In our recent paper [1], we gave a complete description of symmetry reduction of four Lax-integrable (i.e.,
possessing a zero-curvature representation with a non-removable parameter) 3-dimensional equations. Here we
study the behavior of the integrability features of the initial equations under the reduction procedure. We show
that the ZCRs are transformed to nonlinear differential coverings of the resulting 2D-systems similar to the one
found for the Gibbons-Tsarev equation in [17]. Using these coverings we construct infinite series of (nonlocal)
conservation laws and prove their nontriviality. We also show that the recursion operators are not preserved
under reductions.
