6. Move the track assembly forward or backward until the separation in the track assembly is below a horizontal line through the center of the sprocket.

7. Apply 5P-0960 Molybdenum Grease on two track bushings (2). Install the bushings in the track links, as shown. The grease will hold the bushings in place.

8. Install Tool (D) under the rear of the track assembly, as shown. Move the track assembly backward until the separation in the track assembly closes and the pin bores in both ends of the track assembly are in alignment with each other. The machine might need to be moved back and forth in order to align the pin bores.

9. Apply 5P-0960 Molybdenum Grease in the master pin bores in the track assembly and on the master pin. Install the master pin with a hammer. Install the cotter pin in the master pin. Remove Tool (D) from the rear of the track assembly.
