In a belt driven dryer, the pulley guides the drive belt and keeps it under tension so the motor can turn the drum. Our stock record lists it simply as a pulley kit, without the dryer models or the exact contents. Please match 479889P on your dryer's parts diagram, or send us the model and serial number from the dryer's rating label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDryer squealing or drum not turning\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost tumble dryers turn the drum with a long belt running from the motor, with a spring loaded pulley holding that belt tight. The pulley wheel spins fast for hours, so its bearing or bush eventually wears. Early signs are a squeal, squeak or rhythmic thump while the dryer runs. Later the wheel can wobble or seize, which may burn or snap the belt. If you hear the motor running but the drum doesn't turn, or the drum stops when loaded, check the belt and pulley together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel part 479889P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePulley kit for Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel dryers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKit contents and dryer models not on record\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspect the drum belt at the same time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging a dryer pulley\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the dryer and let it cool if it has just been used. Clean out lint while the cabinet is open, as build-up around the motor and pulley is a fire risk. Photograph how the belt wraps around the pulley and motor shaft before you remove it. After fitting, turn the drum by hand to check the belt tracks straight, then run the dryer empty and listen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I replace the belt as well?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the old belt is glazed, cracked, frayed or stretched, it's worth replacing it at the same time, since a worn belt can slip on a new pulley. The kit contents aren't on our records, so order the belt for your model separately if you need one.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fisher \u0026 Paykel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551239237710,"sku":"479889P","price":26.81,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/479889p-genuine-fisher-and-paykel-dryer-pulley-kit","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
