Yanmar B3

[tarquin2]

Hi, not sure if im posting in the right forum or not, so apologies if im not.
I have a Yanmar B3 360 excavator, which i have used for the last couple of years with no problem. Until yesterday when the track split into one long piece of rubber, I am in the process of orderring a new one, but my big question is - where are the track adjusters? I have been looking for a big nut on a threade bar like i had on another machine but cannot find it. Would it be through the grease nipple?

Yes, it is a grease nipple in the track frame. You will likely have to unscrew the nipple / adjuster fitting and expel some of the grease to get the new track fitted. Just push inward on the idler after unscrewing the grease valve.
Hope this helps,
