), a task for which a Dumpster isn't really suited.It didn't help that the tracks were quite stretched/slack already beforehand as nobody at the organisation for which he works and I volunteer at seem to bother to carry out any checks, greasing etc
Fortunately the track came off on a tarmacadam surface rather than on soil so when Speedy Hire's mechanic/fitter came out he very quickly jacked up the Dumpster using a trolley jack and inserting axle stands at the front and rear to give him enough room to get the track back on which I helped him with. Being a kindly soul I recalled some of tctractors battles so I cleared away all the muck and pieces thorny bush littered around to make the mechanic/fitters life slightly easier
He adjusted the Idler (?) at the front and I think pushed the track over by hand and then got me to operate the control lever for that particular track as he pushed the track on with a long iron bar first by running it forwards then backwards until the whole track was on, after which he pumped some grease in to the track frame and proceed to drive the Dumpster about before leaving.
