Edison Triumph: Belt question

Post by hexaphone »

I have been told the Model D has a larger belt than the other Triumphs. Is that true? I thought the E had basically the same motor. Anyone chime in on my confusion?

Thanks
Ron

I never heard that - - as long as the belt tightener is in the same relative position between models, the belts should be the same length on all Triton motors.

Thanks George. I did look at my A D and E and the belt size measures the same. It just drove me curious why someone found or thought the D was different. I thought with all the variants that exist with machines, maybe this was one I wasn't aware of. The mystery continues.
