My brand new Chinese digger with 3 hours on in did this yesterday. I had to jack it up and drag it out of my next door neighbor' s driveway we're digging out for a new cement slab. I have it adjusted all the way loose AND IT'S STILL TOO FREAKING TIGHT. IT'S SITTING AT THE CURB IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE . Im already set to torch it
One side of mine the tension nut inside is seized. Not a lot of room to play with. Sometimes I take the back big gear off and then shove everything into place. I find the main issue why these tracks pop off is cause when you want to turn left you need to push the left back and the right side forward. Can't just have one side moving.
there a fucking nightmare. but after a dozen time ya get used too them ya get around 250hrs hard work out of the tracks on these diggers before there stretched and fucked
Great idea, thanks!
Yes, it worked!
Wow ore woe

Don’t give up! Use the force, Luke!

You are right, learning how to turn, especially on incline helps
I should add antiseize on those nuts…
I just pulled mine off for the first time, manoeuvring out of a tight spot, one track at a time, lesson learned, dig up the ground v slipping a track.

I’ll try to get most out of them and I’ll try to be carefull when not on even ground, hopefully this does not happen too often!
The next time, just dig a hole next to the big rock and roll it in.
Yes, that would work!
