INSTALLATION
NOTE
Track assembly can be installed from the front of the carrier or from the rear. There is an
advantage to installing it from the rear of the vehicle; when the end of the track assembly gets
to the final drive sprockets, the drive sprockets will help assist in pushing the track toward the
idlerwheelwithsomeguidingbyahelperoverthe road wheels. Moving the vehicle forward
over the track means the helper will have to use more force to move the track, as the idler wheel
will not provide any moving force like the final drive sprockets will.
NOTE
A complete track assembly consists of 63 track shoes on the left side and 64 track shoes on the
right side. A flat, level surface about 50 feet long is needed to assemble track sections.
1.
Position track shoe assemblies (1) in a line in back of the vehicle. Align track guides of track shoe assemblies between
first pair of road wheels.
