How badly did you throw the track? Completely off, so that that side is on the ground? Just off the idler (front wheel)? If it is off the idler, you may be able to loosen the track adjustment and back (slowly) it back on with a heavy chain and binder to the other track pulling it onto the idler. Very dangerous and not for the inexperienced. Longer and safer, find the master pin (it will look different than the other pins) it will have some sort of locking system which you must release. Drive the master pin out and lay the track out and drive the tractor onto it bring the track end up over the spocket as you drive forward. Block the end of the track, you are moving toward, up with some wooden blocks so it is at about 45 degrees and 6 to 8 inches off the ground. Run the tractor forward until the idler is against the raised track. Now pull the track end coming over the top down to the raised end and replace the master pin and locks. Now have a cold one, you'ved earned it. Best Wishes,
Lee
