What happens here
Two individuals are actively working to guide and fit the new rubber track onto the Ditch Witch mini skid steer's rollers and sprockets. One person is shown manually pulling and aligning the track around the drive sprocket and idler wheels, while the other assists in positioning the track and likely using pry bars or similar leverage tools (though not explicitly visible) to help seat the track over the final rollers or the drive sprocket. This step demands significant physical effort and careful coordination to ensure the track is correctly aligned and fully seated on the undercarriage components. The workers appear to be wearing appropriate work attire for mechanical tasks.
Goal: Securely fit the new track onto the mini skid steer's undercarriage
