MAINTENANCE
The maintenance cycle depends mainly on the operating conditions.
Above-average stress, temperature fluctuations and exposure to dirt and water make it
necessary to maintain frequent maintenance to ensure safe and economical use.
15.1
Tightening tracks
With use, tracks tend to loosen. When operating with loose tracks, they tend to slip over the
driving wheel causing it to jump its housing or to work in precarious situation, thus damaging
wear to the housing.
To check track tightness, proceed as follows:
a.
Set the machine on a flat surface with compact
ground, better on an asphalt or stone pavement.
b.
Lift the machine and set it on blocks or supports
rated for the weight of the machine so that the
tracks are approximately
100mm
off the
ground.
c.
Measure the track midline vs. the horizontal line.
The reading must not be more than
10 - 15mm
.
If the distance is greater, proceed as
follows:
a.
Use the tipping handle to tip the dump box and
set it on blocks or supports rated for the weight
of the box.
