2.0 SAFETY 

2.1 Important Safety Information 

Read and understand this manual, the operation manual for the equipment the 
undercarriage is mounted to, and the manual for all attachments before operating, 
servicing or repairing an undercarriage. 

Most personal injuries occurring during equipment operation, maintenance, or repair are 
caused by failure to observe basic safety rules and precautions. In most cases, an injury 
can be avoided by recognizing hazardous situations before an injury occurs. 

A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person should also have the necessary 
training, skills and tools to perform these functions properly. 

Improper operation and maintenance of this product can be hazardous and may result in 
injury or death. 

Do not perform any lubrication, maintenance or repair on this product, until you have read 
and understood this Operators manual. 

Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this manual. If these hazard warnings 
are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons. 

Not every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard can be anticipated. 
The warnings in this publication are not all inclusive. If a tool, procedure, work method or 
operating technique that is not specifically recommended by Camso is used, you must 
satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and for others. 

You must also make sure that the product will not be damaged or be made unsafe by the 
operation, lubrication, maintenance or repair procedures that you choose. The 
information, specifications, and illustrations in this publication are on the basis of 
information that was available at time of printing. 

3.0 GENERAL INFORMATION 

3.1 Technical Description 

The Camso TTS allows machines to move on muddy and soft soils which have limited 
carrying capacity. The wide supporting surface of the track system also reduces soil 
compaction. 

Camso track systems are mounted on an axle frame. Certain equipment requires a 
special axle to be installed prior to track system installation. Please contact your dealer 
for more information. 

Camso track systems are designed to maximize the performance and productivity of your 
pull-behind applications with: 

•  Even weight distribution to easily and safely handle uneven terrain 
•  Excellent flotation to minimize soil disturbance (40 - 70% ground pressure reduction vs. tires) 
•  Maximum reliability to assure you get the job done anytime, anywhere
