Title: 1948 ag6h track
Post by: ikasischke on July 02, 2015, 01:45:38 AM
Hello hubby was running machine when he heard something break. Keyway on left side track broke as it is freespinning.  That is an easy fix as he has fixed it on the other side.

Problem is he cannot release tension on the track to take it off all of a sudden. Ideas?

To double check on left hand side track do you go up to loosen track or down. Just want to make sure we are going the right way.

If that is correct any idea why track will not loosen? Something else broke?

Help please!!!

Pulling up on the wrench would loosen the nut, which should loosen the track. Nothing should keep the track from backing off unless the shaft is seized.

Thanks Bob. He tried loosening the nut and it is tight as can be. What shaft are you referring to?  He thought the spring might have broke.

The shaft that the spring is hooked to. it goes thru the housing on the end of the track frame by the front idler.
