Section J. Tractor storage
Belarus 90/92 Operating manual

Requirements for outdoors long-term
storage
Engine preparation for putting in long-
term storage includes preservation of
surface of parts inside an engine (inside
preservation) and washing the cooling
system, sealing of inside surfaces,
preservation of outside unpainted engine
surfaces (outside preservation), and if
hood is not provided, engine packing with
polymer film sheath. Preservation of
empty fuel tanks includes the use of
volatile inhibitors. Air purifier is cleaned
and washed, and sump is filled with
operation preservation oil.
Threaded connections of mounting
mechanism, steering trapezoids, hydraulic
systems and so on are cleaned and
greased.
Preservation
Preservation provides provisional
anticorrosion protection of tractor
assemblies and systems from ambient
exposure in the process of tractor
transportation and storage.
Tractor surfaces subject to
preservation are cleaned from
mechanical staining, degreased and dried
up. Unpainted inside and outside
galvanized surfaces, specific assemblies
of tractor and cabin are conserved with
corrosion-proof oil RUST BAN 397.
SUMIDERA 397. Material consumption is
0.02-0.03 kg per tractor.

SUMIDERA 397. Material consumption is
0.02-0.03 kg per tractor.
Preservation of fuel tank inside
surfaces is carried out by sputtering after
their manufacture and before coating with
preservation oil RUST BAN 335. ML -
5888, instruments panel – after assembly
by sputtering corrosion-proof oil RUST
BAN 397, SUMIDERA 397 on inside
panel surfaces. PTO drive ends are
preserved by greasing with corrosion-
protective oil RUST BAN 335, ML -5888.
Material consumption is 0.1 kg per tractor.
Some assemblies (monocyclone, necks
of radiator and fuel tank, breathers,
cylinders’ rods) are sealed with
polyethylene sheathes. Consumption of
material is 0.66 kg per tractor.
Materials used provide protection of
tractor and its assemblies for the period of
storage and transportation within one year.
Before putting tractor into operation
remove polyethylene sheathes, clean
outside tractor surfaces off preservation
material using cloth soaked in solvent
under GOST 3134-78.
Outside tractor and its assemblies
preservation is made by lubrication of
surfaces using brush or sputtering by
means of paint sprayer.
Inside tractor preservation is carried out
by filling cavities with preservation mixture
and subsequent engine operation.
Depreservation
Depreservation method is chosen
depending on preservation materials
used. Surfaces under preservation have
to be wiped with cleaning cloth soaked
with low-viscous oils, solvents, or washed
away with washing water-soluble
detergents. Sealed assembles should be
stripped off insulation materials (film,
paper). Inside surfaces under
preservation need no depreservation.
Represervation
Tractor represervation is carried out in
case conservation defects are detected in
the process of storage or upon expiration
of protection life.
During tractor operation and inter-shift,
short-term and long-term storage, means
and methods of preservation, storage
conditions are chosen by an enterprise,
that maintains tractor in compliance with
GOST 7751-85. Inside surfaces may also
be preserved with general-purpose
