This instruction works for most any dryer--- it should for yours too:
1) The big trick for a dryer belt is getting it around the drum... the rest is easy. You'll either take the top off and work with the drum to ease the belt around the drum- the front of the drum simply rests on slides/rollers depending on the model
You may need to remove some piece from the front to make this happen too-
2) re-fit the belt then by first taking the inspection cover off (or the whole back of the unit) and working the belt to the back of the drum, near to the pulley and the motor...
3) then, work to unload the spring, place the belt around the pulleys (it should be pretty obvious how to do this) and then release the spring mechanism--- this will tighten the belt between the drum and the drive pulleys.
Good luck!!!

What belt comes with whirlpool kit # 4392067?

If you have a whirlpool dryer with the lint filter that comes out of the top cover you would need belt #341241, Whirlpool Dryer Drive Belt 341241
That kit looks like a front-lint package...probably contains a #66157 belt. Whirlpool Dryer Drive Belt 661570V

Was drying cloth and just stop working, the element comes on but no running of drum

Most electric dryers are 220V and are essentially 2 -110V circuits.. You should have either 2 circuit breakers or two fuses supplying the power to the dryer . One is probably tripped or blown. Either reset the breaker or replace the defective fuse and you should be in bussiness!

Please, can you tell me how to tighten the belt on an Inglis dryer model J073500

Sorry for the troubles but you cant tighten the belts on those or any dryer for that matter. Here is the problem your belt is worn out and that's why it is loose and if you have replaced it and its loose you are installing the belt incorrectly around the idler pulley or have the wrong belt or your idler pulley is worn out. I hope this helps solve the issue your having and for instructions on installing the belt go to youtube and type in whirlpool dryer drum belt installation they will show you the correct way to do it and whirlpool builds your model dryer.

Install a dryer belt

depends on the brand. always post brand and model #.
if it is a whirlpool or kenmore the idler pulley will be laying in the bottom of dryer. the belt should have come with instructions as to how to loop it around motor pulley and Idler.
