Does anyone have any advice on the easiest way to replace the tiny frame counter belt? I did change one a few years ago on a different machine, also a ST1200D. I don't remember removing anything to do it...or did I? Any tips appreciated. NEVER MIND....GOT IT. I removed the lamp to get the belt on the counter pulley, and the small lower green guide to loop the belt onto the sprocket wheel pulley. [Smile]

Funny, that's exactly what I did to change the belt, too. [Wink]

When I tried it I used a couple of small screwdrivers as sticks to help ease it into place. Also a lot of patience. [Big Grin]
