Traction Kubota track adjuster acess

[ozfossil]

Hi All,

I own an old 3 ton Kubota excavator which has a leaking track adjuster - from reading as many related posts on this site as I could, I gather I will need to remove the adjuster and repair leaking seals etc. On looking at the operators manuals and everything I can see on the net, I am mystified how I would get to it. Any one have any experience or knowledge on where to start? My model is a K030 (very similar to the KX91-2).

At the moment I am thinking that the track has to come off, then the idler wheel removed and then perhaps the Adjuster might be able to be pulled out (ort not!). I am hoping though that a few bolts would remove the side cover and I would get to it much easier. Looking at that seems to be attached to the side cover - this is not looking likely.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts

Cheers

Oops that last sentence should read "Looking at What seems to be attached to the side cover-......"

I could not see any way of editing my post - if there is a way to that I would appreciate knowing for next time?

Cheers
