•
Rubber shoes slip extremely easily on snow or frozen roads. Be careful
not to sleep when travelling or working on slopes.
•
The properties of rubber shoes change when working in extremely cold
place, and this will reduce the life of the rubber shoes.
•
Because of the properties of rubber, use the rubber shoes within a range
of –25 °C ÷ +55 °C.
•
When working, be careful not to damage the rubber shoes with the bucket.
To prevent the shoes from coming off, always maintain the correct tension.
If the tracks are slack, the shoes will come off under the following condition.
Even when the tension is correct, be extremely careful when carrying out
these operations:
•
When travelling over curbs, rocks or
places where there is a big difference in
level (approx. 20 cm), do not turn the
machine. When travelling over such
objects, always travel at right angles to
the object.
•
When travelling in reverse up a slope, do
not turn when moving from flat ground
onto the slope. If it is necessary to turn on
slopes, be sure to turn gradually.
•
Avoid travelling along the edge of a slope
or on rough ground with the track on one
side raised (with the machine tilting at
angle of more than approx. 10°) and one
side on the flat ground. To avoid damage
to the rubber shoes, travel with both
tracks on flat ground.
