BREAK/JOIN T150 TRACK — Continued

WARNING

Do not use the crowbar on the track shoe pins to get leverage. Any scratches may cause the

pin to break and cause the track assembly to fall off the vehicle while operating. This may

kill soldiers and damage equipment. Use the crowbar as shown in Steps 2 - 5 to get leverage

to install end connectors.

NOTE

Place end connector or similar size block on top of the two track shoes being joined. Use the

crowbar under the track fixture connected to the inside track shoes end connectors and press

down on the block to get the right angle to install the end connector.

5.

Make sure the inside track fixture is tight enough to allow the helper to use the crowbar under it with enough pressure to

get a slight degree of angle between the two shoes to allow installing the outside end connector.

6.

Install the end connector on the outside track shoe pins. Get the angle needed to allow the end connector to fit on the

track shoe pins. Tap on the end connector close to the alignment tool. Remove the track alignment tool. Tap the end

connector fully onto track shoe pins. Make sure it touches both track shoe bodies.
