Paul: As CNKS and Haas have told you get that belt tight. In fact get it tight enough that you could pick a southern banjo tune on it. Like Haas said, my Woods will also do this if dull or driving too fast. One of the first things I notice when my machine is getting dull, the drive pullies and belt get hot.
