Hej Rune

This is a common problem with Hymacs

You will need to release the grease from the track adjuster first, then you should be able to push back the idler (front) using the bucket and a block of wood to be able to give you plenty of slack to get the track back on

This will be hard work but you can use the machine and some chains to help you.

I hope this helps and good luck

Hi again .
Back in business.
After releasing the grease pressure I took a chain from the bucket to the track and pulled and guided with the dipper, at the same time I released the brake and drove the track carefully backwards until the drive sprocket entered the trackchain.
Do you know a method of making a turn to aviod this from happen again?
Thank´s again Rune

use the bucket to do your turns, that helps me alot to not"walk of the band"
