When the YuMZ tractor was launched into production, the "tractor" classification of the plant's production began. The reasons for this were as follows:
space rocket production began covering;
related and auxiliary industries began to load;
reduced burden on the expenditure side of the budget;
supplies to the domestic market of wheeled tractors increased.
Dnepropetrovsk plant independently produced its first tractor UMZ-6 in 1971. At this time, at the plant, this production covered work for the space-rocket complex and tractors were exported under the Belarus brand. Although there were external differences with the Minsk tractors.
Justice was restored only by the end of the 70s. Then they began to be called the YuMZ tractor, but they continued to produce several models under the Belarus brand.
In these years, Yuzhmash tractors were considered the best. The first quality mark was assigned to this particular machine, it was called "Machine of the Year."
In 1990, a complete modernization took place - and the sixth series was born, the main feature of which is adaptation to construction. A rear wheel drive chassis for this tractor was produced, brand SESH-6002. The tractor also entered the 10244 UMZ series. It has been upgraded to work in public utilities and is equipped with handling equipment.
Today, the plant continues to improve its products.
The UMZ mini-tractor, a recent development of the plant, is designed for agricultural work. Uses many types of attachments and trailers. The design is somewhat archaic, but this does not reduce all its advantages. The tractor is quite reliable and also easy to operate and inexpensive for this type of equipment.
Currently, only two models are produced - the UMZ-6AKL tractor and the 6AKI model. Their difference is only in starting the engine - and a compressor is also provided for the transport model.
In the mid-90s, the front suspension of this car was strengthened. As a result, he received a tractor chassis SESH-6002.
This model has high durability and reliability in operation. A diesel engine with a capacity of 60 horsepower is installed. This mini-tractor is widely used in agriculture. It is quite cheap to maintain and has a low purchase price. On the Russian market there are a large number of spare parts for the car - and this is a big plus over foreign analogues.
