NOTES: These torque settings are a guide only. Some older machines may have a lower torque setting, please refer to your machine manual or contact us to confirm.

Torque Settings for Track Bolts Method A - Conventional Method by Final Torque Setting


Install the new track chain according with safety precautions and procedures explained in your machine producer Operation and Maintenance Manual and/or Service and Repair Manual.

Failure to follow these recommendations and instructions could result in damages to your machine and track chain components

IMPORTANT NOTES n Thoroughly remove all protective coating from the master links n Remove all grease or foreign matter from the bolt holes n Remove all paint from mating surfaces of the links and shoes n Ensure bolts are clean and apply anti-seize compound to the threads

Engage pin side links (A) and bushing side links (B) and check holes alignment. Screw in the four bolts (C) without fitting the shoes (the bolts must go easily in by hand). Do not force the track bolts into misaligned holes; damage to bolt and link threads will occur.

Remove the four bolts (C).

Position shoe (D) on the master link by aligning the bolt holes, then screw up all four bolts (C) fully by hand. Check that the split master link mating faces remains precisely aligned.

Use a suitable torque wrench (E) to tighten the four bolts (C). Tighten the bolts in order 1 to 4 as shown.

After installation, check the master shoe bolts (C) tightening torque after the first 100 machine working hours and again after 500 working hours.

Lack of undercarriage management can account for more than half of a machine’s maintenance costs. That’s why we offer a comprehensive program to measure and monitor your undercarriage system.

The ITM Track Advice Measurement System uses the most advanced diagnostic equipment available, like the Ultrasonic Wear Indicator and mobile App.

Active wear monitoring,reduced running costs WE CAN MONITOR YOUR UNDERCARRIAGE WEAR PERFORMANCE TO HELP PLAN FOR UPCOMING REPLACEMENTS AND PREVENT UNEXPECTED BREAKDOWNS

With this technology, we can accurately monitor your undercarriage wear rates and remaining service life so you can plan maintenance, and schedule downtime easily.

The wear analysis can be completed on site, providing real-time data that will help you make informed decisions.

Choosing heavy duty, greased filled and poly sealed excavator chains will;

n Increase external bush wear up to 20%

n Reduce internal bush wear up to 25% compared to dry chains

n Reduce undercarriage noise for operator comfort

Choosing the narrowest shoe possible, with good flotation will;

n Minimise internal wear on pins and bushes

n Reduce shoe wear and prevent bending or cracking

n Reduce stress and wear on the entire undercarriage system

MINIMISE REVERSING Excavator and Dozer chains are designed to operate with less wear when traveling forwards. Excessive reverse travel can cause faster undercarriage wear. The extra power required when reversing will also increase fuel consumption.

Correct care and maintenance will also increase service life;

n Ensure the correct track adjustment is maintained – Check this regularly after installing a new set

n Measuring and monitoring of wear areas to determine any wear issues- especially in abrasive and high impact conditions

n Keep the undercarriage components as clean as possible at all times. If you allow the tracks to pack or build up with dirt, mud, dust and other ground products it will lead to increased wear rates, perceived lower power and increased fuel usage

KNOW YOUR WORKING CONDITIONS Look at the conditions where your equipment is operating; this can be a major contributor to wear. High impact, abrasive or sandy materials on a wet site, will contribute to faster undercarriage wear.

T R A C K T I P S

ALWAYS DIG OVER YOUR IDLERS It’s important to note for excavator operation that digging over your sprockets will increase bush wear and possibly cause pin and bush cracking. Always dig over your idlers as the weight is on the chain links and not directly on the pins and bushes.
