Hi gang,

I own a Myford Mystro lathe, replacing the belt is a big hassle. the
bearing has to be taken out and the pulley and spindle have to moved before
you can replace the belt. The belt is a poly-v belt ( flat belt with lots
of little V-Grooves on the underside) about a half inch wide.

Can anyone tell me if this belt can be replaced with a link belt? Would
save a lot of bother if it can. Thanks in advance for any advice.

I don't think so because your pulleys will have lots of little V
grooves as well and a link belt only needs 1 big one.
