What is the "direct drive" system. Is it a belt?

Opening up the drive reveals two gears (one small and one a little bigger) that have a rubber band-type belt connecting them. There may be plastic gears further back, but what I can see right up front is a rubber band. Hope that helps

Here is a link to a site I found on google : http://www.turntablebasics.com/belts/sony.html. I would also look in the manual to see if Sony list a part number for the belt. I have since upgraded to the Denon DP300F turntable, much better IMO.

It is manual but I have had no problems with it so far. I did buy the belt lubrication spray just in case but havent had to use it yet. Very happy with this purchase - I will note I feel like I get more of a work out with the manual treadmill than I do with the motorized.

The system that I purchased for my little brother is a super slim. It has the manual sliding option.

I looked on gates website for mine too. All i remember is it was a slightly tough job but my belt never came off again. I even had someone hit the throttle several times while i sprayed it with my water hose. Didnt even squeal after the install but keep up with the belt part number because the stock belt no longer works

The belt moves downward. The direction of the belt and/or disk sander is not reversable.

No, I dont have any problem with the belt drive, after a year using it still smooth and quiet. It was little tricky do the right adjustment, I would wish it will be more options but it possible simulate my TRY bike, my road bike and my wife road bike. It is very good exercise bike and I like it.

No the bike is not belt driven. The pedals are attached directly to a weighted and balanced flywheel. The resistance is applied magnetically. Very smooth and quiet.

I just found a 1 TB SATA drive at tiger direct for $69 and a rebate for $10 (making it $59) and it works perfectly. Whatever you get, make sure it's a SATA drive. These systems do not use IDE drives, and they are never easy to return if you buy the wrong one.

The old belt drive rail will work ANC it doesn't come with a new belt it comes with replacement safety sensors, door bracket, curved door arm, user guide, motor unit, (1) 3-button remote, and one wall control (it must be used as the old wall controls and remotes won't work with the newer unit)

Hi. Yes It works just fine. I took a good look at mine yesterday. It still looks very good with no signs of slipping and it ran good all last summer with the air on with no problems. I wish I would have found this 4 belts and several pulleys ago.

It is a Belt-Driven Drive, but it's already attached to the pulley system, you don't have to assemble anything.

Not sure, I went to www.vintage-electronics matched my Technics to the list of belts they had in stock. Purchased two of them to have a spare,works great with my twenty-something years old player.
