Operation
Adjusting the track width of the K008-5
For models with extendable track width, adjust the desired track
width prior to operation. To do this:
Move the selector lever for the dozer/extendable track width (1)
fully to the right (figure/ ).
Using the dozer control lever (1), adjust the desired track width.
To decrease the track width from 860 to 700 mm, move the
dozer control lever forward (figure/ ).
To increase the track width from 700 to 860 mm, move the doz-
er control lever backward (figure/ ).
After adjusting the track width, immediately move the selector
lever for the dozer/extendable track width fully to the left (figure
above, position ).
Set blade width to narrow track width:
Pull out locking bolt (1).
Fold away dozer enlargement (2) behind dozer.
Reinsert locking bolt (1).
Mortal danger by crushing!
Risk of being crushed between chains and the swivel frame of the machine when adjusting the track
width.
- Lower the dozer, boom, arm and attachments to the ground.
- Turn off the engine and secure it against restarting by removing the ignition key.
- Do not work under the machine.
The hydraulic functions for setting the track width, operating the dozer, swinging the boom and op-
erating the auxiliary port are not locked by the control lever lock and can be activated.
To change the track width, both track width cylinders
need to be either fully extended (standard track width)
or retracted (narrow track width).
Risk of unexpected movement of the dozer!
If the selector lever is positioned incorrectly, this may lead to an unexpected adjustment of the dozer.
- Make sure that the dozer/extendable track width selector lever (1) is set all the way to the left.
Do not operate the machine with the narrow track width (700 mm), there is a risk of tipping. Except
when driving on narrow flat areas, always use the standard track width (860 mm).
Carry out these tasks on both sides of the dozer.
