Norge Dryer Axle, Roller, Pulley Parts

This replacement idler pulley keeps the drive belt tight and tracking correctly so the drum can rotate smoothly. It restores quiet, consistent operation when the original pulley is worn or seized and causing belt slippage or noise.

• Maintains proper tension on the drive belt to enable smooth drum rotation
• Provides a low-friction surface for the belt to ride on and stay aligned
• Common symptoms of failure: squealing/chirping, belt fraying or coming off, burning rubber smell, or a drum that won't turn
• Replace if the pulley wobbles, binds, or the rim/bearing is worn

• Disconnect power; if gas, shut off the gas supply
• Note belt routing, relieve tension from the idler arm, and remove the belt from the motor pulley
• Remove the retaining hardware from the old pulley, install the new pulley on the idler arm shaft, and re-tension the belt
• Manually rotate the drum to verify smooth belt tracking before reassembly and test run

This idler assembly is the spring-loaded belt tensioner that keeps the drive belt correctly tightened. Replacing a worn or seized idler restores smooth belt tracking, reduces squeal, and helps prevent slippage or loss of drive.

• Maintains proper tension on the drive belt for reliable power transfer
• Helps prevent belt slippage, squealing, or the belt coming off the pulleys
• Supports smooth rotation of the driven components
• Failure symptoms can include noise from the belt path, a frayed or derailed belt, or loss of motion

• Disconnect power and allow all moving parts to stop before servicing
• Access the belt path; relieve belt tension and remove the old idler assembly
• Install the new assembly; ensure the pulley spins freely and the belt is centered in the groove
• Manually rotate the system to verify alignment and clearances before restoring power
