I picked up a delta dc-33 planer for a song. The v-belts are missing. I called delta to order new belts, but they no longer carry the belts. They referred me to a company that sent me the wrong belts. Delta cannot or will not give me the dimensions. Does anyone out there have this planer that can measure and send me the dimensions. Any help would be appreciated:thumbsup:

RC-33 Triple Belt set

I picked up a delta dc-33 planer for a song. The v-belts are missing. I called delta to order new belts, but they no longer carry the belts.

A matched set of 3 belts is important so that all 3 belts will have about the same tension. There is no idler.
Belts are available at a reasonable price (US$20 for a set of 3, US$4 shipping to Canada, PayPal accepted) : https://westcoastbelts.com/product/new-3-belt-replacement-set-rockwell-planer-model-rc-33-22-651/

Belt tension is correct when a belt can be deflected 1/4 inch by pushing with one finger. Instructions for setting belt tension can be found on page 12 of 1981 manual and page 14 of 1984 manual.
