Hi Su,

Those old Creative Industries wheels came in two flavors, a belt driven
low horsepower wheel and a 1 1/4 hp gear driven wheel, later replaced by
a belt dirven model. They all looked like they were kit built, because
they were very simply but sturdily built. Except for the footpedal!
They had a sliding metal and plastic controller inside the footpedal
box, which ultimately broke. CI created a replacement footpedal and
controller package, which for very little money, solved the prolem
beautifully. It is easy to install, requiring virtually no electronics
skills. I have one of the first 1 1/4 horse models that they built and
have been using it happily for 25 years. The only repair has been the
speed controller.

Contact CI for information on the replacement kit.
