replacement pulley for Taurus lll

Post by Joy »

My Taurus lll has a blue pulley wheel that won't screw back into the plastic plating anymore. I'm not sure if it has bearings in it that might be seized maybe? I would like to replace the whole 3 piece assembly connected with that pulley. There is a red kidney shaped base that is screwed into the body and the pulley that keeps the tension on the drivebelt. Has anyone had an issue with the small pulleys? where can I buy a replacement? all I have found are the bigger ones.
Thanks, hope I described this so it makes sense!

Go here: http://geminisaw.com/taurus3.html Click on the link that says Manual and Parts and identify the exact parts you need. Depending on the part, they could be carried by a glass wholesaler, by His Glassworks, or others.
