Would this type of belt work for you ? Maybe you have don't have to take anything apart. Is adjustable.

I have never seen that type of belt in a 1/4" 2L size.
We need to know which type of Deluxe headstock you have to give instructions on how to change the belt.
Chris,
He has the older style with the rack and pinion drive.

OLDER STYLE HEADSTOCK BELT CHANGE

#1 Remove the front plate off of the headstock.
#2 Remove the top plate off of the headstock.
#3 Remove the clip that is on the bottom back side of the headstock that keeps the headstock locked to the bed of the lathe.
#4 Now lift the headstock up off the bed and slip the new belt around from one end and into the middle.
#5 Now set headstock back down on the bed and put all plates and clip back on and you are ready to go.
