MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: Regular inspection, adjustment and
lubrication of the Track System is essential to its
good running order and safe operation. Users are
responsible to perform maintenance and regularly
adjust their Track System. The “Maintenance”
section provides the necessary information to
perform adequate maintenance on the Track
System.
CAUTION: Failure to do regular maintenance at
the prescribed intervals and perform the
preventive adjustments indicated in the
maintenance schedule can result in premature
wear and important breakage on the Track System
that will not be covered under the warranty. Users
are responsible to follow the maintenance
schedule provided by the manufacturer.
CAUTION: Do not use a brake cleaning solvent to
clean the Track System. This may damage sealing
components and stickers.
The maintenance schedule has been established
in order to provide optimum durability for your
Track System. The type of usage and the
conditions in which the Track System is used,
have a direct bearing on the frequency of
maintenance actions to perform. After inspection
of your Track System, you will be able to
determine if the recommended maintenance
intervals are correct or to adjust them as needed.
For optimum performance and maximum
durability, please refer to the maintenance chart
below.
For more details on the maintenance program,
consult the Maintenance specifications on
page 18 and page 19.
WARNING
Do not insert hands or feet into or near the
System unless the engine is off, and the vehicle is
stopped with the security brake engaged.
