A worn belt stretches, glazes and starts to slip, while an old one can crack across its ribs and finally snap. Typical signs are a dryer that hums or runs with the drum standing still, a squeal or slapping noise as it starts, a burning rubber smell, or clothes that come out damp and bunched in one spot. If the drum spins far more freely by hand than it used to, a broken belt is the likely cause.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Simpson part 4055576997\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBelt size 770J3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross reference 0198001021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits Simpson Minimax dryers in the 39S, 39P, 39B and 39D ranges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBelt size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e770J3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing the dryer belt\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the dryer first. Before removing anything, photograph how the old belt runs around the motor pulley and any tensioner, as the new belt must follow the same path. While the drum is exposed, clear out lint build up around the motor and check the drum supports for wear. Turn the drum by hand a few times to seat the belt, then do a short test run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow often do dryer belts need replacing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is no fixed interval.
