Your pulley cover is cast?
Mine is thin sheet - same shape though.
I wonder when they changed the design
Mine is also cast.

ThanksI took the old ones to a bearing place and they matched them. It was a Koyo and a FAG, as far as I recall there were two different sizes and they were just deep groove ball bearings. Nothing fancy.
They weren't hard to get, just measure your old ones or take them into a bearing supplier.
It is meant as an extractor yes.
Pressed steel on our M4 like you sayThe Meddings M2 had a cast iron pulley cover, but I also have two M4, one has a cast alloy pulley cover, the other has a pressed steel cover.
im pretty certain i got a 13mm for mine.
(mb2)
i cant get to it at the moment to see if its got the specs on it - its dropped off my "purchases" on ebay.
An A profile belt was suggested for old stuff and they are all 13mm wide. But the grove in the pulley is 10mm wide. Is it normal for the belt to stick out a bit above the pulley? I think mine is running a car fan belt right now and it is bad for slipping.
Thanks Andy - I've just ordered a Z35 which should match the current belt length. They are not so expensive so could go another if that doesn't fit. Will be lovely to have a less slippy drive to make large diameter holes a bit quicker.
