I've been around machinery my whole life, yet I'm pretty new to owning, and operating a small bulldozer. I've heard the term "cleaning undercarriage" but it's a new experience to me. Home, the soil ranges from boulder to gravel. A bucket of water disappears into the ground immediately. The little bit of use I've put the crawler to has left no deposits. "The land" three miles from home, is ledge, with a shallow layer of fine sand, ranging to very deep deposits of more fine sand. It's all covered with a thin layer of organic topsoil. The weekend was warm, and wet. The crawler gets a mass of mud on the track frame. I know I need to clean it, but a satisfactory tool has thus far evaded me. There are a hundred little crevices that can't be reached with a shovel. How is it done? I long for a freeze.
