Maintenance Tips

Track links should be inspected regularly as they have only one wearing surface that makes contact with track rollers, front idlers, and track idlers. Visible wear on the outside of bushings and track stretch can indicate the need for replacement. Measure the pitch length of the track and compare it to new standards to check for wear. Regularly evaluate both sprocket and track chain wear to avoid misalignment and reduce excessive wear on sprocket teeth.

When installing new or rebuilt track chains, it is advisable to also update sprockets. Removing a link from a stretched track to fit adjustments should be avoided, as it may lead to misalignment and increased sprocket wear.
