What happens here

Using the excavator's boom and bucket, lift one side of the machine so that the tracks are suspended off the ground. Then, operate the tracks independently, moving them forward and backward. Observe the speed, power, and smoothness of the track rotation. This test verifies the strength and functionality of both track drive hydraulic motors and checks for any binding or uneven movement.

Goal: Verify the strength and proper functioning of track drive hydraulic motors.
