4.0 TRACK SYSTEM INSTALLATION

4.1 Handling of the Track System

The track systems can be handled by fork lifts lifting the machine from the base or by hoists 

using textile bands.

WARNING

Danger of crushing. Use suitable lifting devices (capacity at least 6600 lbs

(3000Kg)), wear safety equipment and observe the safety rules.

WARNING

In case of a fork lift use for handling operations, be careful not to damage 

the rubber track. Metal chains or cables are not recommended.

WARNING

Use a chock between each idler wheel and track to prevent the track 

system from rolling if using a forklift and handling the track system by the 

base.

WARNING

When setting a track system on the ground but off of the machine, place 

track system on a flat surface and place a wheel chock in front of and to 

the rear of the track system to prevent the track system from rolling.

4.2 Tractor Preparation

Each tractor brand/model has small differences that require different adapters to install the CTS. 

Individual installation kits are required. Please contact your Camso Dealer to ensure you have 

the proper installation kit.

In order to make the installation easier, some shields may have to be removed. In the case these 

or other components interfere with the tracks, the Customer must refer to the tractor

Manufacturer for permission to remove or replace them.

WARNING

Installation of the rubber track system to the axle adapter must engage fully 

on the flange plane. Any interference with the flange with the un-machined 

central area of the final drive shaft must be removed. 

Should the center pilot diameter of the adapter or spacer be not correct or 

for any other installation problem, contact your Dealer or the Manufacturer.

4.3 Track System Installation onto the Machine

Installation instructions specific to the machine are included in the installation kit. If these 

instructions are missing, please contact your Camso Dealer or go to Camso.co for a copy of the 

proper installation instructions.

After installation of tracks onto machine, drive machine around for 5 minutes or 0.6 miles (1 km)

of travel. Recheck mounting torque of bolts pre-lubricated with oil before installation.

Mounting bolts should be torqued to 370 ft-lbs (500 Nm) for machines using M20 bolts and 500 

ft-lbs (670 Nm) for machines using M22 bolts.
