9.5 ROAD TRAVEL GUIDELINES
NOTICE
ALWAYS COMPLY WITH THE LOCAL ROAD SAFETY RULES AND REGULATIONS SPECIFIC TO
FARM VEHICLES WHEN TRAVELING ON PUBLIC ROADS WITH YOUR TRACK SYSTEM.
•
Using rubber tracks on roads requires a minimum of precaution. Following are information about track behavior under
certain conditions and what you can do to maximize the longevity of your system:
•
Like a tire, the worst enemy of a rubber track is heat.
•
The combination of high speeds and heavy loads, as well as uneven road conditions, may lead to track overheating
and premature damage to rubber tracks, wheels and other components.
•
To avoid this kind of inconvenience, Soucy Track recommends adjusting your speed on long distance trips, hot
pavement or uneven road surfaces.
•
To find out if a rubber track is overheating, the rule of thumb is to hand feel the internal wheel path of the track as
well as the rubber surface of the wheels. If your hand can stand the heat, the track is not overheating. Please ensure
verifying the inside wheels and corresponding wheel path (wheel point toward the vehicle) as they may be affected
by concave road.
•
If overheating occurs, simply try slowing down or, if possible, unload the vehicle.
