Please help...

I put a new drum in. But for some reason when I wrapped the belt around after putting it in, it's not tight. I see what it should be wrapped around (white plastic wheel, small metal golden wheel, etc) but it still has a lot of slack. Please help...wife is gonna kick me out if I don't get this fixed.

Thanks

The above should do it for you, take a look at page 23.
You may want to hold onto this for any problems in the future.

Happy holidays !!!

Thanks. Based on this, I am hooking the belt back up correctly....around the white wheel and the motor, correct?

But I still have a LOT of slack. When I put it all back together the drum didn't turn unless I lifted the belt up. I think I might have stretched the belt out when I took the old drum off...dang it.....

Ideas/thoughts?
