- Component selection – ensure the components selected match the environment and the application of the machine.
- Record the start point, when installing the components, in both hours and distance
- Inspect the undercarriage regularly, focus on the percent worn, and look for any potential causes of accelerated wear. A change in the wear rates between inspections will be a tell-tale sign this is occurring. Also review the condition of the frames at each inspection.
- Plan the mid-lives, if this makes economic sense, turn Pins and Bushes, re-grouse shoes, swap Idlers and track rollers from front to back.
- Forecast the end point for the undercarriage replacement ensuring the maximum % wear is achieved across most components
