Hello

Does anyone know if the PR 1060 is compatible with a sh1000 sound head? The PR 1060 has the belts driving it but the sh1000 seems to be gear driven only. Maybe there is a sprocket attachment for the PR1060? Also is there a certain pully for a reel arm for it? I think they were optional on the PR 1060 ?

Thanks

There were kits that fit an XL to a SH-1000. The PR-1060 is basically the same frame and drive train as with the XL. Replacement of the belt sprocket with a gear set is the common fix for this.

That's the setup we had here. The SH1000s powered various Brenkert models before I went to XLs
