Lift the faulty track of the ground by raising the digger with the dipper arm.
if you look at the middle of the carriage that holds the track (between the drive sprocket & idle wheel) you should see a small steel plate. This is normally held in place with 2 bolts, remove it & you should then see a "Grease Nipple". If you screw this out you will then be able to push (may need knocked back with sledge hammer) the idle wheel back along the carriage, giving you enough slack to put the track back on. Screw the nipple back in and pump with grease till the track had reached the required tension.

Were do you buy parts for IHI mini excavator track drive?
IHI mini excavators are great machines, but the downfall of some is the crappy Nachi track drives they use. These motors and planetarys are "OEM only" - in other words, they are only supplied to the machine manufacturer and therefore are are very expensive to repair or replace. I suggets you do what I am now in the process of doing - changing both motors with brand new motors of another reputable brand, cheaper than I can get the parts to rebuild one Nachi unit! Good luck!
