12. Once the drive table is in place under the track,
remove the pivot bolt and push the drive table
back to its operating position using a port-a-power.
You may have to reposition the port-a-power sev-
eral times to accomplish this. (fig. 11-18)
13. Now that the drive table is in its operating position,
install the rear drive table alignment bolts and the
front mounting bolts to secure the drive table in
place. Do not tighten the front mounting bolts com-
pletely to allow for the track adjustment procedure.
14. At this point you are ready to reinstall the turn-
buckle. Do this by aligning the turnbuckle mount-
ing sleeves with the brackets in the undercarriage
and installing the mounting pins and retaining
clips. (fig. 11-19)
If the other track needs to be installed, repeat this
process on that side of the machine. Once both tracks
are installed and ready for tension adjustment, perform
the track tension adjustment procedure on page 11-4.
(See note in the track tension adjustment procedure
for the quickest tensioning method while installing the
tracks.)

Engine Oil and Filter
Regular oil changes are necessary to maintain a
strong running engine.Terex recommends a normal oil
change interval of 250 hours or every six months. This
recommendation has been made to help en-sure prop-
er lubrication during operation and to pro-long engine
life under typical operating conditions.
To change the oil and filter:
1. Start and run the engine for a few minutes to warm
the oil. Then turn the engine off and remove key
before proceeding.
2. Place a suitable container under the engine oil
drain plug to catch the used oil as it drains.
3. Remove the four fasteners from the belly pan
beneath the engine, then lower it to access the
drain plug. (fig. 11-20)
4. Remove the drain plug from the oil pan and allow
the used oil to drain completely from the engine.
Make sure to use the correct size combina-
tion/socket wrench to keep the drain plug in
reusable condition. (fig. 11-21)
5. Remove the engine oil filter by hand or with strap if
necessary. (fig. 11-22)
