I HAVE RECENTLY BOUGHT A KB DISCOMATIC X100 WHICH IS IN GOOD WORKING CONDITION. THERE IS A LITTLE WORK NEEDS DOING TO FULLY RESTORE IT. THE MAIN DRIVE BELT HAS DETERIORATED AND IS IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. IS THERE ANYWHERE I COULD SOURCE THE BELT FROM? FAILING THAT DOES ANYONE KNOW THE SIZE OF THE BELT SO I CAN HAVE ONE MADE. THE REFERENCE FOR THE BELT IN THE SERVICE MANUAL IS 8/339, DOES THIS MEAN ANYTHING TO ANYONE? :?

If I know right the KB uses two drive belts: a smaller and a larger one.
If I also know right the rubber belt for AMI scan control models K and Conti can be used to replace one of them - but it might be the smaller one.
This belt can be ordered at Victory Glass at http://www.victoryglass.com. It's their item #40-6556.
I have no idea about the other one.
