Join me for a day ! A plant mechanic in the north of the England, servicing and repairing mainly Develon & Mecalac construction equipment on building sites, quarries and forestry. In this episode I’ll be spending a day with a DX160HT-5 change track chains and sprockets doing a 4000hr service and replacing the hydraulic oil !

Bugger that, get MST or Dave Ward to do the undercarriage! Miles cheaper for the customer
Top job Ali, every day is a fun day, just the depth that varies 🙏👍👌
Cheers Ali, I think the Track job probably took too much of your time out the day with swapping all those Track pads out, not a stock job in the field usually but you have to work with what you’ve got. All the best for now.
Sod that Al….
Astrak do new chain with 2nd hand pads….but only good pads tho.
Coz stripping down an old track you need a gas axe…..
Running old pad bolts off is a waste of time..
We just gas off old tracks wind them up and put on pallet for return….all the work and postage is in cost…..
And I'll be honest…..huss huss Beater track gear than omc.
I know others may "we can do it faster" but two of us can do a 225 in about 3-3 1/2 hrs.thats tracks and sprockets.
Steve woods mst or astrak do exchange tracks
With new chains and used pads
No good to you all that impact gun time
Well done top job
Chains and sprockets havent lasted long if its only done 4000hrs
