There is so much slack when we try to replace the belt. The only instructions we can find are to place the belt around the drum, around the idler pully and motor pully. We can't see anything else we can do to relieve the slack.
Flat side of belt on the drum. Bottom of belt then goes over the top and around the motor pulley then around the idler pulley. See http://www.pcappliancerepair.com/solution2.html#dryhelp6 scroll down for diagram.
