How to Repair A Cracked Weld: Fixing a Track Carrier Hydraulic Tank

In this hydraulic tank repair video, Brandon fixes a cracked weld that was letting water in the tank and causing contaminated hydraulic fuel. If the crack isn’t fixed soon, the Morooka track carrier will become inoperable!
Keeping your heavy equipment in top operating condition is one of the best ways to minimize downtime and maximize profits on any jobsite. Before releasing a new piece of equipment to our fleet for rent or purchase, #TeamNT follows a 19-Point Inspection to be sure each unit is ready to roll at peak performance.
In this video, Brandon walks us through his process for machine repair diagnostics and step-by-step weld repair when a Morooka MST 3000 track carrier is brought into our shop for a crack repair on its hydraulic tank. As Brandon lays the root weld and cover passes, he’ll share some tips and tricks for welding using MIG weld application.
