INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT OF TRACK SHOE TENSION
1. Travel the machine forward by the length of track on ground, keeping the engine at low idling, and stop the machine slowly.
2. Place straight bar [1] on the track shoe between the idler and the 1st carrier roller.
L beam is recommended for bar [1], because of its deflection-free nature.
3. Measure max. clearance a between bar [1] and the track shoe.
Max. standard clearance a: 10 30 mm Adjustment
If the track shoe tension is not proper, adjust it in the following manner.
1. When the tension is too strong Discharge grease by loosening valve (1).
Do not loosen valve (1) by more than one turn, because grease will spurt out due to its internal high pressure.
2. When the tension is too weak
Add grease through valve (1).
If the normal track shoe tension is not restored even after greasing, move the machine slowly back and forth.
