TRACK ADJUSTMENT
The track system on the Walk-Behind
does not use any chains; however, it is
important to keep the track system
tensioned properly.
Tracks should be tensioned so that a
180lb person standing on one foot in the
center of the track makes the track bend
down approximately 1”.
Track tension is adjusted through use
of the track tensioner, shown in Figure
30. Simply loosen the four bolts securing
the front axle to the frame, and use a
wrench to tighten the tensioning nut until
desired track tension is achieved. Be
sure to re-tighten the four axle bolts once
finished to secure the front axle once
again.

Note that as the track wears it will
periodically
need
re-tightening
to
maintain the correct tension. It is
recommended that you check track
tension at 3 hours, 10 hours and weekly
thereafter.
PERIODIC GREASING DETAILS
Greasing is an important factor in extending the service life of many items on your Walk-
Behind including cylinders and pivot pins.
All serviceable grease points may be greased with a general purpose or bearing grease.
The points on the Walk-Behind which can be greased are shown in the figures below. It
is recommended that greasing be performed on a weekly basis.
