Companion 720.24220 Bandsaw Manual, Belt Sizes Please Help

[pmonti]

I just purchased a Companion 720.24220 Bandsaw at an Estate Sale. It's old and made by Sears, I call Sears for parts information but they were no help. The large rubber belt was in pieces so I could not measure it, the band saw length measures 52 inches.

Does any one know where I might find the rubber belt, band saw and a manual for this unit.

I'm new to this type of saw so any information would help.

G'day and welcome,

Many bandsaws come from a common manufacturer and are just badge engineered.
I would suggest you look at new bandsaws on the internet and see if you see something similar to yours.
If successful you may be able to get spare parts from that supplier.
Good luck

This is an old band saw and too hard to find more information. Just try to calculate the belt yourself - this link would help Calculate Belt or Band Saw Blade Length | VintageMachinery.org .
