MAINTENANCE
Periodic Maintenance Chart
Careful periodic maintenance will help keep your system in safe and
reliable condition. Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as
necessary.
Perform all inspection and service procedures at the intervals
outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart. Procedures are outlined in
further detail in the following pages.
NOTICE:
Failure to perform regular maintenance and adjustments at the
recommended intervals can result in premature wear and damage to
the track systems that will not be covered under warranty. Always
perform service as recommended in this manual and in the vehicle
owner’s manual.
WARNING!
Serious injuries may result if hands, feet or clothing become
entangled in moving parts. Stay clear of all moving parts. Keep hands and feet
clear of the track systems until the vehicle is stopped, the engine is off and the
park brake is engaged (if equipped). We recommend having your dealer perform
all track system service and alignment procedures.
For vehicles subjected to normal use, refer to the chart on page 29. For
vehicles subjected to severe or heavy use, refer to the maintenance chart
on page 30.
