TB 9-2350-369-20-1 MODIFICATION PROCEDURES/SEQUENCING (continued) 0002 00 ASSEMBLY - Continued (8) Place alignment track pin tool (12474881) over one pin on the outside track shoe and rest it on the other pin. Tighten both track fixtures evenly to pull the track assembly together until the alignment track pin tool fits over and seats fully on both track shoe’s pins. Install the second alignment track pin tool on the inside track shoe pins. (9) Remove the outside track fixture. Both alignment track pin tools will hold the track together. Leave the other track fixture on the inside of the track shoe. Figure 6. Install T150F Track Assembly on Vehicle WARNING Do not use a crowbar on the track shoe pins to get leverage. Any scratches may cause the pin to break and cause the track assembly to fall off the vehicle while operating. This may kill soldiers and damage equipment. Use crowbar as shown in the following steps to get leverage to install the end connectors. NOTE Place end connector or similar size block on top of the two track shoes being joined. Use the crowbar under the track fixture connected to the inside track shoes end connectors and press down on the block/end connector to get the right angle to install the end connector. (10) Make sure the inside track fixture is tight enough to allow the helper to use the crowbar under it with enough pressure to get the slight degree of angle between the two track shoes to allow installing the outside end connector. Use end connector or block to get the angle needed to install the end connector. Use end connector or block as leverage to get angle needed to install end connector. 0002 00-9
