Vacuum Collector Belt

[Guest]

Hey everyone, I broke out the old vacuum collector for the B-110 the other day and promptly broke the drive belt from the left side of the bevel gear box to the blower. Does anyone know the length of that belt?? In addition, where is the spring for the idler pulley supposed to mount? Thanks for your help guys. Colin Brown P.S. - Just picked up an HB-212 this afternoon with headlights (a little dinged up) rear work light (very dinged up), hydraulic lift, and hubcaps (a bit rusty). Now I have another little restoration project.....

Herb, can you by chance give me the overall (tip-tip) measurement on that spring? Our spring is mounted as shown, but appears to have lost its zip! I'd like to compare your spring to ours in length and adjust accordingly. Thanks! Tom
