Apr 15, 2011 Belts for Lathe by: Scott W If your still having a problem getting the belt off, just cut it off and replace it with a link belt. They run about $25.00 or so and they work GREAT! I use them on my lathe, band saw, and drill press. You can find them at Harbor Freight Tools, Rockler's or any decent woodworking store.

Dec 13, 2009 Rebuilding 23070 by: Jim R I recently acquired the same lathe, this one had been left in a barn for some years. While disassembling the shaft I had to resort to a brass rod and a bigger hammer. The rust and the two indents for the pulley are the problem. The indents had flared out just enough to drag on the pulley and the rust added more. Once the shaft was removed I filed the rough spots and cleaned the shaft, finishing the shaft with emory cloth. Putting it back together is very easy now and while apart I spent the extra bucks to replace both bearings. Polishing the shaft will make life easier for you in the future if you ever replace the belt again.
