Beko DPU8360 W pulley belt help

[traineelectrician]

Hi
Wondering if someone knows how to replace the pulley belt on this tumble dryer????
I've took the sides off and took the drive belt off the motor also taken the fan off the spindle but I can't see how I can get the motor out to put the new pulley belt on.
Anyone have any ideas?

Removing the motor wont help you release the belt from over the drum, from what I can see.....can the front of the drier be released to allow this?

No it's not the belt that goes around the drum it's the small pulley belt I can't get off. The spindle from the motor goes straight through the back end so from what I can figure I've got to either take the whole back end off or try and get the motor out to slide the new small pulley belt over the spindle.....
Thanks
I've uploaded another pic. The small belt is split and slips off.

Ah, I see the one.....what happens if you release that tensioning spring - can the motor then hinge upwards (drum belt off?)

Yep unhinge the spring and the drum belt comes off but pulley belt still remains on until it is taken off the motor spindle which goes through the plastic casing to the rear of the dryer.

Thanks
