When Should I Use Tracks on My Skid Steer?

Advantages of Track Machines for Specific Applications

Understanding when to use tracks on your skid steer can greatly enhance your operational efficiency.

Best Applications for Tracks:

  • Landscaping: Track machines are ideal for landscaping operations, particularly in residential areas where minimizing ground disturbance is crucial.
  • Muddy or Swampy Conditions: Tracks perform better in loose or wet soil conditions by dispersing the weight of the machine, allowing for improved traction and stability.
  • Uneven Terrain: Tracks provide better stability on uneven ground, making them suitable for various landscaping and excavation tasks.

Operational Mechanics:

  • The tracks on a track machine do not move; instead, the machine moves over the tracks, helping to distribute weight evenly.
