HANDLING RUBBER
CRAWLERS
Rubber crawlers have an inherent weakness,
lack of strength, due to their use of rubber.
Be sure to observe the prohibitions and
cautions below to prevent the crawlers from
being damaged or coming off.
PROHIBITIONS
Do not travel or operate the machine in the
following places:
• Traveling and slewing on crushed rock,
extremely rough hard rock, steel beams,
scrap iron, or near the edges of steel plates
will cause damage to the rubber crawlers.
• Traveling on riverbeds or places where
there are large numbers of boulders may
cause the stones to get caught and
damage the crawler or make the crawler
come off.
• Do not use the machine on the seashore.
The salt may corrode the steel core.
• Do not let fuel, oil, salt or chemical solvents
get on the crawlers. These substances
may corrode the bonding of the steel cores
on the crawlers, resulting in rust or peeling.
If any of these substances gets on the
crawler, immediately clean it off with water.
• It will cause an irregular wear or damage to
the lugs, if the machine travels on irregular
surfaces such as recently paved with
asphalt, exposed to a bonfire or of hot iron
sheets under the blazing sun.
• Do not move earth in places where the
rubber crawlers may slip. Doing so may
speed up lug wear.
