Page 23: Setting And Aligning The Track
SETTING AND ALIGNING THE TRACK The most critical part of the bore is the setting of the machine track on line and grade. If the alignment is not right when you start, it is not likely to improve. CAUTION! EQUIPMENT HAZARD! You must hold the track down! Allowing the track to lift will cause damage to the cylinders, pinion gears and other driveline components! CAUTION! EQUIPMENT HAZARD! Always set single track sections. - Page 24 TRACK ASSEMBLY The use of this machine requires a concrete pad to be poured. Make sure to add hold down provisions to the middle, and both ends of the track. Failure to do so will result in damage to the ends of the track, cylinders, pinion gears and other driveline components! To install the extension tracks, follow the steps below.
- Page 25 Rack Gear Assembly Place the master rack gear on top of the master track and back against the stops. EXTENTION SECTIONS HOLD DOWN BARREL BOLTS LINE UP HARDWARE MASTER RACK GEAR STOPS Place extension sections down the length of the track assembly, up against each other. Place the lineup gear against the inside seam.

Page 26: Machine Assembly
MACHINE ASSEMBLY DANGER! Always use correct lifting devices and NEVER hoist or transfer loads over personnel! Attach the spreader chains to the lifting eyes on the base push unit making sure that the two longer chains are attached to the push bar end of the machine. Be sure that the 4-hook roller assemblies are pinned in the upright position and that the push bar dogs are retracted into the push bar and pinned into place. - Page 27 DANGER! Stay clear of shear and pinch points while guiding the power package during assembly. Once the sub frame is seated, disconnect the chains from the lifting eye and remove the spreader bar from the bore pit. Connect the hydraulic quick disconnects and dog LED electrical cord at the rear of the machine and on the power pack.
- Page 28 Unpin and latch the 4-hook rollers into the down and locked position and secure with hitch pin. The lower pins are also used to hold the friction break in place. Make sure the pins are in place correctly. Latch and tighten all four corner swivel hold-down bolts. Bolt in the header wall cover.
