7. Adjust the correct track tension if the play between the track roller and

the track is not 20 – 25 mm (0.8 – 1 in).

Correcting track tension

DANGER

Projectile hazard! High grease pressure in the hydraulic
cylinder.

Causes severe injury or death!

►

Open the lubricating valve only very carefully and do not
unscrew it more than a revolution.

►

Keep your face away from the lubricating valve connection.

►

Contact a Wacker Neuson service center if this does not
reduce track tension.

►

Release grease only as described below. (Observe the safety
instructions!)

Notice

Excessive tension of the tracks causes severe damage to the
hydraulic cylinder and the track.

►

Tighten the tracks only up to the mandatory measuring
distance.

Fig. 270: Measuring distance

20 – 25 mm
(0.78 – 0.98 in)
