Tracks
Mounting the tracks
DANGER
Risk of rolling away
With missing or loose tracks (track tension slack), the snow groomer will lose its ability to brake prop-
erly and may roll off the tracks.
►
Secure the snow groomer to prevent it from rolling.
►
Never disassemble both tracks at the same time.
►
Never slacken the track tension on steep slopes or on impracticable ground.
NOTICE
Installation
►
If possible, use another vehicle to pull the snow groomer over ramps onto the rolled out tracks.
►
Rolled-up tracks should be secured at their ends using a suitable connection element (minimum
diameter
3 mm
(0.1 in)).
Figure 84: Track mounting
If no suitable hoisting cranes or crane lorries (truck mounted cranes) are available, assemble the
tracks as follows:
1.
Park the snow groomer on level ground.
2.
Carry out a visual check of sprocket, tensioning and running wheels.
3.
Remove straps from rolled-up tracks.
4.
Roll out the tracks in front of the snow groomer, they have to be parallel and set at a distance
from each other so the wheels will roll in the track guides of the crosslinks.
5.
Perform visual check of the tracks (for wear, damage).
6.
Ensure each track is in the correct orientation (front - rear).
7.
Drive the snow groomer onto the tracks via a ramp so that the tracks do not jump up between
the running wheels.
8.
Using the "Track Tension" display menu, set the tensioning wheels to the back ("Slacken the
Tracks").
