How do I replace the drive belt on my Zanussi FLA1002W?

I have managed to untangle and remove the old broken belt from my Zanussi FLA 1002W, but I cannot get the new belt - ordered from Zanussi- to fit. Do I need to remove the motor?

your belt is a new type stretch belt ,you put it on like you would put a chain back on a bike,ie put the belt over the motor drive then over one side of the drum pulley,then while holding the belt in position rotate drum pulley,the belt is a really tight fit and it is easier if you have four hands,so get someone to help,there is no adjustment of the motor hope this helps,cliff,ps wear gloves because of sharp edges
