Help needed for Simpson clothes dryer

[p38arover]

I had to replace a kevlar bearing in our Simpson MaxiDry 1200s clothes dryer but I forgot about the belt tensioner when I removed the drive belt.

As a result, I forgot to sketch how the belt tensioner is fitted and, in particular, to where the tensioning spring connects before it all fell in a heap in the bottom of the dryer..

I really do hope there is an appliance tech on this site and who could send me a sketch or provide a link to an appropriate page.

Regards,

Ron

There are a bunch of diagrams here -

- one of them may apply to your Simpson.

I expected to find a diagram for a Discovery Serpentine belt routing in those.

Thanks, chaps. A reply on the OL forum pointed me in the right direction - it was where to connect the tension spring that had me baffled.

I'll check when I get home from work.
