GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The track assembly is composed of the following major components:
1. Track
2. Front Idler Roller
3. Upper Roller
4. Lower Roller
5. Track Spring and Track Adjustment Cylinder
TRACK TENSION
WARNING!
Safely measuring track tension requires two people. One person must be in the operator's seat,
running the controls to keep one side frame in the air, while the other person makes dimensional
checks. Take all necessary precautions to make sure the machine won’t move or shift position
during service. Warm up the engine to prevent stalls, travel the excavator to an area that
provides level, uniform ground support and/or use support blocks when necessary.
The track adjusting mechanism is under very high pressure. NEVER release pressure too
suddenly. The grease cylinder valve should never be backed off more than 1 complete turn from
the fully snugged down position. Bleed off pressure slowly and keep your body away from the
valve at all times.
Track shoe link pins and bushings wear with normal usage, reducing track tension. Periodic adjustment is
necessary to compensate for wear and it may also be required by working conditions.
1. Track tension is checked by jacking up one
side of the excavator. See Figure 1. Place
blocking under frame while taking
measurement.

WARNING!
The track adjusting mechanism is under very high pressure. NEVER release pressure too
suddenly. The grease cylinder valve should never be backed off more than 1 complete turn
from the fully snugged down position. Bleed off pressure slowly and keep your body away
from the valve at all times.
CAUTION!
Refer to the "Welding Precautions and Guidelines" information in "General Maintenance
Procedures" section for general recommendations and specific safety precautions, before
starting any lower travel frame component rebuilding procedure.
The tables that follow provide factory-specified dimensional limits (as-new condition, recommended
service and replacement limit) for lower travel frame components.
Recommended maintenance to renew most listed components requires welding on additional material and
grinding off excess. Some components must be replaced before the service limit is exceeded. No
maintenance or renewal is possible.
Compare the values in the tables with dimensions and profiles shown in the adjacent figures.

TRACK REMOVAL
1. Position machine on a smooth level
surface with adequate room for forward
and reverse travel.
2. Relieve track tension. Refer to "Track
Tension" in this section for procedure.
3. Move machine until master link (1) is
positioned at approximately 10 o’clock
from top position on travel reduction
gearbox.
4. Remove four nuts and bolts (2) holding
shoe to link. Remove enough shoes to Figure 14
make access to lock pin easier.
NOTE: Support track shoes with
blocking so that when master
pin (4) is removed tack will not
fall.
5. Straighten lock pin (3) and remove it from
master pin (4). Discard lock pin.
6. Remove master pin from master links.
7. Move unit forward until entire track is laying
on ground.
NOTE: Do not drive unit off track.

8. Rotate upper structure to 90˚ from track.
Use bucket and boom to raise track frame
off track.
9. Position blocking under frame.

TRACK INSTALLATION
1. Lay rebuilt or new track into position under
track frame. End of track should be
positioned under front idler roller.
2. With upper structure at 90˚ to track frame.
Use bucket and boom to raise track frame
off blocking.
3. With blocking removed, lower track frame
onto track. Make sure all rollers are
properly positioned on track.

4. Move unit backwards while feeding track
up over front idler roller. Continue to pull
track back until it engages drive sprocket.
5. Align master links and install master pin.
6. Insert new lock pin in master pin. Bend
end of pin over so it is pointing in opposite
direction of other end as shown.
7. Apply track tension. Refer to "Track
Tension" in this section for procedure.

LOWER ROLLER
Heat treatment of the lower rollers provides improved wear resistance and hardness. High quality bushings
and seals will ensure long service life if lubricant is replaced at recommended intervals.
