Emco Compact 5 toothed belt

[Pete92]

Hello,

Does anyone know where I can get a new toothed belt for the stepper motor drive on a compact 5.

I have had a quick look on the internet but cant see much, though I don't really know what im looking for. How do I measure the belt?

Cheers,

Pete

Pete,
This guy in the States http://www.ebay.com/usr/gmaxton breaks Emco machines including Compact 5PCs and was very helpful when I wanted several toolholders. At least he may have some second hand belts or be able to define their size for you.
