Hi Brian, all good except trying to source the belt itself. Many hours spent trying to purchase this belt. RIDGID is impossible to get ahold of them. There are some belts online but the spec is not complete enough - that is there are so many variations per tooth profile it is hard to know what is actually being purchases.
