This dump-truck designed for working in quarries with
excavators with buckets of volume 4-5 m3. From 1959 to
the end in 1965, the production of this giant lorry was
transferred from Minsk Automobile Plant to Belorussian Automobile
Plant, hense its name, between 1959-1965, was 
BelAZ.
This was one of few Soviet trucks to have hydraulical power
steering to make the job of the driver easier.
