Welcome aboard, BW! :thumbsup: I agree with monchito - look for a small hole on the motor. It will be where you can insert a small screw driver to adjust the speed of the motor. If someone put new belts on and the belts were too tight, the motor would actually slow down. Then, if the motor speed was adjusted to compensate, once the belts became looser the motor would naturally be faster than normal.

That's just one thing...

Take a pic of the motor if you can.
