ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is an adapter for rendering an earth mover amphibious, comprising a buggy assembly having a pair of buoyant pontoons and tracks that are driven around the pontoons by hydraulic motors situated coaxially with drive sprockets for the track. The track is driven by the motor without an intermediate chain drive, thus avoiding certain environmental and personal dangers.
