Hello folks, I'm wondering how track chains are hopped one tooth on a non hunting tooth setup. Can track be loosened for this, or is it split the track?

Hi, Jimmy977.
You could try loosening the track, put a round bar close to the bush size in the next tooth to engage the sprocket and back up slowly, preferably with somebody watching. That's how we get elevator chains back in sync on elevating scrapers.

Just my 0.02

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
