hello again-thanks to the responses to my previous problem. reelguy mentioned new belts being available somewhere on the site, but i cannot seem to track any links down-anyone know where i can buy them from (pref. in the UK). have found a website in Colorado, and have sent them an email, but would like to buy closer to home so i can get my little machines up and running sooner.
thanks again

Just to add to the belt problem, I have an original large belt for these machines, one in great condition if your interested. I removed it from a dead machine knowing they are hard to get hold of.

Hi Geefunk, You can try http://megascoop.com/beltshop/belt_order.html Also you could try http://s109412501.alturo-host.de/ele...rsatzeile/shop ..12.50 Euro for a set of four.. I should mention that I haven't used these suppliers myself but the former has a copy of the 4308 circuit diagram free to download.. Just scroll down to the bottom of the page. Hope this helps. Also give Colin Braddock a phone call in Blackpool. 01253 345049. I beleive there are others but I dont remember them at the moment... Reelguy. Look for belt sets for Philips
