Default Link belt on a G0555?

Anyone put a link belt on the Grizzly G0555 Bandsaw? The pulley and belt
that they use are ribbed like the cutters on a finger joint as opposed to
the typical U shape pulley.


Thanx,

Vic

If that is the serpentine stile wide, flat, and narrow belt you may not gain
anything by changing belts.

Can you change the pulleys?

Doesn't look like an easy option. Upper pulley might be a custom size.
