Product Description

The Magic Chef 801010020003 Whole Belt Tensioner Assembly is a mechanical component that ensures that the drive cord is properly tightened. It is used to keep the belt secure and straight as it delivers power from the motor to the drum or agitator. The assembly works by having a spring-loaded or adjustable mechanism that corrects the stretch of the belts and minimizes the slippage when the system is in use. It is installed in the belt pathway within the appliance cabinet, which is connected to the motor, and the driven pulley.
