How to Fix the Tracks on a Mini Excavator

I think you need to show the guy hooking the chain a video on how to hook a chain, took longer to do that then put the track back on

Okay I'll try to get that next time

a 5 min job made to look hard guys ..never chain a track use your own boom and bucket to push the track on ..

Thank god for ingenious mexiCANS

Look at how much slack you have in that track at the end of the video when you're greasing it up compared to when you're pulling on that thing with the boom. Just lift all of the slack with a spud bar and two people could have pulled that track back on before your boy even got the chain hooked up. 

that is NOT how to put a track back on,unless you want to damage your track,if that was my crew ,id have been chewin assss for doing it like that. are these guys in US?if so.are they legal?

fail

This video should be how not to do it

If you let the machine down closer to the ground you would have more slack up front instead of hanging down. Looks like a bunch of greenhorns.

if you need a chain to put a track back on a mini you are an idiot, if they lowered the machine to take the tension off the track would have been back on itself

Having done this hundreds of times, I can do it much faster.  Turn the house sideways and lift the track.  After releasing the grease valve place a crowbar in the links of the track, and slowly rotate the track so that the crowbar passes over the idler, this will expel the grease.  Next place the crowbar in the links of the track, and slowly rotate the track while prying the track back into position.  When the track is back on the idler, close the grease valve, and re-fill the grease cylinder.

Do it myself all the time much faster and easier

Not the way to do this lol

LOL what a comedy show, that is the worst track install i have seen.

"fixing" so just putting back on.
