At $450.oo a pop what are your hints to ensure this doesn't happen again,

Whats the correct tension ?
Pully alignment important ?
Will keeping the teeth really really sharp all the time help ?

any comments would be greatly recieved

The polychain belt sharpens the drums teeth snapping the belt,change over to a triple pulley set up and run fan belts.
