Washing Machine Belt Indesit WIB111

misterbisto

My belt keeps slipping off, any ideas. Trying to do it myself rather than call an engineer out . I managed to get it on (really hard considering I'm a girlie, followed an expert on you tube) but a soon as I turn it (which seems really stiff!!) you can see it coming off....do I need to loosen a bolt somewhere or something. Looked on google but can't seem to find anything.... Please help.. Got 3 kids and considering the weather I need my washing machine in action.

Thanks

the motor should have an adjusting bolt/s.
undo these and the motor should swivel up and down. refit the belt. then tighten the bolts again.
the belt should have some play (slack) in it. say about 15mm.

I can get the belt on, it just won't stay on!!

Did you ever get this fixed?

I've joined today only because I'm having exactly the same problem with exactly the same machine and I can't figure it out either!!
