Simpson Maxidry Tumble dryer (Cloths dryer) How does the drive belt tension arm and spring fit inside a Simpson maxidry 1200p. Which way does it go? The old belt had broken and the tension arm and sring was just sitting in the bottom of the dryer.
Hi there, There is a switch at the bottom of the dryer. It has a groove for the spring to fit around. Then the spring goes through the metal tag with the holes in the pulley. The pulleys 2 prongs then fits into the slot near the motor. The belt goes through the pulley and around the motor wheel. When fitting the drum, tape the belt at three points on the drum with the machine door facing down making installation easier. Once installed remove the tape. The dryer now works like a dream. See the attached photo. Good Luck!
