Without the sled running, and having the track tension right you should be able to turn it over by hand with litle to medium force aplied. Just go in the skid with it on the stand and spin the idler wheels. If you here a grinding noise and/or feel roughfness you got to change the bearing.

I do not hear any grinding noise but it is a little hard to turn. Track tension is right i do nor think it will hurt to just pull the skid out and check everthing i mean it does not look like i will be riding soon
