Hi Guys,
I have a Craftex lathe CT039 and the speed change belt is so tight that it is impossible to change speeds. As a result the lever that controls the belt adjustment from tight to loose has no effect. I ordered another belt from Busy Bee, part number PCT039-37 and got the same effect. The belt looks something like a large O-Ring. I am thinking I might have to measure the center distance and go to a belt company but it is not an ordinary Vee belt. Has anyone got any suggestions on how to solve this problem. Thank you for your time.
Colin
