Change track piston on 175C

[loic66]

Hello,

I bought an old 175C but when we tried to adjust the track tension by putting lubrificant, the track get adjusted but after moving the loader, all the grease went away through the back of the piston.

I also bought the operator's manual but it is not stated how to remove the piston and change the seal.

Do we have to remove the whole track and the wheel or is there a better way and quicker way to do this.?

What is the average time to complete the operation ?

People seem to know only caterpillar around here ....

Thanks in advance for your help,

Loïc
