How do I replace the sprockets on my loader?
Replacing the sprockets on a loader sounds simple—but doing it right means thinking ahead. Many operators overlook small signs of wear until it’s too late. The machine begins to slip, vibrations increase, track tension fails, and downtime becomes costly. Sprockets are not just another part—they’re critical for driving power and track alignment. Replacing them at the right time with the right quality ensures your loader stays efficient and avoids major repairs later.
Start by checking the teeth. If they appear sharp, hooked, or worn down, it’s time for a change. Worn sprockets damage the track chain, cause uneven wear, and lead to misalignment. For fleet operators, one damaged sprocket can slow down a jobsite and increase fuel use. A smooth and reliable track system depends on proper sprocket engagement.
Removing old sprockets requires basic tools but careful handling. First, park the loader on level ground and release the track tension. Unbolt the old sprockets carefully, making sure not to damage the final drive area. Clean the mount area and inspect for any wear or debris. Always align the new sprocket correctly to ensure smooth performance. Once installed, re-tension the track to proper spec and test-run the machine at low speed to check for smooth operation.
