change belt on hotpoint vtd20 dryer
mmmm, February 2009
its a arkward job as the new belt will need to be stretched b4 fitting aswll.looking at front of app take lid off then rh side panel. 4 screws at rear and 3 at front poss 1 under neath.one at front from inside behind console. panel now free to remove. thenunclip console to access other screw at lh side when removing this one whole front will tip forwards be careful. left it drop enough to put belt around drum. black pipe at bottom will drop aswell. if you stand looking at rh side where u took panel off lift front panel when putting drum into front bearings and refit blk pipe same time. secure front lh screw and fit belt but will be tight a bit pipe helps . tension can make drum pop out front bearing so keep front against something. put side panel back on a pray belt dosnt pop off motor. u must streatch belt 1st as youll think its wrong belt as same size of drum and need to reach motor about5 inchs below. good luck
