You should be able to take off the old track and put a new one on in less than an hour. You will need certain tools to help you get the job done. Specifically a ratchet, sockets, a pry par, a couple heavy duty pins or pipes, a grease gun, and a friend to help you! First, safely jack up the machine and secure it with proper jack stands. Then you bleed the old grease out of the bleeder valve. You want to relieve the pressure on the idler wheel. Once you have done that and the track is lose, you take the pry bar and work the old rubber track off. You can use the pipes and the machine's power to help you with the process. Once the old track is off, place the new one next to the machine. This is where a friend comes in. Have him or her help you get the track up on the machine, starting with the rear sprocket. You will want to work from the back to the front. You have to get the teeth on the rubber track past the frame. To help you do that, use the pipes and the machine's power again. Once the track is on, you pump it up with grease again. Check your manual on what type of grease gun you can use. A battery operated grease gun will reduce the amount of work the job requires. Clean up the area of grease and then you're done. Ben is joined by Jeff of Bobcat of Buffalo to show you step-by-step how to do the job of installing a track on a compact track loader.
