• Reduces squealing or grinding noises caused by worn bearings
• Prevents belt slipping and poor tumbling performance
• Helps avoid premature belt wear or breakage

• Inspect the belt and mounting bracket when replacing the pulley; replace worn components together
• Disconnect power before servicing and follow all safety warnings for your appliance
• Basic hand tools are typically required; follow your model's service manual for disassembly steps
