I just got an older unit, I assume it's greenie . There is no sn plate and I see some green on the side cover under the Wilkie button below where vent plate would have been. The rest is rust and oxidized paint over aluminum and dirt. Are all the SS drive belts the same? I'm going to try a 1/2x26 Kev...

Yep, gonna have to contact customer service. I only ran it once until I saw mikes demo. Then I got inspired, came home and ran it the other night , it didn't sound like mikes machine. But I didn't know that. I feel a vibration also. Since I had nothing to compare to, I was unaware anything was wrong...

Hi rjent I saw your post on mike young demo February 2015. Now Fast fwd to February 2017 a week or ago in Lowes Pasadena , tx. I drove 2++ hours from Louisiana for his demo, only to find that Lowes had him set up at the very corner of the contractors last loading door. U know ,the other loading door...
