Unless there's really something peculiar about the drive belt, an equivalent should be available at, or through, an auto parts store. Most likely a better price, too. Bring the old belt and/or specifications if on hand (should be in the user manual). [And buy two, in case of another need for replacement at an inopportune time.]

I rang up Ryobi and bought one from the spares agency. in Adelaide. I think it was about $20. I tried to buy 2, but they only had one in stock.
Joe, I don't think an auto item would fit. It's a very small belt...

Only takes two or three days special order through Bunnies.
My Ryobi 4600 has been working for over four years and I have yet to replace a belt.
