Replacement of drive belts

[gelu_b]

Hello everyone,

I'm going to change the original sand paper drive belts with the rubber belts to my Carvewright machine (B model) and kindly I'm asking you to let me know if I could find more data about this operation: maybe a demo video, other trips & tricks, after changing calibration procedure (I downloaded the specific pdf leaflet instructions).

All I know of is the pdf which I suppose you already have. I have just done exactly that myself. Sandpaper to rubber on my B machine. All I can suggest is that you ask questions here if you have any trouble.

i just changed my sandpaper belts on one of my old machines,and it was just as simple as the directions said ,i was really suprised how easy it was. one tip though,they say to use a vise,but i used bar clamps works great took about 20 mins no problems

Yeah the clamps make it simple.. I use the quick clamps !!!! LOL They stay on the piece as I'm tightening..
