They aren't supposed to work on the serpentine style belts or so I've been told. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, October 16, 2009 6:44 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] power twist link belts Lenny: are these belts specific to Grizzly or can they be used on other brands of tools, say Delta drill presses. Mine is a Delta and it does vibrate a little bit.
