Not familiar with that model, but the model no and description of the speed control mechanism leads me to believe that it may be similar to the MC900 wood lathe sold by various sellers.

A picture or pictures would assist members in identifying not only what parts you are looking for, but which lathe model it is for.

Searching the forum shows that the ryobi wood lathe model WTL900 is exactly the same as the HAFCO Woodmaster W382, or WL-18 WOODLATHE, factory model MC900 according to another member who had the same problem. (http://www.woodworkforums.com/f8/ryobi-wtl900-45804/)


That model is sold by Hare & Forbes.

If it helps, open this page Std 900 (http://www.axminster.co.uk/axminster-axminster-awvsl900-woodturning-lathe-prod780608/) and then the Downloads page. It's the instruction manual and that contains a parts list.

I've got a spare set of the pulleys for the drive arbor (http://www.woodworkforums.com/f221/mc900-reeves-pulley-spindle-set-144600/), but unfortunately not for the motor shaft.

There seem to be two variants for the drive arbour configuration and it might be a similar story for the motor shaft. Double check specs if you order a generic MC900 replacement part.

I got the spare set from Harbor Freight in the US while I was OS and found it didn't fit my lathe when I got home. I then found a set that did fit at Carbatec.
