b) If the machine works on very soft ground or gets trapped, it is necessary to clean the chassis
bodyframe.
c) One side of crawler should be lifted away from the ground by rotating the lower machine body by
90°and lowering down the bucket, the angle between the moving arm and bucket lever should be kept
90°～110°, and the arc part of bucket should be placed on ground.
d) Remove the mud on crawler board by lifting the crawler with front and rear rotating arms.
e) After landing the crawler, the treading speed should be lowered and the machine should be transferred
