[QUOTE="Nirwan, post: 1379098, member: 20918"] I had the problem that the belts didn't retract completely. So i tried an old mechanic trick. Most of the time the retractor/receiver is not the problem, the fabric is... In time it will go from a smooth surface to getting loose fibres. This will make the retraction more difficult. If the belt itself gets smooth again, it will retract normally. Furniturepolish is oilbased en lubricates the fibres in the belt, creating a smoother surface which will slide better. Therefore it will retract normally en when completely dry it will "swoosh" back in like a brand new belt. Had the furniturepolish at home and thought, lets try it before i buy new belts. It solved my problem.:D [/QUOTE]
