Installing The Rubber Tracks; Checking Sprocket Wear - Timberwolf TW 280TVGTR BROYEUR Mode D'emploi

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLING THE RUBBER TRACKS

1 Check that the grease contained in the hydraulic cylinder
has been removed.
2 Mesh the track links in the sprocket and place the other
end of the track on the track-stretching wheel.
3 Rotate the driving gear in reverse and pull the track soles
inside the frame.
4 Position the track using a steel tube and turn the driving
gear again.
5 Make sure track links mesh correctly in the sprocket and
in the track stretching wheel.
6 Adjust track tension (see track loosening procedures on
page 23).
7 Set the tracked undercarriage on the ground.

CHECKING SPROCKET WEAR

Measuring wear on sprocket and driving gear teeth is one of
the most difficult measurements to be done. You must always
consider the point where wear is greatest.
There should always be enough tooth left on the sprocket to
engage fully with the rubber track. When the sprocket
meshing distance is reduced significantly the sprocket should
be changed.
