Have put new replacement belt onto drum of tumble dryer but cannot stretch the belt enough to go onto the motor shaft spindle. Have tried a piece of steel pipe as advised on YouTube but will not stretch enough. Is there another way to put it on if mending from the rear panel instead?
There are a lot of dryers that do not have adjustable motors for tensioning belt. Giving the make & model would be a big help. If you are sure that belt is the same as the one that was on there before then watch the you tube video again & follow that. They are the experts.

You never stretch a belt on,you loosen the motor off put the belt on and re tention it.
