Atlas MFC Milling Machine belt
I have been rebuilding a MFC miller for about 2 years now. I finally have
everthing cleaned up, painted , and ready to go back together. I finally looked at the drive belt and realized that I have to take the head apart to get a one piece belt on. The old belt was made of rubber /canvas links that were pinned together. Where can I find one of these or is there another solution short if disassembly ? Thanks, BW |

Atlas MFC Milling Machine belt
Where can I find one of these or is there another solution short if
disassembly ? Disassembly isn't that hard. The instructions are online at the Atlas/clausing site; it's the only procedure they've posted for the MF mills. See http://www.atlas-press.com/tb_hmillbelt.htm Your MFC should have two-step pulleys, not 3 used in some earlier machines. When I did this I used a Gates Truflex 3290 (5L290) belt. Pete |
