Mine has a piece of aquarium tubeing for a belt. It has a little dowel inserted and glued to keep the ends together. It came that way when I bought it at a garage sale and I never changed it, works great.

Hey there here are the links to cleaning the machine and if you do not want to go that far into it you can always send it to me for a full service spa treatment!

I get my treadle belts at the local Pfaff dealer. I use the zoom oil they sell at Joann's & Wal-mart, the long tube makes oiling hard to get to places lots easier.

Go to EBay. I saw some on sale there for about $4 yesterday. Also you can buy that little clip you need. Do a search on the EBay site for that too.
