Description

This pulley keeps the dryer drive belt properly guided and tensioned so the drum rotates smoothly. Replacing a worn pulley restores reliable belt tracking and helps eliminate belt noise and slipping. What it does

• Guides and tensions the dryer drive belt so the drum spins evenly.
• Prevents belt rubbing and reduces squealing or grinding noises.
• Helps stop belt slipping that can cause the drum to stop turning or tumble intermittently.
• Supports smooth, quiet drum rotation for consistent drying performance.

What's included One pulley. Install notes

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before starting any repair.
• Access may require removing the dryer front panel or lower access panel; follow the appliance's service instructions.
• Inspect the drive belt and replace if cracked or stretched when installing the pulley.
• Reassemble panels and test the dryer on a short cycle to ensure proper belt tracking and quiet operation.
