without removing the skid frame. To do this, remove the
machine screw and lock nut securing the wear strip at
the front of the slide rail; then align the wear strip with
openings (windows) in the track and drive it rearward
off the slide rail. Apply an all-temperature grease to the
new wear strip and slide rail; then align the wear strip

ward onto the slide rail. Secure with the machine screw
and lock nut.

screw and lock nut securing the wear strip to the
