I've had my first dozer, a JD650G LT, direct drive Powershift, for several months. I am working on a new pond and there's a little mud. I worked a couple of days without cleaning and some mud built up on the undercarriage.
My question: If you have the means to do so, would you wash your undercarriage at the end of each day? I'm only a couple of hundred feet from high pressure water that makes the job easy, but it takes time and I have some concern that water penetrates bearings and seals easier than dry dirt. Of course I drag off as much dirt as I can reach with a shovel and pick.
So, what would you do, wash it every use?
thanks,
Bob
