5. Working in a depression causes the outer components
to carry the heaviest load. The wear is increased on
the outer links, roller treads, idler treads, and track
plate ends. In extreme situations, the outer sprocket/
bushing wear is greatly increased.
Clean tracks
Always clean the undercarriage at the end of the day or shift. Park the machine on a level surface to prevent distortion
of the track seals (Lubricated Track). If the temperature is cold, park the machine on a surface that will not freeze to
the track shoes.
NOTICE: When the tracks are unsupported off of the ground, do not run the machine at speeds above the step 10
position. This may result in damage to the drivetrain components.
