Maintenance Tips for Longer Final Drive Life
✔ Keep hydraulic oil clean
Contaminated oil quickly damages motors and planetary gears.
✔ Check seals regularly
Leaking seals cause dirt ingress and premature failure.
✔ Avoid overloading the machine
Too much track pressure overheats the travel motor.
✔ Inspect sprockets and tracks
Worn undercarriage increases strain on the final drive.
✔ Grease track adjusters properly
Under-tensioned or over-tensioned tracks shorten final drive lifespan.
✔ Perform routine temperature checks
Overheating is an early warning sign.
