Just bought a used ATM50, and it seems to be eating belts ....

I have disassembled it and it appears all the parts are correct, and the clutch and gears are not locked up ...

I think it may just need a good cleaning, to remove all the crap from the first belt it ate ...

But just wanted to get some other opinions ...


I will post some pictures tomorrow if I don't get it figured out ...


**This is a repost because I posted it in the wrong place , sorry **:doh:

When the belt is new it's more prone to wear, as it needs to wear in a bit. Belt wear should reduce after a while.
If not, try to check the pulley counter spring, I found mine was very weak, resulting in occasional belt slip!
