Traveling and Other Cautions

Do not keep the pad crawler shoe under direct sunlight for
more than three months.
Avoid reckless steering operations on concrete road to the
extent possible, as this will cause wear to the shoe lug. Also,
avoid running on asphalt road of more than 60 °C (140 °F)
in temperature, as this will cause wear to the shoe as well as
damage to the road surface.
Ease the machine down from the jacked-up position.
Do not let it drop.
