Good luck with your trackor, you will have fun with it. In sandy conditions, less, good dirt, more. You usually only get about 3000 hours on a set of tracks for common use. If they are sharp, it indicates lots of wear. The rear sprokets should not have knife points at the tips but should be rounded.

If there is wear only on one side, they have not been rotated which would gain more track life. You can take a light and look at the pins and bushings on the upper side of the track. With a loader, it is common to have the front rollers fail first. The older ones with grease use a special slide fitting to grease them, also with a low pressure gun. Use a low pressue gun from JD with 30 wt oil lest you blow a seal. If it is oil, they have two plugs, one fill and one bleed. The tracks may have the newer style rollers and idlers that use 30 wt oil instead of grease. If there has been a lot of slope work or the idlers are not shimmed correctly, one ridge will be thicker than the other. You can also look at the wear on the front idlers. They will give you a slack measured in inches. If they are close to the front, you would be close to being out of adjustment with the adjustor. New traks have about 5 inches not counting the rock guards if installed. As far as the track wear, look at how far forward the front idlers are where they rest on the track rails.

The manual should tell you how to adjuct the idle. I was told that the crawler was in overall good condition however, I don't know a lot about dozers, and I'm curious about how to determine track or undercariage wear/life.Īny info/opinions on track lubrication, the reverser whining, throttle adjustment, einch operaton, or track life, as well as any other general advice would be appreciated. I just recently graduated college and was wanting to do some brush clearing, as well as hauling out the dead and fallen trees out of the woods at my house. And also, the forward/reverse lever had to be in the forward position to make the winch operate? does the winch lever put the pto in gear? I guess I'll check all this. From what I've read on here, I guess the 350 B's don't have a pto lever? It would make sense because I can't find one.

It also idles at about 1400 rpm, and i would like to solw that down. It also might just slightly turn to the right a little quicker/easier than to the left - but it's very minor if it's not just my imagination. The reverser works fine, and the crawler moves fine in reverse, it's just that it whines. The only thing of major concern is that it whines a decent amount in reverse. I'm guessing that the injector pump has been replaced since it is a different shade/more faded shade of yellow than the rest of the engine. Other than the winch, eeryhing seems to work okay. I pulled the plug on the idler and could see grease on the back of it, so I'm guessing they may be okay. According to the manual, the tracks are only supposed to be greased every 500 hours, so I don't know whether I should or not. I've adjusted the tracks to an inch of slack, changed engine oil, checked all the fluids, grased the loader - but not the tracks. I recently bought this 350 B loader, as well as a reprint operators manual for the older 350.
