Undercarriage and Track Inspection

What happens here

Inspect the track system and undercarriage. Look for signs of mud or dirt caked up underneath the tracks and chassis; a clean undercarriage suggests better maintenance. Check the track drive sprockets for wear; excessive sharpness on the teeth (razor-sharp or pinpoint) indicates heavy wear and likely replacement soon. Inspect the track itself for cuts, gouges, cracks, or excessive wear (e.g., worn-down C-shape tread). Check the track idlers (small wheels) that guide the track for damage or leaks (sealed bearings). Bring a piece of cardboard to slide under the machine to easily spot any fresh fluid drips or leaks from the belly.

Goal: Assess the condition of the tracks and undercarriage for wear and potential leaks
