I would like to know how to change the belt on a Zanussi FJ1033 washing machine. I have removed the top of the machine and flipped it on its side so I can access the motor. However, the belt is too tight to pull over the drum wheel and the space is too tight to work in.
Any suggestions welcome.
Kind Regards,
Cornelius

the rear half of the cabinet comes completely off (split down the sides in the middle).belt is tight as it is elasticated.put it around motor shaft and then around drum pulley.at the point it goes tight on the pully,use the drum pully and rotate it whilst holding/stopping the belt from coming off until the belt is on.
