I am needing to replace a v belt in my DoAll bandsaw. The belt goes
from the motor to the varidrive. I have been trying to get the
varidrive apart to change the belt but there is a retaining ring that
is giving me fits. Especially because both of my wrists are bone on
bone joints and they are forced to bend in a bad way when trying to
get the damn ring off. So I'm thinking that maybe one of those link
type V belts might be a good solution. Anybody have any experience
with these type of belt in a var-drive?
Thanks,
Eric

I've seen link belts from 3/8 to 5/8 width, but some equipment may require
something else. Make sure you can get a belt that will work before
committing to that course. Also, link belts ARE expensive compared to
v-belts or cog v-belts.
