Here's how to replace the drive belt on a small 6" jointer such as the Perform CCNP. Before you do any of this, you will need to obtain the correct belt, which usually requires time and effort to locate, and will also require the Make, Model, and Serial Number of the equipment. With correct belt in hand, follow these instructions for replacement.
Steps
1. Unplug the jointer. Invert it on a thick cloth to protect the blades and the work surface. Underneath you will see a base plate that covers the bottom and is held in place by seven screws.
2. Remove all of the seven screws and set them aside with the baseplate. With the baseplate removed, you will see the power leads running to the main switch and back to the motor.
3. Remove the hex bolts that hold the motor in place. There are two on one side of the motor (indicated by purple rectangles in the picture), and another one on the other side. Remove them completely to allow the motor sufficient room to move in order to place the drive belt over the motor spindle.
If your hex key is not long enough for this job, hold the key in a pair of pliers or vice grip to remove them.
Now that the jointer is disassembled, this is a good time to clean all the motor housing thoroughly and lubricate, if applicable.
4. Lift and rotate the motor and attach the drive belt. The motor will not easily return to its normal position. In the picture you can see just how far the motor has been turned to get the drive belt on.
5. Insert the hex bolts again, deep inside a very narrow space, whilst using a fair bit of force to hold the motor in place. This is the difficult part, and you may utter a few choice words at this point and consider some unauthorized modifications to the housing.
6. With patience and persistence you should be able to secure the hex bolts once more and once again have an operational planer/jointer. Congs.
A long shaft Phillips screwdriver can help a lot when inserting the hex bolts.
