Belt update both supplies and inventory of belts:
- We have 4 belts (1/4" OD) matched set for use on 30" shaft center to center distance with 3" OD pulleys.
- We have 11 belts (1/4" OD) matched set for use on 12.5" shaft center to center distance with 3" OD pulleys.
- We have approximately 180" of belting cord left from the 50' roll.
- During rally we smoked front belt conveyor motor (was a fisher price motor). We reduced shaft center to center distance ~ 1/2 inch. Should be near 12".
- During motor replacement and revent back to original (90-50?) motor we polished down the motor shaft to .125 / .126" to reduce press fit with pinion.
- Also small radius on the end of the motor shaft to help with assembly. Pinion must to square and all surfaces clean with light oil wipe on motor shaft.
- There is another motor in the shop on the center table in a box with other transmission parts and the tools to assemble and disassembly.
- That motor has the shaft polished down to about .126 / .127" - it should be polished down to the above size if that motor continues to work well.
- Josh, Alex Wolf, Larry, Brandon, Mike Wolf, Tom K, and Tom C.
