This was the first one that came up for sale, So I grabbed it.

Do you have part #'s for the belts I will need?

IIRC 22.5 and 25.5 1/2"


Just checked - memory correct


I believe 22 and 25 will work. I recommend the inner cogged belts(more flexible around small radii)

I agree with what JPG said about the Speed Changer version and the cogged belts. 4L220 and 4L 250 belts will work for most cases in place of the original belt spec. Some motors require different belt sizes.

I think I have the Original Motor with Matching Pulleys.

I am Fortunate to have an (Old School) parts store to look for these Belts.

And I am old enough to state (Old School)

They will probably get me these belts with the numbers you Provided.

Thanks.

Look for 4L225 and 4L255 first.

Thanks for the info

Okay

I have an email sent the v-belt guys.

I am going to get a Quote for the belts.

I like doing business with them also.

I received my speed changer today.

With the help of a Friend.

I acquired this.

I have not decided if this will just be a parts machine or?
Because this 10 E #3868 was slim on the accessory side of things.


Here are some better pictures.
