We have a similar unit - Vermeer CTX 100. Great machines. I would check your track tension and learn how to put them on and take them off in tricky situations - you will at some point “loose” one when you don’t expect it!

Good stuff! Even better than your riding videos. More please. Also, as deadstump said, don't use your torque wrench as a breaker bar! Just slip a pipe over your normal socket wrench and use it as a longer lever.

I'm jealous! That equipment is going to make things way easier. [fwiw - Its much safer to connect the positive terminal of a battery first. If you accidentally short your wrench and the positive terminal to the frame with no negative connection to the battery, no big deal. I had a battery explode in my car years ago and the acid bath was no joke.]

Yeah, I should have done what you said. While I was editing the video I kind of realized I fucked up. I've seen people post stuff in r/justrolledintotheshop and on tiktok. It's not somethign I want to experience.
@Tzed2502 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your content!! Safety tip: Don’t ever put a tool on the battery positive with the negative cable connected. If you accidentally let the tool touch the terminal and machine chassis at the same time it will short the battery and create a significant arc flash. Always disconnect the negative first, then connect it last.

Please for the sake of greatness.... Don't use your torque wrench as a breaker bar! Those are precision pieces of kit to torque down bolts to a specific torque. Please get a breaker bar and/or a large socket driver for stuck bolt removal or other heavy use. It would be a shame to break that nice piece of kit.

My track fell off, how do you release tension on these, there is no grease fitting for this model?
@SkillsWithPhil3 ай бұрын
There's a big threaded bolt with a square head on the end. If you are lucky and it is not seized, you'll need a big socket (maybe one inch or 1.5inch I can't remember), a socket extender (maybe 4inch) and breaker bar. I can't remember why, but i had to use the socket extension to get to the bolt head, i think there was some clearance issues. I had to thread the socket extension through a hole or something. But my track bolt was seized so i used a one of those blue propane torches to head up the bolt for like 5-10 minutes to get and had to put and extension on the breaker bar to get the bolt loose. Sounded like i broke something when it finally came loose.
