Tracks
Service specifications
Clean: Periodically and when the machine has been working in mud
Check tension: Periodically
Check steel pad screw torques: Every 250 hours (after the first 50 hours during the run-in period)
ATTENTION: If the tracks are too tight, they wear quickly. If tracks are not tight enough, they wear quickly and the
links can catch on the sprocket wheel or slide off the idler wheel or the sprocket wheel. Clean the tracks after work.
Cleaning
When the machine has been working in mud, a reduction
in temperature can cause the mud to solidify.
1. Place the upperstructure at right angles to the under-
carriage. Use the attachment to press on the ground
and lower the boom until the track is raised off the
ground. Then place a block beneath the undercarriage
to relieve the attachment.
WARNING
Tip-over hazard!
Only raise the track as little as necessary.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
NOTE: For machines equipped with the dozer blade, the
machine can be lifted by completely lowering the dozer
blade and by using the attachment as a support on the
ground, opposite the dozer blade.
2. Turn the engine throttle button to maximum speed po-
sition.
3. Use the travel speed selector to select high speed.
