Run-In-Periods, Pre-Start Procedures, Hot and Cold Engine starting procedures and some work site operations. If you have any questions about the operation of this machine, contact your Dealer before you begin operating.

ENGINE OPERATION During the first 20 hours of operation, or if you rebuild the engine, make sure you do the following: 1. Operate the machine with normal loads for the first eight hours. Do not work the engine hard at stall speeds (tracks stopped and the engine running at full throttle).

2. Keep the engine at normal operating temperature.

3. Do not run the engine at idle speeds for long periods of time.

BRAKE PEDAL Check the operation of the brake on a hard level surface when the machine is new.

TRACK SHOE BOLTS When the machine is new or if the track shoes have been removed, check the track shoe bolt torque after the first 20 hours of operation with a new machine or if the shoes are removed. Then, check the track shoe bolt torque every 100 hours of operation until the track shoe bolts remain tight. Tighten to a torque of 406 to 447 Nm (300 to 330 lb ft) for the standard link bolts and 430 to 470 Nm (318 to 346 lb ft) for the master link bolts. Do not over tighten the track shoe bolts.

CHAPTER 4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING IN HOT WEATHER To prevent damage to the machine, do the following: 1. Keep the coolant at the correct level in the coolant reservoir and in the radiator.

2. Test the radiator cap before hot weather starts.

Replace the cap as required.

3. Clean all dirt and debris from the radiator and engine area daily.

4. Check the condition of the fan drive belt.

5. Use lubricants of the correct viscosity.

6. Use the correct solution of ethylene glycol and water in the cooling system.

7. Check the dust valve for the air cleaner more frequently during extreme dust conditions.

8. Check the battery at 250 hours when conditions require.

9. Clean dirt from the precleaner daily.

OPERATING IN COLD WEATHER Cold weather conditions cause special problems.

During these conditions, your machine will require special attention to prevent serious damage. Cold weather maintenance will extend the service life of your machine.

1. BATTERY AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: Clean the battery and make sure the battery is at full charge.

NOTE: A fully charged battery at -17°C (0°F) has only 40 percent of the normal starting power.

Then, when the temperature decreases to -29°C (-20°F), the battery has only 18 percent of the power remaining.

If you add water to the battery and the temperature is below 0°C (32°F), make sure you charge the battery or run the engine for approximately two hours. This procedure will prevent battery freezing.

Inspect the battery cables and terminals.

2. LUBRICANTS: Use the correct viscosity oil in each component. As an example: SAE 30 engine oil at 0°C (32°F) increases the starting load by about 250 percent. Make sure you follow the recommended oil and filter service as shown in this manual.

3. FUEL SYSTEM: Check with your fuel supplier for the correct cold weather fuel. Engine power will be reduced if wax particles are in the fuel filters.

Make sure to check for water in the fuel system. Cold temperatures can cause water to collect in the fuel tank. Check the first stage fuel filter for water. If no water is found, extend the interval.

4-18

4. COOLING SYSTEM: Check the coolant mixture before you operate in cold temperatures. A mixture of 50% ethylene glycol and 50% water must be used in this machine. This mixture is used if the lowest ambient temperature is above -37°C (-34°F). If the ambient temperature is lower, adjust the mixture to 60% ethylene glycol and 40% water. It is recommended that ethylene glycol and water be used in your machine all year.

5. COLD TEMPERATURE STARTING AIDS: See your dealer for extra starting aids such as battery heater, coolant heater, engine oil heaters, etc.

6. GENERAL: Before you operate, move the machine slowly in LOW gear and actuate each hydraulic control for about ten minutes.

When you park the machine, make sure the track system is clean. In cold weather place the machine on planks. This will prevent the tracks from freezing to the ground.

If your machine is frozen to the ground, do not try to drive the machine. This will cause damage to the power train.

ENGINE STARTING AIDS

WARNING Using a starting aid on a machine equipped with a cold weather starting aid can cause an explosion.

COMPONENTS OF THE UNDERCARRIAGE To fully understand the undercarriage, it is important to understand the purpose of each component. It is also very important to know how the component functions with the other components in the system.

1. IDLER The idler carries the track chain around the front of the track frame. This assembly can slide forward or rearward on the track frame against the recoil spring to absorb any shock loads.

These shock loads can be from changes in the terrain or temporary material buildup on the tracks.

2. CARRIER ROLLER The roller is mounted on the top of the track frame to support the track chain between the drive sprocket and idler. This roller also helps to maintain alignment of the chain between the idler and drive sprocket.

3. TRACK CHAIN The track chain includes a number of link assemblies that are connected together to form a complete chain. Shoes are bolted to the track chain to provide traction for the machine. The drive sprocket rotates the track chain around the undercarriage assembly.

4. DRIVE SPROCKET The drive sprockets transmit engine power to the tracks. The drive sprockets do not support the weight of the machine.

5. TRACK ROLLERS The track rollers are mounted to the bottom of the track frame. These rollers carry the weight of the machine on the track chain.

4-26

6. TRACK ADJUSTER GREASE FITTING The track adjuster is a grease filled hydraulic cylinder used to maintain or adjust track tension.

To change track tension, add grease or remove grease from the track adjuster.

7. TRACK FRAME The track frames are attached to the machine chassis on each side. All of the track components, except the drive sprockets are attached to the track frames.

8. TRACK LINKS A number of track links make up the track chain assembly. Each link assembly consists of a right-hand and a left-hand link, the track pin is solid with sealed track chains and hollow with (Case Lubricated Track) chains, bushings and seals. Each link assembly is bored at both ends to hold the pins and bushing that connect the two links. The bushing is pressed into each link. A pin is inserted through the bushing and the next set of links is pressed onto the pin. It is important to understand the construction of the track chain. The pins and bushings of the sealed track are generally the first items of the undercarriage to wear. This wear will affect the rest of the co mpo nents in th e system.Wear parts are not covered under machine warranty.

FACTORS CONTROLLING UNDERCARRIAGE WEAR Undercarriage wear is an inevitable part of owning a track machine. Sooner or later, even the best undercarriage will need to be replaced.

You can prolong undercarriage life by understanding factors that contribute to wear.

Soil conditions are a major factor in determining the amount of life you can expect from an undercarriage.

Nonabrasive soils, such as silt and clay, cause the least amount of wear. Wet, sandy soils are the most abrasive and cause the most wear.

Figure 57

Severe packing of materials between undercarriage components causes wear by increasing track tension.

NOTE: Running tracks that are too tight reduces bushing and sprocket life 2.5 to 3 times.

Operating techniques and maintenance also greatly affect undercarriage life. Unlike the other wear fac tors th at y ou c an not c ontr ol , yo u c an d o something about the way you operate and maintain the machine.

NOTE: Avoid spinning the tracks as much as possible, especially in abrasive soil conditions.

NOTE: Avoid long runs at high speed and limit the amount of reverse travel.

NOTE: Avoid frequent reverse operation. If necessary to work in reverse, keep travel speed to a minimum.

Speed impact, turning and direction of operation greatly affect wear.

Working in rocky conditions and other surfaces, where the grouser bars do not penetrate, causes high impact and twisting loads on the track chains.

NOTE: When possible, work up and down a slope instead of across it. This decreases wear on roller flanges and link side rails.

Now that you know the major factors contributing to track wear and you are serious about reducing the maintenance and repair of your undercarriage, here are a few operating and maintenance tips to help you get the most life from your machine’s undercarriage.

Check track tension and clean the undercarriage more frequently when working in high packing conditions.

WEAR FACTORS YOU CAN CONTROL NOTE: Minimize the effects of packing by checking track sag frequently when working in mud, snow and wet sand. Packing can cause track jumping and banging.

NOTE: Tracks that are too tight rob power and cause early bushing and sprocket wear. Periodically check tracks for correct tension.

Constantly turning the crawler in the same direction will cause uneven wear.

Use the smallest track shoes possible to minimize track chain twisting. Limit the use of wide track shoes to flotation applications.

Park the machine on level ground to prevent seal distortion (Case Lubricated Track).

4-27

CHAPTER 4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Clean the undercarriage more often when operating in freezing conditions and park the machine on planks or a surface that the machine will not freeze to.

HOW TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF SEALED TRACK AND THE CASE LUBRICATED TRACK (CLT) NOTE: Turn the pins and bushings at the 100% wear limit. Operating past the 100% wear limit can cause the bushings to crack or to wear completely through to the pin.

NOTE: Letting the pins and bushings run to destruction results in accelerated wear of other components. Turn the pins and bushings to extend track life.

CASE EXTENDED LIFE TRACK (CELT) The Cas e Extended Life Track (CELT ) chai n incorporates a bushing that is free to rotate on the standard lubricated track bushing. This method allows wear to be distributed over the entir e circumference of the bushing and because the bushing is free to rotate it does not create the scrubbing action between the sprocket and the bushing as the conventional crawler track chain does.

The major reduction in wear on the CELT chain is the external bushing wear caused by the sprocket contact. The CELT bushing rotates with the sprocket.

The wear point is primarily between the outer and inner bushing, and therefore as the chain wears it may become somewhat more “noisy” under certain transporting conditions due to the wear between the inner and outer bushings. This is normal.

Recommended Application T h e C a s e E x t e n d e d L i f e Tr a c k ( C E LT ) i s r e c o m m e n d e d i n h i g h a b r a s i v e / l o w i m pa c t applications where bushing wear is severe. The narro west possible track s hoe that will giv e ad eq u ate fl otat io n s ho u ld b e u s ed t o o bta i n maximum life from the sealed and lubricated standard pin and bushing joint. Field testing in abrasive conditions has proven the CELT bushing will obtain up to twice the wear life as the conventional lubricated track bushings.

NOTE: If the machine has sat for extended periods of time or is working in corrosive environmental applications, it is recommended that the bushings be checked before operating the machine. If the bushings will not rotate, they should be loosened using an acceptable tool. This is especially necessary on new chains where the clearance between bushings is minimal.

FACTORS CONTROLLING UNDERCARRIAGE WEAR WEAR FACTORS YOU CAN NOT CONTROL

High Abrasiveness

You can not stop normal undercarriage wear - even if you have the best design and top quality parts. You can however, increase the undercarriage life if you understand the causes of wear. Soil and underfoot conditions can not be controlled. These include abrasive soils, impact, packing and moisture.

These soils contain a high amount of sharp, irregular shaped sand particles.

Abrasive Soils Each type of soil a machine works in has a different level of abrasiveness. Generally, the higher the abrasiveness, the higher the wear rate.

Moisture also plays a major roll in the abrasiveness of soils. A sand slurry will be less abrasive than a damp sand, especially if the sand is packing the sprocket roots and around the bushings. Wet abrasives act like grinding compounds.

Low Abrasiveness Silts and clays are in this category. When wet, this type soil feels slick and can be easily molded.

Moderate Abrasiveness Silts or clays that contain a low amount of rounded sand particles and enough moisture to stick together, are in this category.

4-28

Impact Impact is best described as the amount of grouser penetration in the ground. The effect of high impact loads can be reduced by reducing the machine speed and by using the smallest track shoes possible.

Low Impact Track shoe grousers will completely penetrate the gr ound surface with little or no rock or other irregularities.

High Impact Track shoe grousers will not penetrate the ground surface. Large rock or large irregularities cause high impact loads on the undercarriage system. Rocky terrain causes bending, breaking and chipping of the components. Reduce the machine speed and use the smallest track shoes possible.

CHAPTER 4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Packing

Track Shoes

Packing materials are any material that sticks to or packs around the moving components. To maintain correct track tension, the tracks must be adjusted as often as required when working in this type of soil condition.

The shoes must provide adequate traction and flotation but must be no wider than absolutely necessary. Flotation is the ability to stay on the surface of soft ground or mud. Correct flotation occurs when the grousers penetrate fully into the ground without letting the track shoes go below the surface.

Packing materials cause a mismatch between components, particularly between the chain and sprocket. The packing materials tighten the chain causing increased stress and strain on links, pins, bushings and the contact surfaces between mating parts. For example, as mismatch occurs due to packing in the sprocket root, each track bushing rides higher in the sprocket. This condition causes rapid and severe, forward and reverse wear and chain to sprocket “jumping” that is indicated by a loud “banging” noise. This results in high impact loads that causes additional wear and cracking.

This packing condition can also stop rollers from turning. When this happens, the track chain slides over that spot on the roller causing a flat spot.

Packing materials increase the abrasive effect of most material by not allowing the material to escape.

Wear is then accelerated.

When a packing problem continues install relieved track sprockets.

INTERMITTENT PACKING - Packing can also occur between some of the sprocket teeth. When this happens, the track is tightened and released rapidly causing the recoil spring to compress and release. A loud “banging” noise will result.

EXTREME REVERSE LOADING - During this operation the machine is backing up a hill and the top of both track chains are tight, compressing the recoil springs. You suddenly drive the machine forward.

The loud “banging” noise that you hear can be from one or both recoil springs releasing.

WEAR FACTORS YOU CAN CONTROL Good operating techniques and a good maintenance program will help you to get the longest life from your undercarriage.

Track Tension NOTE: Running tracks that are too tight reduces bushing and sprocket life 2.5 to 3 times.

Check the track tension frequently when you operate. When working in mud, snow and some sandy conditions, check the track tension more often.

Material will pack on the undercarriage parts and cause the tracks to become too tight. Always maintain the correct track tension and always clean the undercarriage when you are done for the day.

Track shoes that are too wide can have a damaging effect on many of the under- carriage components.

Because the middle of the track shoe is fastened to the track links, the links act as a fulcrum and must absorb or transmit any leverage or twisting forces that occur as the machine moves over uneven or rocky terrain. All of the other components (sprockets, track rollers and idlers) resist and restrict the twisting forces of the links. As a result, most of the wear and damage caused by this twisting action affects the links, pins, bushings and track plate mounting hardware. Listed below are some of the effects of wide track shoes: 1. Resistance to turning - results in wear on the shoe corners and twists the track chain.

2. Bending, cracking or breaking the track shoes, shoe hardware and links.

3. Constant problems with loose shoe hardware that makes the bolt holes larger.

4. Increased wear on links, roller flanges and idler flanges caused by a constant twisting of the track chain.

5. Decreased pin and bushing life or decreased link life due to elongated pin and bushing bores. This is a result of the twisted links.

6. Possible loss of lubricant in the Case Lubricated Track pins. This will result in early pin and bushing wear.

WEAR FACTORS YOU CAN PARTIALLY CONTROL Speed Unnecessary speed directly affects the wear rate on pins, bushings and sprockets. The faster the speed, the faster the wear rate. High speed reverse accelerates bushing and sprocket wear. Reverse speeds are faster than forward speeds. Wear rate is a function of speed and distance traveled, not just hours worked.

Impact High speed will increase impact loading when there is low grouser penetration on hard surfaces or when working in rock.

4-29

CHAPTER 4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Impact can cause structural problems such as bending, cracking or breakage of components. This can also affect pin and bushing retention and bushing cracking. And, if a chain is worn, can cause fractures.

Turning Wear rate increases with increased turning. Turning increases interference loads between moving components. Turning in reverse accelerates bushing and sprocket wear due to increased loads transferred from the rotation of the bushings against the sprocket in reverse.

Terrain Changes in the terrain changes the attitude of your machine the same way as the varying machine applications. This condition shifts the center of gravity and increases the weight of the machine on different parts of the undercarriage.

1. Working Uphill - This condition moves the w ei g h t o f t h e m a c h i n e r e a r w ar d c a u s i n g increased wear of the rear rollers and increases f o r w a r d d r i v e w e a r o f t h e s p r o c k e ts a n d bushings.

Track Slip Wear rate on all components increase when tracks are slipping. Track shoe grousers are affected due to increased sliding between the grouser and the ground.

Favored Side Operation Wear rates will increase on all components when only one side of the machine is favored. Wear increases as more power is applied to the favored side. Also, more packing and slippage will occur on the favored side that results in an increased wear rate.

Reverse Operation Avoid excessive use of reverse operation. This is not only nonproductive use of the machine but it also accelerates bushing and sprocket wear. Most speeds are faster in reverse than forward.

912285

Figure 58

2. Working Downhill - The machine weight is moved forward causing increased wear of the front rollers. However, due to the design of the track system, working downhill reduces the wear of the sprockets and bushings.

Applications Application is often used to describe underfoot conditions. In this section application will describe what the machine is doing, without regarding the under foot conditions.

Dozing - This operation shifts the machine weight to the front causing a faster wear rate on the front rollers and idlers.

Ripping - This operation will shift the machine weight toward the rear causing a faster wear rate on the rear rollers. Then, during severe applications, the sprockets and track bushings wear much faster.

Figure 59

CHAPTER 4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 3. Working on the Side of the Hill - This moves the weight of the machine toward the downhill side of the machine. Wear is increased on the rail sides, roller and idler flanges, bushing ends and track shoe ends that are on the downside of the hill.

Clean Tracks

Figure 60

4. Working on a Crown - The inner components carry the heaviest load. The wear is increased on the inner links, roller treads, idler treads and track plate ends. In extreme situations, the inner sprocket/bushing wear is greatly increased.

When the day is finished, always clean the undercarriage. Park the machine on a level surface to prevent distortion of the track seals (Case Lubricated Track). If the temperature is cold, park the machine on a surface that will not freeze to the track shoes.

Correct Tension CORRECT TRACK ADJUSTMENT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR THAT HELPS TO CONTROL UNDERCARRIAGE WEAR. Track sag of 38 to 51 mm (1-1/2 to 2 inches) must be maintained for all Case crawlers.

IMPORTANT: When operating in packing conditions (mud, snow, etc.) material will stick to the track parts and cause the track tension to be too tight. Check and adjust the track tension often during these conditions.

912288

Figure 61

5. Working in a Depression - The outer components carry the heaviest load. The wear is increased on the outer links, roller treads, idler tr ea ds , a nd t r ac k p la te e nd s . In ex t r em e situations, the outer sprocket/bushing wear is greatly increased.

The following chart shows track tension (% of tightness). A tight track requires more horsepower to move the machine, increases fuel consumption, and can reduce bushing and sprocket life up to 2.5 to 3 times.

TRACK MAINTENANCE Clean the tracks and undercarriage as required or at the end of the work shift. Park the machine on a level surface to prevent distortion of the track seals. If the temperature is cold, park the machine on a surface that will not freeze to the track shoes.

Check the track tension frequently when you operate. Check the track tension more often when working in extreme conditions. When material packs and collects on the undercarriage parts the tracks may become too tight.

Correct track adjustment is the most important factor that helps to control undercarriage wear. The correct track sag should always be maintained.

Procedure To Adjust Track Tension 1. Do not clean the tracks before adjustment.

2. Move the machine rearward and forward the length of the track. This will make the bottom of the track tight. Do not use the brakes to stop the machine.
