where could i find a diagram or video on how 2 transform a dryer belt i cant find it someone told me to take out the tumbler i cant seem to figure out how to get to the belt i have an old electric whirlpool dryer
I come up with on most dryers of your type you must first lift the top. There are 2 spring catches you must release. They are accessed by placing a 'thin' putty stab the crack between the top and front surfaces about 3 inches from each edge,,and push. If the lint filter is in the machine top, first remove the 2 screws below the screen.
After you Lift the top you will see the drum. Remove the door switch electrical wire.
The front panel of the dryer acts as the front conduct for the drum so as you remove the 2 screws holding the front panel in place,top L&R be ready to support the drum. Take the front panel from the 2 alignment pins at the bottom. You now have access to install the belt kit.

Have you looked within a dryer. It is pretty simple. There is usually a bearing in the back, take out the 2 to 4 screws and slip the belt on, put it around the motor and put the screws back in.

Have you tried fascinating off the back of the dryer? That is usually where they are on the older ones. In the back and low I think. If you still cant find it then try and find the motor, just follow the electrical wires for that. They belt is on a site on the motor. Good luck

If the lint filter is in the machine top, first remove the 2 screws below the membrane strain.

How do you replace a tumble dryer belt?
May 27, 2008 by Katie F | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I bought a new belt, and am taxing to repair my tumble dryer (a Creda 37751).
As fas as I can tell, the belt has to go around the drum, the motor and then the two pulleys. It seems too tight, though, and the drum won't finger.
Any suggestions?
did u get the put right size belt for your dryer? u have to get the belt around the drum so lift the top lid of the dryer....stick something stiff and flat in the front of the dryer lid...there are 2 clips about 4 inches from each end....fitting push on the clips and lift the lid.....next u have to get the drum loose from the front door....look for the screws to do this....take off the drum from the door gasket just far enough to get the belt around it...then around the pulleys and motor
