How do I get the belt on my flymo 330 compact to stop slipping off?

The belt keeps slipping off the pulley! Ihave replaced it with a new belt but the same thing keeps happening. Lawnmower is only 1 1/2 years old. Any ideas welcome!

If you look at the experiences most people have with this mower you'll probably decide to just take it to the dump, and get a decent one to replace it. I've put three replacement belts on our 330, and they don't stay on for more than one mowing session on a small lawn. This machine has caused a LOT of domestic strife as well as being hopeless for the task it's supposed be designed for - sorry to be the bearer of bad news... I will do a lot more research before buying another mower...
