American Dryer Corp 20/31 manual Placing the Belt Back on the Motor Sheave Required Items

PLACING THE BELT BACK ON THE MOTOR SHEAVE:

REQUIRED ITEMS:

3foot Section of 1-1/2” Electrical Tubing Replacement Belt

To stretch the belt back onto the sheave involves using a two foot length of 1-1/2” electrical tubing (Fig. 1). Preparing the end of the tubing as shown makes it easier to use. Position the belt around the tumbler and directly above the motor sheave . Insert the tubing through the belt and onto the motor sheave (Fig. 2).

FIG. 1 FIG. 2 FIG. 3

While pushing the electrical tubing toward the motor, pull the end toward the bottom right corner (Fig. 3). From this position, rotate the tubing clockwise. The belt will move to a position over the motor sheave. Hold the belt against the motor (Fig. 3). Rotate the tubing one more revolution while pulling the tubing out. The belt should drop onto the motor sheave. Rotate the tumbler a few turns while manually preventing the belt from falling off the sheave. This should center the belt on the tumbler and prevent the belt from being thrown off later. Replace all dryer panels.
