I have a brownie 3/4 hp. The gilmer belt finally broke and I replacxed it. The problem is that the dial doesn,t match the speed of the machine. How do I get it to line up properly? Also it is very hard to adjust the bushing to tighten the gilmer belt. Thanks Any help will be appreciated.:)

I was just told by the factory, the gilmer belts were on backorder, where were you able to come up with one?
Look at the second thread down, all things SS are here.
