Zaporozhec was intended for ploughing with 2-corpus plough and working with other agricultural machinery of general purpose. It was produced by the "Krasnai Progress" ("Red Progress") (currently Diesel building plant) located in Bol'shoi Tokmak of Zaporozhe region. About 500 of these tractors were made. Created for development and management of small peasants' lots with consideration of domestic conditions and made out of common use materials - this tractor was simple in production and use. 2-tact 1 cylinder engine worked on crude oil. This was the simplest tractor made in early 1920's.
