A worn belt often points to sheave problems. Check sheave grooves for wear, cracks or embedded debris. Misalignment or a worn groove can destroy a new belt quickly, so correct any issues before installation.
Verify that the sheave groove profile matches the belt's narrow V cross-section. Clean the grooves and confirm that the belt sits correctly without bottoming out. Ensure the drive is locked out and tensioned according to the drive manufacturer's specifications.
