Komatsu D21P Tracks too tight

Ecostruction ยท 2013-09-13 07:44

Just picked up a D21P this week. Tracks are way too tight. Can't even get them to flex with anything on them. I don't have manuals yet. Anyone got a clue, with perhaps a picture of which screw releases the pressure? I have the large cover off over the spring. Pretty gunked up and not sure how to release pressure. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Eco

    Loosen the grease valve at the back of the cylinder where the zerk fitting is mounted.. It's a 27mm fitting...it doesn't need to be backed off very much though and you should see grease coming out...hope this helps..
