I think belt is longer than that seems as if my spring is real tight all the time doesn't sense real well. I think the AFX pulls a lot easier, I still have my chrome speciality rotor if some one wants to change. I think everybody had trouble with that dam new rotary screen Vetter's at onawa told me there is a finer one available. does your amchine have plenty of power I am thinking of trading for a new 2388 or a 8010 I can not make up my mind.
