- This machine has about 250 hours on it since new and it is definitely overdue for a tension on the tracks. They were very loose I wanted to get on this maintenance before loosing a track and causing a big headache.

Cool! I had no idea that's how it's done! Definitely a good idea to make sure there is no slop!
There's nothing worse than having your track fall off!
@@ThriftyGarage especially on a bobcat, the drive sprocket cant be taken apart to slide the tracks back in
I bought a worx coordless pressure washer, dual battery to clean areas I need to get into. I like the Milwaukee Corrdless Grease gun with the LockAndLube fitting on the end. My 2014 T650 has the roller suspension and the grease release and zerk panel is right there under the sprocket roller where all the mud cakes up, so it's a bit of doing to get it cleaned off. I like those Gojo hand towel packets for keeping hands clean from the grease that gets everywhere.
Wow! Lots of helpful tips! I’ve been wanting a cordless grease gun.
Thanks for the video bro a rrealy helps me
Good to hear!
Approx how many pumps of grease did you use?
Do you have to loosen up the zurk too?
Only if you want to release the pressure on the track. Main reason being if you were to install new tracks. The zerk has a one way valve only allowing grease to go inside and fill the cylinder pushing on the front idler.
That’s not loose 7/8 on the bounce I just got mine back
How do you retract it to fit it in ?
When we change tracks usually we will use our Bobcat E35 to push on the front roller to retract it (after loosening the grease bolt). But you can also use a pry tool such as a 6' bar.
Definitely not a mechanic. lol.
Yea, just a lowly CZcamsr that sits behind a desk editing videos. No dirty hands here. ✋ 🤚
@@ThriftyGarage lol. The crescent wrench told off on you!
I knew that Crescent wasn’t able to keep a secret.
Lmao
@@brianwilliams2087 lol, I run one of the service trucks for a private shop working on every aspect of construction equipment, any year make and model. My drawer full of various shapes, lengths, thickness and scale of adjustable wrenches, are one of my most used tools 🤣..
