Re-attach belt on Simpson Sirocco 455 Dryer?

In correcting a dent in the casing of the dryer, the belt came off. How do I re-attach it?

If it is the belt that drives the fan, look at the back of the dryer.

There is a plastic cover about 30cms long and about 5cm wide with 2 screws holding it on running from the top left on a 45 degree angle to the centre of the dryer.

Take this cover off and simply slip the belt back on over the pulleys.

Should take you 5 mins, I'd recommend getting a new one while you've pulled it out or off the wall because after time they slip off and will continue to do so until you get a new non-stretched belt.
