The sound of combustion engine Andoria S 301 D in operation. The recording was realized in the National Museum of Agriculture and Agricultural-Food Industry in Szreniawa (Poland).
“Andoria” is the oil powered combustion engine. This engine type was commonly used since the 1970s to power agricultural machines (threshers, chaff cutters, presses). They were used for the construction of small “Sam” tractors, which played a crucial role in the process of motorization of individual farming in the 1960s and 1970s. “Andoria” engines were characterized by simple design, a perfect solution for difficult conditions.
