Any tips on how to get the belt over that pulley! You know what I mean, that replacement belt that is exactly the minimum size necessary to fit over the pulleys without bending the motor axle. For now my jointer is sitting idle in the shop, dripping blood and sweat as I break my body against it trying to get that belt over the pulley lip.
I was thinking of using a thin crowbar to leverage the belt over the top of the pulley, but it's putting far too much pressure on the cutter axle.
Ah well, really I didn't expect a slew of responses, more just venting aggrevation at the moron who sized the belt for my jointer.
