I got a 3-pack of belts. One was the motor belt. The other was the rewind belt. There was also a small belt in the package. What is this belt for? Thanks.

Gary

If it's very thin and short, it's probably for the counter

Gary, If I remember correctly, there are two belts of different sizes that go on the pulleys in front of the motor, not just one. The smaller one goes on the pulleys behind the rubber speed wheels, and the larger goes from behind the speed wheels to the motor....

Joe is correct. The smaller drive belt goes around the two drive wheels. The film counter belt is very tiny.
