Check and Adjust the Track Tension
1. If the track tension is noticeably loose, operate the
machine with the engine at idle speed.
2. Travel forward about 13 ft. (4m) on a flat, level, and
stable surface and stop the machine.
3. Shut down the machine.
4. Prepare the machine for checks and inspections. See
“Maintenance Safety” on page 2-8.
5. Turn the battery disconnect switch to OFF. See “Battery Disconnect Switch” on page 3-15.
6. Place a straightedge (1) on the track above the carrier roller (2).
7. Measure the track sag value (3), the distance between straightedge and the track, using a ruler.
NOTE:
The acceptable track sag range is 0.4 in.–1.2 in. (10 mm–30 mm).
8. If the track sag is outside the acceptable range, increase or decrease the track tension as needed.
