OPERATION
CAUTIONS
Observe the following cautions when
operating the machine:
• Avoid changing course abruptly or spin-
turning on concrete surfaces whenever
possible. Doing so may wear or damage
the rubber tracks.
• Avoid drops that may expose the rubber
tracks to strong shocks.
• Salt, potassium chloride, ammonium
sulfate, potassium sulfate, and triple
superphosphate of lime can damage the
tracks. If any of these substances gets on
the tracks, wash if off thoroughly with
water.
• Do not let the sides of the rubber tracks
rub against concrete or walls.
• Be especially careful on snowy or frozen
surfaces in winter, as the tracks tend to slip
in such conditions.
• Use rubber tracks at temperatures
between –25°C to +55°C (–14°F to 131°F).
• When storing the rubber tracks for long
periods of time (three months or more), do
so indoors in a place not exposed to direct
sunlight or rain.
HANDLING RUBBER TRACKS
PREVENTING THE RUBBER TRACKS
FROM COMING OFF
Observe the following cautions to prevent
the track from coming off:
• Always keep the tracks at the proper
tension.
• When traveling over a large step such as a
cobblestone or rock (20 cm (8 in.) or
deeper), climb up the step at the right
angle and do not change courses on top of
the step.
• When climbing in reverse, do not change
directions at the point where the slope
starts.
