I tried pulling or releasing the Spanner , but it does not change the sound. I greased the rear drum bearing. Hope that you can help me out with this problem

Given your info I think your noise may be coming from the tension idler, so check it out. If that is not the problem your rear changing out the rear bearing may solve it. Good luck, hope this helps.
