5.19.3 Adjusting Track Tension
WARNING
THE TRACK SHOULD NOT REMAIN TIGHT AFTER LOOSENING
THE GREASE NIPPLE, OR REMAIN LOOSE AFTER GREASE HAS
BEEN INJECTED. IF THIS OCCURS DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
REMOVE THE TRACKS OR DISASSEMBLE THE ADJUSTER UNIT
UNTIL THE PRESSURE HAS BEEN SAFELY DISSIPATED.
WARNING
THE TRACK TENSIONER CONTAINS PRESSURISED GREASE.
UNDO THE GREASE NIPPLE BY THE MINIMUM NECESSARY TO
SLOWLY RELEASE GREASE. NEVER MORE THAN 5 TURNS.
ANY MORE THAN THIS COULD CAUSE HIGH PRESSURE
GREASE TO BE EXPELLED, OR THE GREASE NIPPLE TO BE
EJECTED, CAUSING INJURY TO THE OPERATOR.
Track tension is maintained by grease in the adjuster unit. Adding grease will increase track
tension. Removing grease will decrease track tension.
1. Remove any gravel or mud which may be jammed between the sprocket and the
track link before attempting to adjust the track tension.
2. Remove the cover plate from the side
frame to access the adjustment unit
grease nipple (see Figure 38).
3. To reduce the track tension, slowly turn
the grease nipple counter- clockwise.
Grease should begin to be expelled after
approximately two turns.
4. If grease does not start to drain out, slowly
rotate the track forward and back to free
the adjuster mechanism.
5. Grease may then be expelled at high
pressure as the track tension is relieved.

6. When the correct track tension has been achieved, turn the grease nipple clockwise
to tighten.
7. If the track tension needs to be increased, connect a grease gun to the grease nipple
and slowly add grease until the correct tension is achieved.
8. On completion of the operation, clean all traces of grease from the grease nipple and
refit the cover plate.
