I have a question and I'm hoping someone here can help. I have a
bandsaw that was my father-in-law's.

The brand is "CONTINENTAL ULTICUT" it's a 14". Which I'm assuming
they do not make anymore, or at least various online searches couldn't
help.

Here's what's happening: The wheel protector, while not showing much
age (no cracking, still pliable) seems to have lost it's love of life.
It is tightly wrapped on the wheels when they are not in motion, however,
while using the saw, the top one seems to shift and almost come off.

If I take the panels off and turn on the machine, I can see that where
the band is not touching, while the wheel is in motion, the protector
is not touching the wheel.

This just started this weekend, and I can't seem to find any replacement
parts anyplace. Are all proectors for 14" going to be the same size?
Does anyone know what became of CONTINENTAL ULTICUT?

My guess would be that you mean the "tires"? (rubber-like bands that are on each
wheel)

measure the diameter of the wheels and call any saw shop, they should have a
replacement for it..
AFAIK, 14" saws have the same size wheels, as they all seem to take a 93 1/2"
blade... (or 105" with riser block)
