Thanks,

If I have to remove and replace the belt, how do I do that? I didn't get
any documentation with the lathe?

Kill two birds with one proverbial stone. Sever the belt and replace it
with a link belt. It's easier, requiring no pulley disassembly, and the
link belt will run significantly more smoothly, not to mention lasting quite
a bit longer. The original rubber belt on my Jet 1442 was showing wear at
roughly 50 hours of use. My current link belt looks fine after an estimated
150 hours.
