I replaced my second w-125 belt today.

Took only 10 minutes.

I lost my belts on my W185 Friday. Question: Why does this always happen on Friday when you can't get belts till the next week? I was bummed because the machine would be lost for the weekend. I checked my belt supply and found 2 Unimac belts only 1" different, so I threw them on and it was off and running. The Wasco belts will be in Monday and I will change them out then.

The handest tool for a Wasco that you can find is a 5 way star bit screw driver. It will handle the bastard(metric nut driver) hose clamps and open the backs(star bit) on the larger machine.

LOL...
I keep forgetting to get that wrench. I keep having to vise grip them off!!

My part guy says there is a double pulley thing a majig that can be swapped on the motor shaft to allow use of two belts. Seems smart and I'd look into in except I think the machines will have to come out to access the motors.
