Just picked this unit up used. All appears okay except for the drive belts which are worn. The smallest broke and I was able to replace it with an o-ring I got at an auto parts store. But the larger ones are a problem (slipping/loose) and I do not know their sizes. Does anyone have a source for purchasing replacements? Thanks in advance. John |

If O-rings work, or if the belts are only stretched but not cracked, one possibility might be to cut one and rejoin it with super glue. There are even kits (probably too expensive for this purpose) for making your own custom O-rings this way. Some automotive oil filters use big o-rings. I once got a Wollensak tape recorder working using the oil filter O-rings from an old Mercedes diesel. |

I have new belts for many projectors. As for your DeJur, my guide shows several sizes and only lists an 86Z projector so if you give me the circumference of the belts you need I can check my stock. Thanks. Bill |

Thanks for the feedback. May explorer the cut and paste routine. Regarding which belts I need: I'd like to replace them all. Could I get pricing on a set? I will try to find sizes on them (before I cut them). Thanks again. |
