Struck MD750 Operator's Manual

TRACKS
The track system of your Crawler is the result of over 25 years of compact crawler experience.
The track system is of an "unguided" design, but is extremely stable due to its double track
chain design. A few rules are listed below that if followed will give you maximum Track
performance.
1. Avoid overloading your track system with the material you are working in. Always work
in loose materials by clearing a "driving path" with the attachment (Blade, Bucket, etc.)
you are using. This technique will allow a minimum of material to enter the track system.
2. Avoid climbing on a pile of loose material and counter-rotating your tracks. This action
will "cork-screw" the Tracks into the pile and force unnecessarily large amounts of
material into the Tracks. The track system is designed to absorb a great deal of material,
but the less you force it to "digest", the greater will be the Track's stability and overall life.
3. Periodically, following the Track Tensioning instructions in your Operator's/Technical
Manual, check your Track tension by checking the length of the #234 Track Tension
Spring.
Though this Spring adjustment is not a precise type of adjustment, it must be realized
that to over-tension the Spring will cause a higher level of wear in your track bearings,
while under-tensioning will cause potential derailing of your Track.
