My first post. I replaced the motor but don’t see an idler pulley or tensioner to keep belt tight. Motor body rotates on it’s mount, assumably to change belt but no tensioner!

Hi Shingabiss,

On this model, the part you’re looking for is located on the motor. I’ve provided a picture to help you identify its location.

Mine doesn’t have an idler pulley, just a spring. See later response, but thank you!

Spring 1
Spring 1512×278 48.5 KB
that spring is what gives tension to the belt

Thanks. Do you know the PN of the clip?
