I can't figure out how the drive belt spring tensioner goes on and where you secure the spring to creat the tension. Anyone able to assist with pictures or diagrams?
It sounds like the trouble I had with SIMPSON MAXI DRY457
WHEN YOU get the spring into one of the tension adjustment holes Believe it or not when you pull the spring back looking for something to hook onto, the ELECTRICAL SWITCH HAS A (U) SHAPE 1/2 WAY ALONG IT,HOOK AROUND THIS. IF THE BELT COMES OFF OR BREAKS THE DRYER STOPS!!!!ONCE THE SPRING LOOSES TENSION!! safety feature!!!
