Lifting Belt Replacement Parts

[bigMIKE2118]

Hi. This is my first time starting a thread... ever. I'm not sure if this is posted elsewhere, but I've been searching high and low for replacement screws for my belt. I have a brand new Toro belt, and one of the screws fell out before I even got to use it. If anyone can point me in the right direction, that'd be great. It'd be really cool to find some custom ones.
Thanks,

-Mike

Couple of thoughts...

1) Contact the manufacturer.

2) If the belt has another screw of the same type that hasn't fallen out yet, remove it and bring it to your local hardware store to see if you can find something close. (Don't know about yours, but my local Ace Hardware has a extensive nut/bolt/screw/washer... section.) Screws that are too long can be shortened. If you can't find it at your local hardware store, look online. Check McMaster-Carr and others too.

When you get a replacement, use some medium strength (usually blue) thread locker to keep the screws from falling out again.
