I spotted this and have never seen anything like this on a man lift.  I think they brought this in for some traction in the mud since it has been raining here for what seems months now  Jason

It looks like a set of skid loader tracks. That's a pretty cool find! -Tyler

They've been around like that for a few years, at least. The first time I saw one was at the construction of the new Busch Stadium back in 2004.

I've never seen a 3 axle manlift before but it makes sense distributing more of the weight. Those tracks however, as stated by Zaxis450LC and STLModels, are designed for skidsteers and have been around for many years. http://www.skidsteersolutions.com/Skid_Steer_Tracks_s/17.htm Rowan.

That probably a custom job.
I think the middle axle is probably welded on the the machine then has has the tracks wrapped around it.
It dosent look like a manufactured job IMO

Please use this before clicking "post"??? You may be surprised with what you see!
