Bridgeport heads changed over the years, and step pulley heads use a different belt, so check the part number in your manual or on the old belt. If you’re not sure, call us with the head type and serial number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnything to watch when fitting it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSet the speed to its lowest setting before you remove the old belt, as this opens the motor pulley and gives the most slack. Make sure the new belt sits fully in the pulley grooves, then run the speed through its range with the motor running to check it changes smoothly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow quickly will it arrive?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe ship across the UK by Royal Mail, or FedEx for express delivery, and we ship internationally too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tb-prod-note\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot sure it’s the right one?\u003c\/strong\u003e Call \u003ca href=\"tel:+442081382848\"\u003e020 8138 2848\u003c\/a\u003e with the code on the old belt or your machine details and we’ll check it for you.
