TRACK REMOVAL
In some cases removing the track is necessary to
work on some undercarriage components.
Using a floor jack or a forklift, jack the POSI-
TRACK off the ground (Fig. 68) until there is
approximately 4 inches between the bottom of
the track and the floor. Jack stands specially de-
signed for the POSI-TRACK can be purchased
through your POSI-TRACK dealer (PN # 454-
876)
For occasional track tensioning, the screw jack
that comes with the machine is fine, however, a
remote hydraulic jack is best for track removal
and installation. A remote hydraulic jack with
all the necessary extensions can be purchased
from your POSI-TRACK dealer ( PN # 455-
3445)
1. On the inside and the outside of the under-
carriage, there are two long slots. Loosen the
bolts (A) that are in these slots (DO NOT RE-
MOVE). (Fig. 69)
2. Place the jack between the sliding planetary
mount and the undercarriage frame (Fig. 70).
Jack the planetary mount back just enough so
the track adjustment bolts can be removed. Af-
ter the bolts have been removed, release the jack
and remove it from the undercarriage.
3. On the inside of the undercarriage there is a
steel tab (B) welded to the sliding planetary
mount. This tab will allow the planetary mount
to be jacked forward. (Fig. 71)
