Spring is here, which means it’s time for many of us to replace our ATV or UTV’s track system with tires. Elements such as mud, dust, water and humidity can alter and corrode the moving parts of your track system during storage, so now is the perfect time to carry out season change maintenance of your Camso track system. Here’s how:
1. Remove each track system
Carefully group and label all components to avoid confusion. Remove the plates first, then the wheel nuts and finally, the rest of the system.
- CAMSO PRO TIP: Always remove all track system anti-rotation brackets and their components before reinstalling the wheels. Leaving the brackets attached to the suspension arms could cause interference and potentially damage the vehicle.

Using your track system year-round?
See your owner’s manual for recommendations on track tension and bearings.

2. Clean each track system
Gently remove all dirt and debris using a biodegradable degreaser and gentle spray of water. If using a pressure washer, work with extreme care because the spray can damage rolling components.
- CAMSO PRO TIP: Avoid using a brake cleaning solvent, which can damage sealing components and stickers.

4. Adjust all components
Refer to your owner’s manual and installation guidelines for instructions for your specific track system.

5. Lubricate rolling parts
Clean the old lubricant and apply a new coat on rolling parts.
- CAMSO PRO TIP: Pour 5 teaspoons of oil under the wheel caps and between the bearings to extend wheel life.

6. Store systems horizontally
Store your track systems on their side so that gravity can better disperse the lubricant. This will also prevent water from accumulating in the bearings and other parts so that they don’t rust and potentially fail.
- CAMSO PRO TIP: Always store track systems in a dry location away from direct sunlight.
