3.0 GENERAL INFORMATION

3.1 Technical Description

The Camso CTS allows machines to move on muddy and soft soils which have limited carrying capacity. The wide supporting surface of the track system also reduces soil compaction.

The Camso CTS can be mounted on the tractor with no modifications to the tractor, ensuring quick and easy changes from tracks to wheels and vice versa.

The Camso CTS application on tractors does not alter the distribution of the weight on the tractor axles so there is little to no difference in driving a tractor with CTS installed or wheels installed.

The Camso track systems have been designed to minimize the stresses on the tractor when on firm soil, without compromising the flotation characteristics in the worst working conditions.

The 30/36D23MC and 30/36D22MC models feature a suspension system to improve driver comfort in terms of shock and vibration reduction and improved roading and field ride.

Besides the above listed characteristics, the Camso rubber track system introduces other advantages.

Reduced power absorption on soft soilsAlmost no possibility of rubber track de-tracking from the undercarriageAdequate roading speedLimited damages on the soil even during end of field maneuversReduced risk of self-sinking in the mud in case of slippingGreat self-cleaning capacity of the rubber track and consequently good traction in all working conditions

3.2 Track System Components

Suspended Frame (30/36D23MC & 30/36D22MC)

The CTS installed on the rear axle has a suspended frame. The suspended frame is made up of two pieces with the interposition of a rubber spring and the connection of articulation links in the front. Both the frames are welded structures, successively machined in the component couplings to ensure high dimensional precision

Fixed Frame (24D17C and 24D18C)

The CTS on the front axle features a fixed frame. The fixed frame is a welded one piece structure. Component mounting locations are machined to ensure high dimensional precision.

Sprocket/Drive Wheel

Rear driving wheel features 23 bars or 22 bars, and front driving wheels features 18 bars. The drive bars are tempered to maximize wear resistance on sandy soil. Outer rings offer a suitable lateral support to the rubber track.

Axles

Axles support the idlers and midrollers. They feature hubs mounted on tapered bearings and mechanical seals for extreme working conditions.

Idlers and Midrollers

The idlers have the function to guide the rubber track by acting on the lateral surfaces of drive lugs. Inner sides of idlers are subject to wear, but can be rotated to extend life.

CBP-436(2017) Operation and Maintenance Manual-CTS Tractors Camso | 12-17 | 12

The midrollers distribute the majority of the weight of the machine to the ground. They are mounted on pivoting arms connected to the frame by spherical rubber joints reducing vibration and shock loads.

The idlers and midrollers are vulcanized with a suitable rubber compound to protect the track from debris and prevent material build up on the wheels. The width of the wheels spans the width of the track, ensuring even load distribution across the width of the track.

Tensioning system

The track front axle is mounted on a pivoting arm on which a cylinder acts to keep the track tensioned. The tension load is provided by a hydraulic circuit featuring a nitrogen accumulator.

Rubber track

The rubber tracks are manufactured with high quality rubber and high strength steel cabling inside for superior durability and reliability. The engagement with the sprocket/drive wheel is positive ensuring high tractive efforts in all conditions. The tread layout ensures high traction and self-cleaning characteristics.

Oscillation Limiter Brackets

Oscillation limiters are installed to prevent the CTS for over-oscillating resulting in possible machine and/or CTS damage and machine downtime.

3.7 Maximum SpeedsDue to the differences from the available tire sizes and the size of the drive wheel on the track system, a speed reduction of up to 40% can be expected. Depending on tractor transmission type, a slight increase in speed may be obtained by adjusting the tire size to the smallest available in the tractor settings.

Maximum Tractor Speed on Tires

Approximate Maximum Speed with CTS

26 MPH (41 kph)

14.5 – 16 MPH(23 – 26 kph)

31 MPH(50 kph)

17 - 19 MPH(27 – 30 kph)

3.8 Transport LimitationsCamso track systems are designed for field use and field operational speeds. High speed transport, is not recommended, and may result in track damage due to heat. If extended transport is required between operating locations, the following speed and duration limits should be observed:

Transport Speed (Maximum)

Transport Duration (Maximum)

17 - 19 MPH (27 - 30 kph) 45 min.

14 - 16 MPH(23 - 26 kph) 60 min

If additional distances are required, a 30 minute cool down period is recommended before transport is resumed. Absolute speed and duration levels may vary, depending on system type and ambient conditions, but as listed, are appropriate limitations to avoid system heat buildup that could cause reduction in track life.

3.9 Operational Guidelines

Any application differing from the ones prescribed in this manual is to be considered untested and improper and proper operation may not result.

The engagement between sprocket/drive wheel and track does not allow any slip. The correct track tension is required for full engagement of the track and sprocket/drive wheel: check the tension pressure daily as described in maintenance section to ensure efficiency in traction and brake phases.

Tractors equipped with Camso track systems can work in extreme conditions: foroperator and machine safety, be sure to know your surroundings.

Do not drive faster than 6 mph (10 kph) on the road downhill. Be careful in fields with steep slopes. Long runs on transverse slopes increase the wear on the sides of the guide lugs and idlers.

Camso CTS is free to pivot around the axle to follow ground conformation. Oscillation stops should be installed at all times to avoid over oscillating the track system. Should big irregularities in ground surface have to be crossed, check for interferences with tractor or implement and move forward slowly to avoid over oscillating the undercarriage.

Overall width and height of tractor with Camso track systems could differ from the original width and height with tires. Be sure to know actual machine height and width, as well as width restrictions, prior to operation.

Set the speedometer to have the correct speed indication. Calibration ratio is given by using a rear wheel radius of 21.65 in (550 mm).

Tractors with tracks are more rigid than ones with tires. Cross large ground irregularities with suitable speed reduction and/or with a proper incidence angle. In particular, when high, sharp bump has to be crossed, move forward slowly to avoid shocks on the machine.

Use caution when using heavy front 3-point hitch applications.

Crossing ditches at any angle should be avoided with heavy 3 point applications.

Steering angle adjustments should be set to the maximum.

Due to the increased surface area of the front axle, steering will be difficult whenstationary or moving slowly. However, when the machine is moving, steering performance will be similar to a wheeled tractor.

In maximum turn and maximum front axle oscillation, the tracks may contact the front housing, use caution when operating in these conditions to prevent machine or track and track system damage.

CBP-436(2017) Operation and Maintenance Manual-CTS Tractors Camso | 12-17 | 16

Camso track system does not damage standard road-bed constructions: the operator must know and respect road traffic laws.

Rubber tracks have not been designed for an extended use on the road. Camso is not responsible for track and system damages resulting from extended road use. Long road periods and/or roading at maximum speed may cause premature wear or failure of the track or wheels. To reduce damage during roading, decrease overall machine weight anddecrease machine speed. See “Transport Limitations” section for further information.

Long runs on side slopes increase the wear on the side of drive lugs and idlers.

Keep material out of the undercarriage. Inspect undercarriage daily and remove any build up material as necessary. Depending on ground conditions, this may need to be completed more frequently.

If a machine becomes stuck, clear away as much material from the undercarriage prior to pulling the machine out.

If working in muddy or sticky ground conditions, installation of drive sprocket scrapers are recommended. Drive sprocket scrapers prevent material from building up on the sprocket which may result in damage to the belt.

3.10 Track Break-in Procedures

Drive lug wear is reduced when correct break-in procedures are followed. During the break-in period, rolling components undergo a polishing-in process to achieve a smooth steel to rubber interface with the drive lug. Rubber uses dust and dirt as a dry lubricant during break-in to minimize heat and reduce rubber stickiness. New tracks should be exposed to dry and dusty soil conditions as soon as possible. Operation without dust or soil in the system, especially during high speed roading, generates high levels of damaging heat. If roading must be done, a dry lubricant such as soil, talc, oil dry or cat litter should be applied to the drive lugs periodically during roading until exposure to the field commences.

4.0 TRACK SYSTEM INSTALLATION

4.1 Handling of the Track SystemThe track systems can be handled by fork lifts lifting the machine from the base or by hoists using textile bands.

WARNINGDanger of crushing. Use suitable lifting devices (capacity at least 6600 lbs(3000Kg)), wear safety equipment and observe the safety rules.

WARNINGIn case of a fork lift use for handling operations, be careful not to damage the rubber track. Metal chains or cables are not recommended.

WARNINGUse a chock between each idler wheel and track to prevent the track system from rolling if using a forklift and handling the track system by the base.

WARNINGWhen setting a track system on the ground but off of the machine, place track system on a flat surface and place a wheel chock in front of and to the rear of the track system to prevent the track system from rolling.

4.2 Tractor PreparationEach tractor brand/model has small differences that require different adapters to install the CTS. Individual installation kits are required. Please contact your Camso Dealer to ensure you have the proper installation kit.

In order to make the installation easier, some shields may have to be removed. In the case these or other components interfere with the tracks, the Customer must refer to the tractorManufacturer for permission to remove or replace them.

WARNINGInstallation of the rubber track system to the axle adapter must engage fully on the flange plane. Any interference with the flange with the un-machined central area of the final drive shaft must be removed. Should the center pilot diameter of the adapter or spacer be not correct or for any other installation problem, contact your Dealer or the Manufacturer.

4.3 Track System Installation onto the MachineInstallation instructions specific to the machine are included in the installation kit. If these instructions are missing, please contact your Camso Dealer or go to Camso.co for a copy of the proper installation instructions.

After installation of tracks onto machine, drive machine around for 5 minutes or 0.6 miles (1 km)of travel. Recheck mounting torque of bolts pre-lubricated with oil before installation.Mounting bolts should be torqued to 370 ft-lbs (500 Nm) for machines using M20 bolts and 500 ft-lbs (670 Nm) for machines using M22 bolts.

5.0 SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

5.1 General informationThe three factors: proper use, regular inspections, and maintenance are essential to ensure proper performance and reliability of the Camso track system.

It is strongly suggested to respect the recommended maintenance and inspection schedule in this section for best track system life, proper performance, and reduced downtime.

Before any operation, clean all debris and material from the track system and make a general analysis of the machine condition. Pay attention to components subject to wear such as rubber parts: the quick identification of unusual wear, particularly of the track. Identifying and resolving issues early reduces downtime and operating costs.

WARNINGLubricants should not to be poured in the environment. Collect them in suitable containers and deliver to the licensed companies for waste disposal in accordance with the present law in force.

Avoid any contact of the lubricant with the rubber parts. If oil is spilled ontothe track, clean oil from track surface with dry towel. Do not use cleaning solvents or diesel fuel to clean oil from track surface as track damage may occur.

6.3 Track alignment adjustmentThis Camso track system is designed without a track alignment adjustment. Tracks will tend to self-align themselves and there is no need to adjust the alignment of the track.

6.4 Track system inspectionTrack SystemInspect track system for material build-up on frames, drive sprocket and wheels. Clean material from undercarriage.

Oscillation Limiting Brackets and HardwareInspect the oscillation limiting brackets and hardware for worn, broken or loose parts. Also inspect oscillation brackets for mud and material build up that will limit travel of the track system.Clean material from oscillation brackets to allow full movement of the undercarriages.

Drive SprocketInspect drive sprocket for worn surfaces and sharp edges. If sprocket becomes worn, replace the drive sprocket. Watch for material build up on the face of the drive sprocket. Clean any material build up on the face of the sprocket to prevent damage to the inner track surface. Also watch for mud, debris or ice packing in the drive sprocket. If too much material builds up in the sprocket or on the sprocket face, track engagement may be affected and damage to the track may occur.

Drive Sprocket ScrapersDrive sprocket scrapers prevent excessive build up of material on the surface of the drive sprocket. Material build up on the drive sprockets results in damage to the inside surface of the tracks. If material build up is identified, adjust scrapers so that there is no more than 3 mm gap between the scrapers and the drive sprocket or if needed, install new drive sprocket scrapers. Drive sprocket scrapers are available from Camso.

Idlers and rollersCheck the general condition of vulcanized midroller and idler wheels.

Review the inner side of the wheels where they contact the drive lugs. Excessive wear in these areas can be caused by continuous hillside work: see the “Proper use, precautions, not authorized use” section.Look for material imbedded into the surface of the idlers and midrollers. Remove imbedded objects to prevent damage to the inside surface of the track.Inspect for material build up on the rubber surface. If material build up is related to the rubber coating worn too thin, replace midroller or idler.Inspect for missing or damaged rubber surface. Replace midrollers or idlers if any of the following conditions exists:

o More than 1/3 of the rubber is missing all the way around the wheelo Anytime the rubber is missing all the way across the width of the wheelo The wheel has a flat spot or does not turn smoothly.o The steel core is bent, cracked or damaged

Rubber track drive lugsSharp cuts could be visible at the base of track drive lugs, even after a short work period. This is related to the track bending and the forces applied to the drive lugs during use on the undercarriage. The cuts are typically spread randomly and stop growing once they are some millimeters in depth. These cuts are typical and do not compromise the performance or life of the track.

Track carcassInspect track surface to remove imbedded stones or debris. This contamination can work its way into the track and damage the steel cable.Steel wire may come out from the track carcass without affecting the performance of the track. Remove loose wires by cutting them at the rubber surface.

Track treadMuddy soils usually cause limited wear, while roading long distancescan bring about accelerated tread wear. Due to the crown of the road, and deflection in the system, the tread closest to the tractor will tend to wear faster than the tread on the outer portion of the track.

Should the height difference between the tread measured on ¼ and on ¾ of the track width differ averagely of more than 5 mm (see the picture), swap tracks side to side on the machine following the instructions of “Track exchange side to side”paragraph in “Scheduled maintenance”section.
