I opened up the machine to learn more about it, but the wheel I ordered wasn't enough; I needed the metal washer behind it too. This caused a two-week delay in using the machine, upsetting my renters. More importantly, unless there's a special tool or technique, I couldn't have reassembled the machine without my husband's help. He had to physically maneuver through the barrel to get the belt back on the spinning wheel, which was extremely difficult due to the spring holding the wheel tight. We had to disassemble and reassemble the barrel multiple times. Even though it's working now, I can't recommend this process to anyone else. However, I'm glad I could clean out all the lint and dirt from the machine, which could have caused a fire. What should I have done differently or what advice can you give for future reference?
