Our midis do a lot of truck loading on hardstand. Pads cook early. Any maintenance tricks beyond keeping tension right?

Clean packing clay daily; rotate machines off hardstand work when you can. Slack tracks accelerate sprocket hooking.

Measure link height monthly. Sell/rebuild before pin bosses ovalise or you're into full wet undercarriage.
