not even on a
Pancake motor machine!!!......its still a bit of a strain!!!!.....you may have used sanitares. BUT, do u know how many F&G eurekas have come in and out of my hands in the last 5 years????>....trust me....eureka belts for eurekas, hoover belts for Hoovers.
and the difference in blender motors and pancake motors are......blender motors have a adjustable sleeve berring in the top of the motor. and a pancake is a double ball bering motor. in the 60's and 70's most Eurekas use the pancake motor, but they were only 3.5amps....the blender motor didnt come out till the late 70's, then the pancake motor was finally beefed to 6.0amps with the introduction of the ESP. so pancake motors are not just higher ampage.....they are just a better quality motors.
