Love watching mini ex’s getting fixed

[@getadigger]

Only problem with the minis is getting to nuts n bolts sometimes lol

[@getadigger]

Thanks Lex, I try to keep it clean.. saves wear and tear. It always seems to back off a bit, suspect it was a dodgy roller that I've since replaced. No problem since.

Nice video
Very clean under all those panels really.
So did the track stay tight?

I noticed a ram spanning from track to track, is that to widen or narrow the track width?

[@getadigger]

Yes generally smaller minis will have the option to expand or retract track width

[@Kaegis]

@@getadigger That makes sense now with all the little upgrades they're coming out with. I have an older Kobelco SK75UR, 7.5T. Has a blade etc but no track width ram.

How do you lubricate the idler sprocket bearing?

[@getadigger]

You don't.. Designed to be a replaceable part every 2 to 3000 hrs

[@Kaegis]

@@getadigger Is it lubricated integrally by the grease from the tensioner?
