If you are afraid to use this, or its use in the shop is not permitted, because of the danger of fire, explosion, etc., use the turpentine alone to loosen the grease. After the belt is cleaned and dry (and this stuff dries quickly), ap- ply a light coat of some good belt dressing, or in the absence of that, a little castor oil. The majority of mineral and vegetable oils are injurious to belts and should not be used. They are used quite extensively though; in fact, it's quite a practice in most shops to take the lubricating oil and pour some on belts that seem to need limbering up. That is not a good practice. The best treatment is to clean all the oil and dust off with the mix- ture mentionfd above, and then apply some good belt dressing, but, in the absence of this, castor oil or a little tallow. The mixture mentioned is for cleaning lea- ther belts and should not be used on rubber belts, because it will cut the rubber. You can clean rubber belts with a little soap and water, but use it sparingly so as not to in- jure it. What you want to do is to take off the grease and dirt and not take off any of the rubber. To make a rubber belt more pliable and stick to the pulleys better, moisten it lightly on the inside with boiling linseed oil. Don't use animal oil or grease on rubber belts. - holes earest e belt from ebelt. 0 -3 s S row from ce leather PQ S e »>£ 5 Jk - ~ c ** 0 â si £ â¢Â« P .3 L g JS"0_S ?
