Track Alignment
A periodic check should be made to see that the track is centered and
running evenly on the slide rails. Misalignment will cause excessive
wear to the track and slide rail.
WARNING
When performing the following checks and adjustments, stay
clear of all moving parts to avoid serious personal injury.
Before checking track tension, make sure the track contains no
objects that could be thrown out while the track is rotating. Keep
clear of track. This includes but is not limited to hands, tools, feet
and clothing. Make sure no one is standing close to the machine
while the track is rotating.
1. Safely support the rear of the machine
with the t rack off the ground using a
jackstand.
2. Start the engine and apply a small
amount of throttle until the track
turns slowly at least five complete
revolutions. Stop the engine.
3. Inspect track alignment by looking
through the track windows to make
sure the rails (A) are evenly spaced
on each side. If the track runs to the
left, loosen the left idler wheel
mounting bolt and tighten the left
track adjusting bolt. If the track runs
to the right, loosen the right idler
wheel mounting bolt and tighten the
right track adjusting bolt.
4. After adjustments are complete, be
sure to tighten locknuts and idler
shaft bolts. Torque to 35-40 ft. lbs.
