If one or more core bars are broken, the track must be
replaced. If the core bars break on the wings, the track can
still be used but note that eventually long term damage will
occur.
Core Bars - Fast Abrasion
Cause:
1 The sprocket is not correct for the track.
2 The teeth of the sprocket are worn (hook shaped).
3 Operating environment is extremely abrasive
Prevention:
1 Make sure that the sprocket is genuine JCB, ensure
sprocket is in good condition.
2 Replace sprocket. When new tracks are fitted, the
sprockets should always be checked (and renewed if
necessary).
3 Clean the tracks with fresh water.

Additional Notes:
When the core bars are worn out, the track must be
replaced. The track does not have to be replaced if the
core bar abrasion is below approximately 20%.
