How to clean your undercarriage
For heavy equipment with tracks, getting dirty is a part of the job. But to protect the life of the undercarriage, regular cleaning and maintenance will go a long way to extended wear. Caterpillar recommends to power wash on a regular basis and always promptly remove any large rocks, mud or debris that get logged between the tracks. Many operators carry a shovel for just this purpose.

Maintenance Tips
Operation Checklist
Proper shoe selection and smart operation will make your undercarriage work better and last longer. Here are four ways to get the most from your Cat undercarriage investment.
Always use the narrowest shoe possible
while still allowing for adequate flotation
Minimize high operating speeds
in nonproductive situations, especially in reverse
Alternate turning direction
since turning in only one direction wears out one side of the undercarriage faster than the other
Monitor track spin
which reduces production while increasing wear on all undercarriage components
