What hours on the motor pulley (sheave) on SP4012

[Creeker]

G'day gents,

I suspect the 6 X V belt pulley(sheave) on the engine is contributing to belt slip on the SP4012.

Wondering what hours everyone is getting out of the engine pulley.

My machine has done 500 hours.

Thanks.

Time for a new belt brother. A word of wisdom is buy only carlton belts. The have theirs made with kevlar and aramid fibers to keep them from stretching. I tried the cheaper route but didn't last and constantly slipped. Also check your sheeve, if it is sharp replace it too!
