Hi all, after the success in the surgeries and transplants seems  now  there is a so called: "rejection"..
Austin kindly sent me some stretch elastcated belts  for the spinner as I didn't really know where to look for them or a suitable one ...initially the larger elasticated one  worked fine through some loads, then it torn wrapping all on the spinner basket pulley......so  I just cleaned and removed the wrapped one and so put the other one he sent,  and it immediately got torn as well letting spinner spinning thanks it's inertia force for well 4 minutes...
Now, the original spinner belt was not an elastcated type so for sure elasticated are not adapable for this machine .....it looks to happen always  at the time I shut off the spinner, I guess the brake just makes these kind of belts to slip on one of the pulleys and  torn them due to the friction and slipping...spinner  looked  to run smoothly during spin though...
So I'm here again...do someone know of places where to look for spinner belts for Servis Mk2? Is there a place that produces particular belts by order?  Or  just have to be very lucky finding a suitable one someday???
What would you do if you were in my situation?

Any advice?
Thanks

Take the original belt with you and see if you can get a suitable replacement it may not be the same width but its the length that matters.

Good luck

Austin
