plastic track installation

[squirrel13]

hope you guys can help, I've seen in the argo manual that when installing plastic tracks they say to reverse some or the tires so the tread is opposite. just wondering if anyone can tell me if this is a must? or do you just deflate some tires and put the tracks on?

When I owned and ran the plastic tracks I never reversed any tires,the plastic tracks were more forgiving than the rubber cousins,as far as a install I would flatten the end tires and ratchet straps to pull them together spray generous amount of WD 40 on the hinge and set the pin and never seize the lock collar and then paint the lock collar so i would know which pin the collar set screw would likely come out of when it was time for removal.NCT
