I have a Rockwell/Delta 34-340 that I'd like to sell and am just giving it a final cleaning/alignment before listing it. Until taking it apart, I've always thought it was a 34-335, hence the title. I actually can't find any references to a 34-340. Whenever I've used schematics, I've always used the 34-335 and 34-300 drawings, as they look identical to my saw.
Based on the belt I want to replace, anyone with a 34-300, 34-336, 34-653, 34-654, and 34-657 should have the same setup.
For reference, the 34-335: http://www.ereplacementparts.com/delta-34335-type-1034-table-saw-parts-c-3275_3334_13696.html
(http://www.ereplacementparts.com/delta-34335-type-1034-table-saw-parts-c-3275_3334_13696.html)I'm trying to replace the belt (just a very short timing-type belt), but just am not sure how. My dad and I cleaned this up when I first bought it, and the one thing we never did figure out was how to either 1) get the belt off or 2) get the arbor gear/flange off. Here are some pictures:

- The back, showing the arbor bearing back (the recessed button to the left of that bolt): http://i.imgur.com/YM4Zc.jpg
- Side view: http://i.imgur.com/EOGip.jpg
I've posted about this before (http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?153463-Delta-Rockwell-34-335-repair-assistance), but didn't get much help. I thought this time maybe pictures would help. Searching around I've heard people say to "just pull it off and 'slip' the new one on." This thing is tight and I've tried using a screwdriver to leverage it off while slowly rotating things to try and walk if off the motor output spline shaft... I think maybe I could get it, but I really worry about getting it back on!
I've also tried various methods to try and remove the arbor flange (after letting sit with penetrant for quite a while) and have had no luck.
Any suggestions? They still sell these belts (http://www.ereplacementparts.com/drive-belt-p-161791.html), so someone's replacing them.
