OPERATION
Using
Rubber
Tracks
Rubber tracks have
an
inherent weakness
due to their use
of
rubber. Be sure to follow
the prohibitions and cautions below to
prevent damage to the tracks and track
slippage.
Prohibited Actions
Do not travel or operate the machine
in
the
following places:
• Traveling or slewing on broken stone,
jagged base rock, iron rods, iron scraps
or the edges of iron sheets may damage
or cut the tracks.
• Traveling on riverbeds or places with many
soft rocks may cause the tracks to slip off
or be damaged due to rocks getting stuck
in
them.
• Do not use on the seashore. The salt may
corrode the metal cores
of
the tracks.
96
• Do not let fuel, oil, salt or chemical solvents
get on the tracks. These substances may
corrode the couplings of the tracks' metal
cores, resulting
in
rust or peeling. If these
substances get
on
the tracks, wipe them
off immediately using water.
• Traveling
on
roads directly after asphalting
or on hot surfaces, such as over fires, or
on iron sheets under strong sunlight may
result
in
irregular wear or damage to the
lugs.
• Do not move earth
in
places where the
rubber tracks may slip. Doing so may
increase lug
wear.
