I appreciate your offer to help, but I am in Canada ... not that far though, about 5 hours around the lake from Cleveland. As it happens, I took the deck into a local stop a couple of weeks ago, and I got it back this afternoon.

They installed a new capstan belt that I supplied, cleaned and lubricated a few things, including a complete disassembly, cleaning and lubrication of the supply reel. Everything is working well now, and I hope it will be good for some time. Thanks again for your advice.
