the special tool is a bit of copper piping to go over the end of the motor so the belt can slip over, without ripping off your fingers. make sure you test it for a good 5 minutes (both directions) if it is repaired by someone else as ours has been scrapping 90% of the time after being put back together again badly.

Yes it will be the belt. A new thicker belt is now fitted by hotpoint but you need a special tool to fit the old or new type belt
