How To Change A Skid Steer Track - Easiest Method

  • Опубліковано 21 лют 2013
  • This video is a clear, step by step guide for how to remove and replace the track on a compact track loader / tracked skid steer.
    Having an additional machine such as a fork lift / skid steer with forks can help to maneuver the 300lbs track on and off the machine, but the job can also be done with some man power.

    Excellent video thanks. One word of significant caution is the complete removal of the grease fitting. Couple turns out is ok. If you take one out on a large steel tracked machine the same way it can eject clean through whatever is in the line of fire. Good habits keep you at the supper table each night.

    Useful, but I’d advise referring to the owners manual. Mine says 1/2” gap. Not 3 fingers.

    • @RENT1
      @RENT1  4 роки тому +6

      Completely agreed - best practice is to always consult the owner's manual when doing work on your equipment. Keith is a pro and has been doing this work for years, so we cut him a break this time ;).

  • @KarasCyborg
    @KarasCyborg 4 роки тому +6

    Nice video, however -- Usually when the track comes off it's on the side of a hill, not on a nice level surface. And you got some attachment on it, not a bucket. Really would like to see field re-mounting a track.

    • @RENT1
      @RENT1  4 роки тому +5

      Great suggestion. We asked our partners at TekamoHD Heavy Equipment Services if they could film a track replacement video while replicating outdoor conditions. It was just published today! Take a look: ua-cam.com/video/jmmAnPF_3SY/v-deo.html
      While still on a level surface (for everyone's safety) Keith goes into more detail about potential problems and hiccups along the process, as well as best practices for cold track installation.

  • @thatrandomguycommenting1261

    One thing you missed is when you check track tension you reverse the machine first to put all slack on the bottom and its different on most machines my gehl is about an inch.

    How do you measure track tension if you don't have massive Dutch mits??

    • @fasfgasdfagadsf
      @fasfgasdfagadsf 4 роки тому +1

      The manual behind the seat will tell you what the measurement is... like bobcat says 1/2 inch off the bottom of the center 2 rollers.
      Caterpillar says 2 inches... but because operators dont check in the field, i make it a tight 2 inches, meaning it is only 2 inches if you push down on it.
      New tracks i take to 1 inch because stretch factor.

    @tjlomin1466 5 років тому

    Is the entire machine off the ground? Or just 1 side

  • @craignhjdkziiakiiiazkkkkqa3866
    @craignhjdkziiakiiiazkkkkqa3866 5 років тому +1

    This does not apply to larger Takeuchi or Gehl machines. Tracks are way to heavy to manage the way shown with the Deere. Also tension is set much tighter on the gehl/Takeuchi. Always refer to your owners manual for proper tensioning or learn an expensive lesson on premature track failure. Great video just be advised if you own a different machine

  • @flatliner2713
    @flatliner2713 6 років тому +1

    Sure it works. Ever had hydraulic failure? It does happen. Hope all insurance is up to date. Just my opinion. Do it like you want. 3 minutes of time isn't worth the risk.

    This is how people get hurt. Do not rely on hydraulics to hold up a machine. Do not insert pry bars into track with when machine is propelling forward.

  • @pags5zonda623
    @pags5zonda623 6 років тому

    The manual for that machine says to measure from the 2nd to the front roller, 1 - 1.5 inches. While the rear roller is on the ground and front roller 1 foot off. You measured with the whole track raised, and from center roller and much more than 1 inch. Please don't post things about that if all you go if is gut feeling.......
