Wayne,
I can remember my dad running a feed mill(hammer mill) from the farmall side pulley. Wish I could help on rpm, but I cannot. What I do remember, is him putting a twist in the belt to run the hammer mill the correct direction with the tractor facing the feed throat of the mill.
You sure have gotten a lo of help on this topic and every one of us skirtted the issue of saddle soap and pulley dressing. I remember my dad using either crankcase oil or molasses on the belt to dress it when it started to slip from hay/grain dust. His belt was not leather, but regular belting, unfortunately everything including the maching and lacing he used for lacing the belts were tossed a couple of years ago after he passed.
