Has anyone fitted the upper drive belt. Please give me tips on how to do it.

Any pictures? If I see it I might help you eventually figure it out.

It’s not the 600, but it might be similar:

Just did some homework, and found out that actually I once owned this very same projector (or the rebadged ones).



While the upper long drive belt isn't as dead easy to replace as the motor belt, it's still very possible and straightforward.


While the amplifier board does partially block the belt path, but if my memory is correct you don't have to completely remove it from the chassis. It oulw be just a matter of loosening a few screw to slightly move the board away, to make enough room to loop the belt around the pulley. Same goes to the white resistor on the upper right. Would be a bit fiddly, but still very doable.

Can you show where the screws are located so that I can change the upper belt on the Sankyo Sound-600.

Try just releasing the two screws holding the motor on and pull the motor towards you. Also unscrew the ceramic part above the speed controller. You should now have room to thread the belt. Then just replace the screws.

Jan, were you able to get the new belt installed?

[Jan Boström]

Nej , jag har inte lyckats montera den nya remmen. Jag vet inte hur den nya remmen skal gå runt alla remskivor.. Har någon monteringsbeskrivning?’

Moderator's note: No, I haven't managed to install the new belt. I don't know how the new belt should go around all the pulleys.. Do you have any installation instructions?

[Janice Glesser]

There's only two pulleys... Just answered the new belt inside the pulley groove. Take a look at the photos and you'll see what I mean.

It should have read INSERT the belt into the pulley grooves not "answer". My voice to text translator has a mind of its own.
