Check your manual. If you don't have, go to bandsawmanuals.com and see if they have the manual for your band saw. Replacing drive belt is easy, the same process on how you install belt on other saws. I saw a video on youtube about, I suggest you watch band saw videos.
For the high speed, (2950 ft/min), the belt should be installed on the rear pulley of both the motor and the wheel. For the low speed( 1445 ft/min), the belt should be installed on the front pulley of both the motor and wheel. To properly adjust the belt tension, turn hand wheel until there is 1/2" deflection in the "multi-vee" belt. Check this link to see the manual. http://www.highlandwoodworking.com/library/manuals/10325_manual.pdf
By the way, where do you get your band saw blades? I got mine from sawblade.com and I happy with them.
Sometimes, its due to quality problem. Well, not quire sure if www.bandsawparts.com have the drive belt that you are looking for. You may try to give them a call .
Hello.How about a power twist link belt ? You can make the belt the length you need,and it will also reduce vibration,a lot. I put one on an old Craftsman bandsaw,and it made a great difference.
If you still have the old belt, take it to a well equipped hardware or auto parts store for a replacement. If the previous belt is missing, you will need to measure the pulley 'V' width at the top of the 'V', the center to center measurement of the two shafts, and the outer diameters of the two pulleys. Hope this helps!
Loosen the motor mounting bolts and slide the motor forward until the belt is slack. When you replace the belt, slide the motor back until the belt is firm, but has about 1/2 " movement up and down at midpoint between pulleys. Recheck after tightening the motor.
