WARNING
and Bushings
If you lose a track (break a track
shoe or vehicle throws a track),
extreme caution must be
exercised in maintaining control.
Immediately release accelerator
and let vehicle coast to a stop. Do
not apply braking action-brake
pedal, laterals, pivot, or any type
of steering controls. Braking
causes vehicle to pull to the active,
or good, track and could result in
a rollover. If absolutely necessary,
apply braking action ONLY if
vehicle is approaching a ravine, a
cliff, or if you perceive the
outcome to be catastrophic,
probably resulting in fatalities.
When rollover is imminent, all crew
members should immediately
withdraw inside vehicle, tighten
seatbelts, and hold onto a secure
fixture until vehicle comes to a
complete stop.
