Replacing the spindle belt


Important notes:

  1. Since the belt between the spindle motor and the spindle is a timing belt, it is not necessary to tension the belt.The teeth on the belt will prevent slipping and hence loss of rpms.
  2. The advantage of a non tensioned belt is also that the spindle motor bearings are not put under sideways pressure.


1. Spindle with cutter and cutter knob
2. spindle with cutter and cuuter knob removed
3. Rotate spindle clockwise and simultaneously move the belt up on the spindle pulley
4. Finally the timing belt will come off the spindle pulley.
