Hi gents,

The subject says it all....leather belt, used the alligator belt
lacing, but the belt comes off often when I first engage the power.
Once it gets going, most of the time, it stays put, just about 25% of
the time on initial power up the belt falls off. Is this because it is
a bit hard (kind of like a baseball mitt when you first start using
it.....

Just wondering if there is a trick to break'n these belts in.

Thanks to all

John

Are the ends of the belt square to each other at the join ? If one is
cocked it will get tossed . Personally I would opt for " Clipper " brand
lacing . Luck
