I sent him email, but he said his reference book is at his house and he won't be able to check it out until he returns. Sorry. He said in the meantime try http://www.turntablebasics.com/ or better yet, try: http://www.elexatelier.com/sony.htm which lists: Sony PS-LX510 turntable tonearm belt replacement $12.90 Good luck!

I had forgotten that I had some leftovers from a belt kit, that I got several years ago, for re-belting a Sony SL-5200 Beta. Found one that fit! Still needing to locate the white lithium grease, but it least it's playing through w/o sticking. Would also lover to source a copy of the owners' manual; or least, what the little slide-weight on the side of the tonearm is for (or what it should be adjusted to). I had thought that all T4P cartridges tracked at 1.25g/f, leaving the necessity for that, a mystery to me! Did find a PDF for the PS-LX520, but that one doesn't have the weight (go figure!).
