To tension the belt, in the absence of any means of moving the motor, a simple adjustable jockey pulley (top left-hand corner of the picture) sliding on a stud, was fitted above the belt run. Unfortunately this "modern" method of engineering a headstock drive had the effect of reducing the number of spindle speeds from 16 to 8 but with a still-respectable range of 55 to 2300 rpm with the maker's recommended 1/3 hp 1725 rpm 60 cycle motor. |
