Steps to track wear on your excavator undercarriage

If you want to prevent excavator breakdown, then you should daily inspect your excavator track. Other than excavator track, the excavator undercarriage parts should also be inspected. Wear in undercarriage parts like idlers and rollers are very hard to find because it is permanently sealed. Look for any moisture or any fluid leakage around the seal, which indicates the failure of the part. If the teeth in the excavator sprocket look like it is more pointed then it indicates that the sprocket is worn out. For more information, visit http://cleantrackusa.com/
