V-Belt Size for Delta Contractor's Saw?

[Kyle Beck]

Does anyone know the right V-belt size that comes with the new contractors saw? I just sold my old one, and gave the belt away with it. Now I have nothing to measure to replace it. The local delta/dewalt/pc store is out of them, but I have a feeling I can pick up a replacement at Ace Hardware or something. Any ideas what size?

Thanks,
Kyle

Go link belt. Woodcraft sells it in 1' and 4' sections. (It's actually cheaper to buy the 1' sections.) You can buy a few feet and make it whatever size you want.

While there is some debate about the effectiveness of link belt on some power tools, I think almost everyone would agree on a contractor saw it make a very big and very positive difference. It sure did on mine!

Thanks! I went an grabbed the 4' link belt from Rockler, using their 20% coupon. Came in at about $28 with tax. Quick question for those with the contractors saws...... did you use all 4'?

Thanks again,

Bought three
