Installation Notes:

• Tools Needed: Phillips screwdriver, snap ring pliers, flathead screwdriver, work gloves.

• Safety First: Unplug the dryer from the power source and, for gas dryers, shut off the gas valve before installation.

• Handle with Care: Inspect the idler arm shaft for wear; lubricate with powdered graphite or light machine oil for smoother operation.

• Installation Steps: Access the idler pulley by removing the dryer’s front panel and drum (consult your model’s manual for specific screws). Remove the old pulley by releasing the snap ring, washer, and belt. Clean the idler arm shaft, then install the new pulley with existing or new washer, pulley, second washer, and snap ring. Rethread the belt around the pulley and motor pulley (check your model’s belt routing diagram). Reassemble in reverse order. Note: Snap ring pliers are recommended for easy removal and installation. If the idler arm is worn, consider replacing the entire assembly.
