My belt measures 1.620, or about 1-5/8" in width which is about an 1/8" less than new. One thing I'm noticing is that the jackshaft sheeve isn't opening at all during the speed change, and this pulley was the cause of the previous owner wanting rid of it. A new belt is going to run me $135.00, and I'll gladly buy it once I'm sure this bottom pulley is for surely operational. It was a nice surprise to hear that parts still are available for this machine!! Thanks again for the reply, ..it definitely shed some new light on my dilemma!!</p></blockquote><p></p>
