Explanation:
(i) desgaste en el tren de rodaje xx%, (ii) desgaste en la ***cadena de tránsito*** xxx% por cada XXX horas de trabajo, (iii) desgaste de pisones

Possible translation:

From the context it appears to me that this has to do with the drive train of a vehicle. One would have to know the manufacturer's terms to describe the parts. Pizones is a misspelling and should be pisones.
