Michigan CAT Service Tips Michigan CAT is dedicated to helping you get the most out of your Cat machines. Every two months we will provide you with a special feature to give you service tips for your Cat equipment. This helpful hint is for your undercarriage. Undercarriage Track Adjustment Procedures Incorrectly adjusted track can cost you money - both in accelerated undercarriage wear and downtime. If the track is too tight, damaging nonproductive loads are placed on the undercarriage and its manual components.
Tight track accelerates track wear and reduces drawbar horsepower.
Adjustment procedures take only a few minutes and require only one person. Grease and oil are under extreme pressure and can penetrate the body causing injury. All Rights Reserved. Cat and Caterpillar are registered trademarks of Caterpillar, Inc.
