Has anyone used a link belt between the motor and countershaft pulleys on a Logan 200 Lathe? I seem to be getting some vibration from the v-belt that is on now which is relatively new and appears in good shape. I think v-belts are designed to ride in the v-groove instead of a flat like the pulley on the countershaft. Also, it appears there is a raised portion on the inside of the belt where the splice is. It is a Huskee v-belt from Tractor Supply. I replaced the flat leather belt with a serpentine belt which smoothed the lathe quite a bit but there is still a little pulsing from the v-belt. Has anyone else run into this problem with their v-belt?
Thanks for any help. I need it!
