Question:
I just got an 1827 EXLT and trying to make a turn in deep snow one of the tracks came off. The manual has a picture of how to "Remove Tracks" on page 20, but I can't figure how how that would help you get the track onto the track hub.

Answer
To reinstall the track you should remove the cover (2 bolts) this exposes the drive mechanism. You will see the track must fit over the drive wheel and the 2 idler wheels fit into the groove of the drive track. You may have to remove one of the idler wheels to obtain the room needed to install the track.
Once you have the track into place, make sure the drive wheel in into one of the slots on the track. Reinstall the idler wheel and cover.
If you feel uncomfortable doing this install. remove the assembly from the Snow Thrower by following the Owner's Manual and take the complete track assembly to your dealer.
