How to change belt on a LG 7.5 kg tumble dryer.

SOURCE: how to fit a belt on a tumble dryer

unplug the dryer,
220v is not fun
dryers are generic inside, regardless of maker
while you got it apart to replace the belt is a good time to clean out exhaust vent pipes and the squirrel cage fan, no lint, better air flow, less $$ to run
the tensioner may push Up on the lower run.

• open case, most front panels are removed including door, remember to disconnect door switch wires, set panel aside
• pull drum out
• check drum support rollers
• check drum felts, bushes guides
• locate tensioner pulley, belts have been known to pull them out of the mounting when it breaks, check , reinstall if out
• pick up broken belt off floor of case
• take belt to parts store and match it, despite the huge number of dryer models there are very few belts.
• If any felts or rollers are worn,stuck,damaged take them too to the parts store, and replace in pairs, despite the huge number of dryer models there are very few rollers or felts
• after ensuring rollers anf felts and bearings are serviceable, loop new belt around drum at the wear mark from prior installation, reinsert drum
• loop new belt around motor pulley.
• pull tensioner pulley against spring to end of motion
• loop belt around tensioner pulley
• allow tensioner to slowly move back by spring tension till the belt is taut

I am not familiar with this particular dryer, but all electric dryers are designed so that the consumer can replace the belt. Open the access door ( the back, the top, or the removable panel at the bottom front) and the belt should be visible; a few minutes of study will show you what you need to do to change it.

Hi welcome to Fixya

You must pop off the top of the dryer then remove the front after the front is off you can remove drum .
The belt goes around the drum and the motor pully and under the tentioner wheel after you get belt on replace front and top.

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO UNPLUG FROM POWER THIS IS 220volts AND CAN HURT YOU BAD

Thank You For Useing Fixya
