How to Remove and Reinstall the Rubber Track on a Track System

If you’ve been riding on a Camso track system for a while, then you already know how durable the rubber tracks are. But every once in a while, a track needs replacing. Knowing how to do this yourself can be very handy.

If you’re a DIY-er, all you need is a few tools and our In the Shop video: How to Remove and Reinstall the Rubber Track on a Track System. It shows you how to inspect, remove, and reinstall the rubber tracks on Camso track systems. It also shows how to verify and properly adjust the track tension to minimize the risk of premature wear, derailing, and drive ratcheting.

 

Maintenance steps covered in the video

The video starts with something we should all be doing on a regular basis: visually inspecting your track system. Specifically, what signs of wear, damage, etc. to look for in your rubber tracks.
