n Track Alignment
Periodically check that the track is
centered and running evenly on the
slide rails. Misalignment will cause
excessive wear to the track and slide
rail.
1. Safely support the rear of the
machine with the track off the
ground.
2. Start the engine and apply a small
amount of throttle until the track
turns slowly at least five complete
revolutions. Stop the engine and
let the track come to a stop (do not
apply brakes).
3. Inspect track alignment by l ooking
through the track window to make
sure the rails (A) are evenly
spaced on each side. If the track runs to the left, loosen left
locknut and tighten the left adjusting bolt. If the track runs to the
right, loosen right locknut and tighten the right adjusting bolt.
4. After adjustments are complete, tighten locknuts and torque idler
shaft bolts to 35 ft. l bs. (47.5 Nm).
5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to verify proper alignment.
