Hi again Dtfixitman, I've done quite an exhaustive search with the info you've given me, and it's been pretty fruitless! I've gone through our supplier programs, sent emails, even just blind Googled! I'm afraid I can't find any matches for you whatsoever, and I wouldn't want to recommend you a belt that you might have to return. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Hi Dtfixitman, I'm afraid I can't match the model number you've given me in our database of White Knight machines. Would it be possible to double check? For help, use our guide: http://www.espares.co.uk/findingmodelnumbers.aspx#a7
I used the instructions above by hectorden and got the belt fitted pretty quickly.
All I can add is that when I put it all back together there was a scraping noise where the fins at the back were rubbing against the metal back cover. The solutio was ultimately quite easy. You simply bend the fins back a bit. They are made of soft metal and bend back very easily. Mine had gone out of shape as I had tried to the propeller at the back off to get the belt on.
PS I was very unimpressed with eSpares over this. I ordered on Sunday and it wasnt even despatched till the following Thursday. Very poor indeed and completely unable to provide an explanation, just a "its sent now" response by email.

Not easy but with a bit of perseverance it can be done. I removed the top and back panel then eased the drum back from the door to be able to get the belt round the drum. Top tip when the belt is round the drum tape it in the centre with electrical tape to stop it moving around. I then turned the dryer upside down and removed the small inspection cover from the bottom and with a little bit of effort pulled the belt over the drive pulley. Put all the screws back in removed the electrical tape and job done.
Your basket is empty.
