To answer your question. You need quite a bit of slack in the belt… I drop a 3/4" socket into the "Driven Sheave" after prying it open. You should have nearly an inch to work with. Moving the 'cap' back on the 'shaft' can be a problem even with the smallest of burrs. I often hold the swivel and tap on the cap with a ballpeen to get it to move back. Don't forget to remove the socket after re-assembly.</p></blockquote><p></p>
