieved at 1050 RPM, this engine provides the muscle needed for demanding farm tasks, ensuring consistent performance crop after crop.

Transmission Versatility: Conquer Any Terrain

The LTZ-40 boasts a versatile transmission designed for adaptability. Featuring 7 forward gears and 1 reverse gear, it offers a wide range of speeds to match any operation. The inclusion of a creeper range further enhances its precision, allowing for ultra-slow movements critical for delicate tasks or navigating challenging terrain. Whether you're plowing, tilling, or transporting, this transmission ensures you have the right gear for the job.

Robust Build and Practical Features

Built for the realities of farm life, the LTZ-40 comes standard with a comfortable cab, offering protection from the elements. Its mechanical features include power-assist steering for effortless maneuverability and reliable band brakes for confident stopping power. Available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations, this tractor adapts to your specific needs, providing stability and traction where it counts.

Hydraulics and Hitch: Ready for Implements

The hydraulic system on the LTZ-40 is designed for efficiency, offering a total flow of 11.4 gpm (43.1 lpm). This robust system, coupled with a rear lift capacity of 4,410 lbs (2000 kg), means the tractor is well-equipped to handle a variety of mounted implements. From plows to cultivators, the LTZ-40 is ready to be your partner in the field.
