Drum Drive Belt

1. Remove the lid. See Section 5.1.

2. Open the front panel; see Section 5.2 or 5.3.

3. Remove the rear panel of the drum. See Section 5.7.

4. Remove the heater bank cover; see Section 5.8, Step 2.

5. Lift upward on the drum so that a small gap exists between the edge of the

drum and the heater duct (refer to Figure 5-15).

Figure 5-15: Positioning the Drum to Form a Gap

6. Route the belt through the gap and onto the drum.

7. From the top of the appliance, ensure that the drum belt is positioned and

aligned correctly.

8. Access the rear of the fan motor through the space below the drum. Lift

upward on the fan motor tensioning pulley and place the drive belt onto the

pulley. The tensioning pulley should be holding the drum belt in position.

9. Ensure that the drum belt is aligned between the motor and the drum.

10. Hand-spin the drum slowly (this allows any minor alignment discrepancies to

be corrected).

Service tip:

Due to the limited space beneath the drum, access to the rear area of the

fan motor is via the space along the inner section of the right side panel

(above the fan motor housing).

Note:

Belt installation can be simplified by using the Miele "installation lever"

(part no. 05057330).
