Hi Switched the arrow of the first four tires to point backwards. The machine now moves but slow in the water. One thing I noticed is that it tends to pull hard to the left. When you hold the...
Oops, yes the rawhides are 22 inch. Will try reversing the v. Thanks very much.
Thanks guys The tires I currently have mounted are Carlisle Power Trac II 21X11:00X8 NHS The point of the "V" on the actual tread of the tire is pointing ahead. I have tubes inside the tire. ...
Hi Mike I have 21X11X8 in tires mounted with the arrow point facing forward. The only other tires that came with the used machine are 22X11X8 (no rims).
Today I got up the nerve to cross into my creek with my Max II. I have the smaller tires on the machine. Got into the creek ok, was pleased how it moves through shallow water while moving over...
Got the wrench out after watching the video and getting encouragement from this great team. Followed the instructions and was absolutely amazed how little I had to turn the adjusting nuts. The chain...
Thanks Outlaw. I did check the height of the adjusting bolts on the left side. The jackshaft seems to be higher and thus, the chains are tighter on that side. Can't imagine how they could have been...
Last evening I counted the links - same number on both sides. The chains are not new. Looks like an awful lot of adjusting - hope there is room. Daylight now. Hopefully will get to it today. Will...

Hate to muddy the water but there have some new discovery. I had a friend come over to assist me check out the problem. He does some machinist work. Had good lighting this time, the machine was on...
You guys are great - thank you so much.
Thank you Amphibious drew. Appreciate the help. Hope your day is great.
OK will check that thank you. One more thing, just loosened the chain tensioner and hand rotated wheels so that the front sprocket rotates 360 degrees. Odd thing - every 360 degree rotation there...
Hello everyone. I have a 1996 Max II. I noticed a noise (clicking) in the left front chain area. A few months ago I replaced the chain tensioners with the new type that has a bolt and nylon...
I have a 1996 Max II 23hp Vanguard with 5 inch wheel extension. I bought chains for the machine and love them. I have a black tote (used by ice fishermen) that I load up with wood. I have...
