I picked up a very nice Mission 775s yesterday for an absolute song and I'm noticing that it's running a little fast. I've searched for a solution but given the relative obscurity of this table it's difficult to find much info. I have read the original manual and it doesn't mention any ability to control speed, only that it takes about ten seconds to get up to proper speed.
It still has the original belt which I constricted slightly by gently heating it (It had been slipping a little). Would a new belt make it run slower? I'm also considering applying a higher viscosity oil to the bearing in hopes of slowing it. The manual doesn't mention what type of oil I should use.
I'm really impressed with this machine and I'd like to get it running perfectly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I should note that I cleaned all surfaces in contact with the belt, pulley, etc.
