Hi all,
I recently acquired an Atlas 7B shaper that I'm doing a semi-restoration on.
I have it cleaned up fairly well, and the motor is wired up and running as of today.
Both belts need replacing, and I have new ones of the proper sizes in hand.
Here's my question: How do I replace the one that lives between the step pulleys on the "operator" side? Not the motor drive pulley, that one's easy, the other one. I can't see a simple way to replace it. The belt visible in the photo is the one in question.
I've had the motor completely off for cleaning and rewiring, and that didn't help, so any advice appreciated.
-Mike
