[QUOTE="flyerdan, post: 113377, member: 2510"] The quarter turn is troubling; if the chains aren't on the wheels should spin freely in either direction. If the chains are on there shouldn't be more than about 4" of movement from a fixed point on the tread. If you have that much slack in the chains, it could be piling up until the motor catches up with the reverse direction and unpiles it. Not a good situation, as it will eventually bind up and break something. If chain slack isn't an issue, some models have critical clearance for chains, and a master link can stick out far enough to catch, but that should be just an annoying tick. [/QUOTE]
