MAINTENANCE

The track links have only one wearing surface which contacts the track rollers, front idler and track idlers. However, it usually becomes necessary to replace pins and bushings before the links wear out, and it is a matter of judgement then whether the links are good enough to justify a new set of pins and bushings. Only the wear on the outside of the bushings is visible. Wear on the pins and interior of the bushings is indicated by track stretch (forward adjustment of the front idler). The amount of wear can be determined by measuring the pitch length of the track (distance between centers of pins) under tension and comparing it with new and maximum allowable pitch lengths listed in SECTION 14. Sprocket wear must also be considered in conjunction with track chain wear.

Wear of the sprocket teeth decreases the pitch length of the sprocket, while wear of pins and bushings increases the pitch length of the track. The results are that the pitch lengths of the sprocket and track becomes more and more out of phase, and the bushings ride higher on the sprocket teeth. Combined wear of sprocket and track should never be allowed to reach this point.

Whenever new or rebuilt track chains are installed, the sprocket should also be replaced or interchanged to present the better side of teeth to the bushings. Never remove one link to bring a stretched track to within the range of proper track adjustment. A track that is worn badly enough to take up the length of one link, will be so far out of pitch that the increased wear on the sprocket will far more than offset the saving obtained by the removal of one link in the track chain.
