1.0 FOREWARD
This manual provides important operation and maintenance instructions to maximize the
benefits of the Camso Trailed Track System (TTS) and to ensure performance in the field
for many years to come.
1.1 Literature Information
This manual was prepared with the latest information available at the time of publication.
Read this manual carefully before operating or servicing the undercarriage(s).
The photos, illustrations, and data used in this manual were current at the time of printing,
but due to possible production changes, your undercarriage may vary slightly. Camso
reserves the right make changes to new production undercarriages as necessary without
notification. This document must be considered as an integral part of the rubber track
system, it must always be available for reference near the machine, even in the case of
sale, and until end of life. Should the operations and maintenance manual supplied with
the track system be damaged or missing, please see your dealer to request another copy
and/or contact Camso immediately.
1.2 Maintenance Intervals
Use the pulling machine hour meter to determine servicing intervals. Calendar intervals
are also shown and can be used instead of hour intervals. Recommended service should
always occur on the interval that occurs first. Under extremely dusty or wet operating
conditions more frequent lubrication may be needed. Perform service on items at
multiples of the original requirement. For example, at every annual or 250 hour service
interval, also service items listed under monthly or 100 hours, weekly or 50 hours, and
daily or 10 hours.
1.3 Camso Product Identification Number
The track system PIN plates will display the model and manufacturing date and sequence
number on both LH and RH undercarriage system. Each undercarriage has a unique
serial #.
If a serialized axle is also provided by Camso, it will also have a plate installed in the
center of the axle. Track part # and serial # are embossed into the edge of the track
carcass for ease of identification.

2.0 SAFETY
2.1 Important Safety Information
Read and understand this manual, the operation manual for the equipment the
undercarriage is mounted to, and the manual for all attachments before operating,
servicing or repairing an undercarriage.
Most personal injuries occurring during equipment operation, maintenance, or repair are
caused by failure to observe basic safety rules and precautions. In most cases, an injury
can be avoided by recognizing hazardous situations before an injury occurs.
A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person should also have the necessary
training, skills and tools to perform these functions properly.
Improper operation and maintenance of this product can be hazardous and may result in
injury or death.
Do not perform any lubrication, maintenance or repair on this product, until you have read
and understood this Operators manual.
Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this manual. If these hazard warnings
are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons.
Not every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard can be anticipated.
The warnings in this publication are not all inclusive. If a tool, procedure, work method or
operating technique not specifically recommended by Camso is used, you must satisfy
yourself that it is safe for you and others.
You must also ensure the product is not damaged or made unsafe by the operation,
lubrication, maintenance or repair procedures that you choose. The information,
specifications, and illustrations in this publication are based on information that was
available at time of printing.
3.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
3.1 Technical Description
Camso Trailed Track Systems allow 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.
Camso track systems are mounted on an axle frame. Certain equipment requires a
special axle to be installed prior to track system installation. Please contact your dealer
for more information.
Camso track systems are designed to maximize the performance and productivity of your
pull-behind applications with:
• Even weight distribution to easily and safely handle uneven terrain
• Excellent flotation to minimize soil disturbance (40 - 70% ground pressure reduction vs. tires)
• Maximum reliability to assure you get the job done when tires are not able to do so

CPB-516 Operation and Maintenance Manual – TTS 30-40-45 Series (excluding 45-1814) (01-2020)6
TTS uses Camso rubber tracks, specifically designed for pull-behind applications to
provide:
• Reduced vibration during transport
• Lower turning resistance
• Minimal soil disturbance
• Long life
The patented undercarriage design incorporates independent movement of the midrollers
both front-rear and side-side delivering:
• Even weight distribution, allowing tracks to follow ground contours
• A smooth ride over rough terrain
• Reduced point loads increasing longevity of the undercarriage and implement
components
Besides the above listed characteristics, Camso rubber track systems introduce other
advantages:
•Reduced power requirements on soft soils
•Minimal possibility of rubber track de-tracking from the undercarriage
•Adequate roading speed
•Limited soil damage, even during end of field maneuvers
•Reduced risk of self-sinking in the mud in case of slipping

Frame
The main frame consists of a weldment or casting which hangs the front alignment
assembly and rear tension link. The front alignment yoke and rear tension link are cast
members, allowing for close tolerance machining and structural rigidity.
Axles
Front and rear axles are machined from the yoke castings, allowing for dimensional
stability and few moving parts. They feature oil bath hubs mounted on tapered bearings
and mechanical seals for extreme working conditions. Each hub has its own oil reservoir
with access port for maintenance and checking oil levels.
Idlers and Midrollers
The idlers have the function of guiding the rubber track by acting on the lateral surfaces of
the guide lugs. The midrollers distribute the majority of the machine weight to the ground.
They are mounted on pivoting arms connected to the frame reducing vibration and shock
loads.
Tensioning system
The tensioning system is located between the 2 rear idlers. The tension force is provided
by a mechanical spring mechanism. Track tension is provided by the spring and does not
need adjustment during operation and changing field conditions. Provisions are made to
compress the spring allowing for removal of idlers and track assemblies during
maintenance and servicing.
Rubber track
The rubber tracks are manufactured with high quality rubber and high strength steel
cabling inside for superior durability and reliability. The tread layout ensures good
flotation, excellent life, and self-cleaning characteristics.

3.5 Transport Limitations
Camso track systems are designed for field use and field operational speeds. High speed
transport, especially with loaded implements 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:
WARNING
Exceeding speed limitations may result in equipment and property
damage, injury, death and void warranty coverage.
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. Limiting weight and speed will help avoid track heat buildup
that could cause reductions in track life.
3.6 Minimum Turning Radius Limitations
Camso track systems operate best when running straight or in gentle turns. If a track
system is pivot or spot turned, the opportunity exists for soil and dirt to be ingested into
the system. Even though TTS has a tension recoil system, if that tension recoil is
