Zodiac MX8 / MX6 / AX10 Replacement Tracks | 2-Pack
Is your Zodiac suction cleaner struggling to grip or navigate your pool? Worn tracks are the most common cause of poor performance in Zodiac MX8, MX6, and AX10 cleaners. This 2-pack of replacement tracks restores your cleaner's grip and navigation to like-new performance - at a fraction of the cost of a new cleaner.
If your cleaner is spinning in circles, getting stuck, or leaving sections of the pool uncleaned, worn tracks are almost always the cause.

- 2-Pack Included. Both tracks supplied - complete replacement in one purchase.
- Cost-Effective Repair. Restore your cleaner's performance without buying a new unit.
Signs Your Tracks Need Replacing
- Cleaner spins in circles or moves erratically
- Cleaner gets stuck in corners or on steps
- Cleaner leaves sections of the pool uncleaned
- Visible wear, cracking, or tearing on the track surface
- Tracks feel smooth rather than textured when you run your finger across them
- Cleaner worked well previously but performance has declined over time
How to Replace the Tracks
- Remove your Zodiac cleaner from the pool and disconnect from the hose
- Lay the cleaner on a flat surface
- Locate the track on each side of the cleaner body
- Peel or slide the worn track off the drive wheel assembly
- Align the new track and press firmly onto the drive wheel until seated correctly
- Repeat for the second track on the other side
- Return cleaner to pool and test - it should navigate smoothly and evenly
Tip: Replace both tracks at the same time even if only one appears worn. Mismatched track wear causes the cleaner to pull to one side.
Safety and Storage
- Always disconnect the cleaner from the pool hose before servicing
- Rinse cleaner with fresh water after each use to extend track life
- Store cleaner out of direct sunlight when not in use
- Inspect tracks monthly for signs of wear

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will these fit my Zodiac cleaner?
A: These tracks are compatible with the Zodiac MX8, MX6, and AX10. If you have a different model, contact us with your model number and we will confirm compatibility.
Q: How do I know if my tracks are worn?
A: Run your finger across the track surface - new tracks feel textured and grippy, worn tracks feel smooth. Also look for visible cracking, tearing, or uneven wear.
Q: Do I need to replace both tracks at once?
A: Yes - always replace both tracks together. Mismatched wear causes the cleaner to pull to one side and navigate poorly.
Q: How long do replacement tracks last?
A: Typically 1-3 seasons depending on pool surface type and frequency of use. Rough concrete surfaces wear tracks faster than smooth fibreglass.
Q: Can I install these myself?
A: Yes - track replacement is a straightforward DIY job requiring no tools. Follow the step-by-step guide above. Most customers complete the replacement in under 10 minutes.
Q: My cleaner still isn't working after replacing the tracks - what else could it be?
A: Other common causes include blocked or worn gears, a clogged or kinked hose, or incorrect hose length. Contact us and we can help diagnose the issue.
