22/04/2013· The drive belt is a timing belt, but on my machine, it was actually 2 belts sidebyside. Is that right? I was expecting one wide belt. I ran the motor and gear box with no belt and they were nice and quiet. The issue seems to be in the pulley. So is my drive belt wrong? Was it too tight? I think the machine has been sitting a while and the pulleys are a bit rusty. Thoughts?, 07:57 ...

28/11/2003· I just brought home a Cincinnati Horizontal Mill with NO arbor support. The mill came in a collection of used very old equipment. I was told the mill is a #2 mill but was given a book for the #1 mill plus a couple of arbor supports for the #1 mill. These supports are too small for the mill I have. I bought a arbor support from Destiny Machinery which is suppose to be for a #2 mill. It seems to ...

23/03/2018· We broke our spindle drive belt last week and ordered up a new belt. How tight should the belt be? We first put it on hand tight (pushing the spindle motor back to get it tight) and you could see the belt whip a little when speeding up and slowing down.
