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 looking through the track window to

make sure the rails are evenly spaced on each side. If the track runs

to the left, loosen the left locknut and tighten the left adjusting bolt.

If the track runs to the right, loosen the right locknut and tighten the

right adjusting bolt.

4. After adjustments are complete, tighten locknuts and torque idler

shaft bolts to 35 ft. lbs. (47.5 Nm).

5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to verify proper alignment.
