  4. Select Model – Select from drop down list or begin typing the name of the Model you wish to select in the drop down box. This is the manufacturer’s model designation. All undercarriage components/part numbers are linked to this model number, so it needs to be correct.

  6. Enter LTD - This value is generally the same as the SMU unless there has been a meter change for this equipment.

Setup the Undercarriage

Once your equipment has been set up, you will need to add Undercarriage components to it. For more details on setting up an Equipment, please refer to the article “Setting up, Searching for and Editing Equipment”.
There are small differences between initial setup and subsequent editing. Initial setup is covered first and editing is further down the page.

Step 1: Navigate to Equipment Undercarriage:

Option 1 – From the Equipment Setup Screen: After successfully having setup your equipment you will be asked if you want to setup the undercarriage.

Option 2 – From the menu: My Equipment > Setup Undercarriage > On Equipment

Select either On Equipment or In Inventory – In this first example you will see setting up Undercarriage on Equipment

Initial Setup

Before you are able to setup undercarriage components, you must first setup or select an equipment. If you select option 1 then you will have setup up a new equipment already. Selecting option 2 will result in you being asked to select equipment via the following screen.

Select Customer - Select from drop down list or begin typing the name of the Customer you wish to select in the drop-down box.

Select Jobsite - Select from drop down list or begin typing the name of the Jobsite you wish to select in the drop-down box.

Select Equipment – Select from the drop-down list

The Make, Model and Family will appear below – then click next

 

After the equipment is selected, the steps are the same for both option 1 & 2 are the same.

  1. Enter ‘Chain & Frame Details’ and press next - this will not appear for all families
    Serial numbers for Chains and Frames on each side can be entered on this screen, or they can be left blank and the system will generate a unique serial number for them automatically.
    Enter the life & date of the chain/frame when installed on the equipment and the equipment SMU at install of the chain/frame.
  2. Add all components to equipment. Each component will display a green tick when the row is validated. Press next when done.
    A number of components will be pre-selected by default because they are always on the equipment you are setting up.
    There will also be the option to add further components. *NOTE* You will need to know what components the equipment has before setting up.
    Fill in all other required fields; Position, Brand, Budget Life, CMU, Cost & if required Size & Grouser.

    To view component notes mouse over the component when in the drop down menu.
  3. Review all information, if it’s all correct press ‘Submit’, if not press ‘back’ and edit accordingly.

The process is the same for all equipment; dozers, mining shovels, excavators & drill rigs.

Mining shovels will not display child components during setup of equipment, but will be visible on the ‘Inspection’ screen.

Editing previously setup equipment

Navigate to Find & Edit Equipment: My Equipment > Find & Edit Equipment

The main difference between initial setup and editing, is that during initial setup, components are added to both sides simultaneously. Once saved, Left and Right sides are handled independently.

Once an inspection has been recorded on a piece of equipment, you cannot edit components from this screen. Component changes are then handled through the popup on the ‘Inspections’ page.
