OPERATION
IC75 ENG 3-15
AVOID SUDDEN CHANGES IN DIRECTION WHEN
STEERING
•
Make direction changes in several smaller steering
movements.
•
Avoid sudden changes in direction.
This causes early wear on the lug and may cause the
crawlers to slip off.
DO NOT TRAVEL OVER HIGH HEAT LOCATIONS.
Do not try to travel over place subjected to high heat such
as steel plate that was placed in bonfires or under
scorching heat, asphalt or floorboards etc.
This causes serious abrasion or damage and breakage of
the lug.
OTHER ITEMS FOR CAUTION

THE RUBBER CRAWLERS
•
If fuel, transmission fluid or paint should adhere to the
rubber crawlers wipe it away quickly.

large salt content. Salt can cause the iron core to rust
or peel.
ALWAYS USE CORRECT TENSION ON THE SHOE
Attempting to change directions on terrain with different
levels or steps while the rubber crawler is still slack may
damage the rubber crawlers or cause them to come off
the rollers.
