Be sure to observe the following instructions, when using a machine equipped with rubber pad shoes or Road
Liner.
WORKING ENVIRONMENT
Use a machine equipped with rubber pad shoes or Road Liner mainly for jobs on the paved roads.

reduced.
Particularly the following jobsites must be avoided.
q
Jobsite with crushed concrete strewed or on sand
q
Jobsite with protruding edged objects like steel bar, glass and the like (Particularly a ride over the sheet
piles driven into the ground must be avoided.)

A ride over a concrete road shoulder, or jobsite on rocky terrain or in a river with many rocks

Be careful of machine skidding on the road covered with water, ice, snow or gravel. Take special care when
unloading a machine from a truck.

Use a machine equipped with rubber pad shoes or Road Liner in the ambient temperature range of -25 °C to
65 °C due to the properties of rubber.
WORKING CONDITIONS

quent steering, as shown in the picture, cause an excessive load on the rubber and there is a danger that it may
be damaged.
q
Durability of rubber pad shoes may not be covered with
warranty, if a special work equipment is mounted.
STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE
q
Take care that no oil or grease sticks to the rubber. If it
does, wipe it off immediately.

to the number of the links.
If there is any missing pad or liner, the rubber will be greatly
deformed and damaged.
