I need to replace the belt on my bread machine--Regal Ware Kitchen Pro Breadmaker Model K6725. I have the belt, but need to know the correct placement of the belt on the motor rotor part. The rotor has a smooth part and a threaded section. Which one do I place the belt on. The other end that turns the blade is obvious. Anyone have a picture or written instructions?
I have a K6725 Bread Maker that has a broken 'string' type belt. I removed the bottom plate and used a strong zip tie to replace the belt/string used in this model..works..a little noisey but it works.

When I took apart my K6773 to replace the dented outer box with one I
have that doesn't work I noticed that the belt had ridges that matched
the ridges (threads?) on the motor shaft. Maybe your bread
machine has the same set up. If so fit the belt so the ridges on
the belt and shaft fit together. Test by seeing if the belt will
turn the crank for the bread pan.

Where did you get the replacement belt ? My brother is looking for a belt for a similar model K6761 which uses the same belt (I think). It is about 24" around and 1/4" wide. It has (3) grooves inside and the backside has many notches. The motor has grooves, it would go on there. Where did you get the replacement belt ? thanks [email protected]

Hi, guys! I had posted this problem a long time ago and tried to find a belt replacement but couldn't. One fellow online said he had used an o-ring and it worked, so I recently bought one and....BEHOLD! It works! And it cost me all of $1.49 at my local mom-and-pop hardware store. I got the biggest one I could find--it's probably about 8-9 inches in circumference. It didn't look like it could possibly work, but it stretches tremendously and you are able to fit it around the gear wheels in the bottom of the machine just fine. I've only used it once so far, and that was to make a soft pizza dough, so I don't know if it will have the power to knead a thicker, drier bread dough, but it definitely turns the kneading blade just fine. If you decide to try this, you'll need to find a small hardware store where they sell things like this by the part, rather than one of the mega-stores where you have to buy a gross of everything. I wish all the homemade bread lovers who hate to throw out a perfectly good appliance the best of luck with this solution!

P.S. the rotor is the cam shaft.
The belt was purchased(by my neighbor who ordered 2 of them) 3 yrs ago from Regal Ware, Inc. 201-202 2nd Street, Kewaskum, Wisconsin, 530-0395 Phone: 1-800-998-8809 http://www.regalware.com
Regal Ware no longer makes or sells breadmakers, so I have not been able to locate the instructions for replacing the belt. I am still needing those instructons.
This is the latest from Customer Service:
Regal Ware has been out of the breadmaker business since 1999. We never had a manual that showed the instructions for replacing the belt. The breadmakers were manufactured in China so we did not have any drawings. I'm sorry that I am unable to assist you with this problem. We have a Regal Ware Authorized Service Center ....
Best advice: call your local small appliance repair shop and ask whether they do these repairs and how much they charge. It may turn out to be less expensive to buy a new one.
I believe that the belt goes on the smooth part of the shaft and then around the pulley. I took mine apart and the belt is still in tact, but is streched and worn. Does anyone know if another manufacturers belt will fit?
