25-2-1. Checking the rubber track (for rubber track type)
The rubber track in the following condition requires repair
or replacement. Ask your dealer to repair or replace it.
Height of lugs
• As the lug height "a" is reduced by wear, the tractive
force decreases.
If "a" becomes 0.2 in. (5 mm) or less, replace the track
with a new one.
• If two links or more of the steel cord inside the track are
exposed due to wear of the lugs, replace the track with a
new one.
Rubber track steel cord breakage
If half or more of either of the steel cords is broken, replace
the rubber track with a new one.
Coming off of the core metal of the rubber track
If the core metal of the rubber track comes off even at one
place, replace the rubber track with a new one.
Rubber track tension
If the rubber track tension is loose even after grease is put
in, the grease adjuster may be defective internally. Ask
your dealer to repair the grease adjuster.
