Howdy YouTubers!
today we're going to shortcut part of a restoration of a jointer. flat belts are very fickle when it comes to alignment of the pulleys. the slightest deviation as little as a tenth of a mm is enough to cause the belt to walk off the pulley during operation.
so today we're dressing the pulley on this machine in situ to avoid the pains of tearing down, re-assembling and re-aligning the motor to the machine.

A note of caution: do not try this if you are fearful of the machine. if you do attempt this procedure, do not wear jewelry or loose clothing
