[SEL] The ultimate belt tension

[Richard Strobel]

    Howdy again;
  I don't know if I can do it, but I'd like to be able to disengage the belt 
tensioner on the saw outfit and have the blade stop.  The pulley's are 24" 
and 6" in diameter.  This makes the belt circumference 176"  If I make the 
belt as long as possible so that when the tensioner is disengaged, and I 
have the most slop availabe,  do ya'll think the belt will slip and the 
blade will stop?  Personally I doubt it, but thot I'd ask.

TIA
RickinMt.
