Peter,
My manual provides the same belt identification. I spent a lot of time web browsing and could not get a response on Pirelli A57-1473. In desperation I called a supply house in Michigan and after being passed from the first person to answer who could find nothing on that number reached an person who obviously knows belts. As soon as he heard A57 he said "stop, that's a U.S. belt no. and that the 1473 probably represents the length of the belt at the drive datum (part way down the belt cross-section. The A57 has a 57" inside length and ~59" outside length, almost identical to the original Pirelli belts I removed from the lathe. Thanks for the response.
(I'll try to add to this whether the A57 fits or not.)
