Take the side plate off and do the big nut up. There is a thread if you search with photos in it of the process

a thread on the forums here ... not the thread with the big nut
JCB 8014 - Track Tensioning
Has anyone any advice on tensioning the rubber tracks on the 8014? The assembly is as per picture with the 30mm nut. The right hand track has slackened slightly. Should I tighten or loosen the nut, and is there anything else I need to take into consideration? I've already had a go at adjusting...

It’s what I do!
Adjusted by threaded bolt, raise the track off the ground slightly, the space between the centre bottom roller and the track surface should be between 15 and 20 mm stick a 17 mm bolt head on the track and adjust.
