Anyone know how to synchronize the drive controls on a 2014 Takeuchi TB 138FRC mini excavator? The left drive is faster than the right. Thank you,

Tracks the same? Tensioned the same? If they’re using the same style hydrostats as the skid steers it’s not terribly hard to adjust them. How many hours on it? How far off are the sides from each other?
Not hydrostats on an excavator, typically split pumps and control valves. Usually no adjustment as pumps and motors are matched, so up against the stops they should be within a couple per cent.
Only exception I know of would be the Mecalac MCR models.

True, didn’t think about that part of it. When I see Takeuchi my brain goes skid steer!
I'm with you... same only moreso with Bobcat!
By the way, is the problem the same going forward and backward?

It is most notable going forward especially in rabbit mode. The machine has approximately 1400 hrs on it. Tracks are tensioned the same. the machine overall performs very well. It is a bit aggravating when the left control seems to have more power.
