4. Instalare (Configurare)

The following are general steps for replacing a washing machine drum pulley. Specific procedures may vary by appliance model. It is highly recommended to consult your appliance's service manual or a qualified technician.

1. Preparare: Ensure the washing machine is disconnected from power and water supply. Move the appliance to an area with sufficient space for access.
2. Access the Pulley: Depending on the model, you may need to remove the back panel, top panel, or other components to gain access to the drum pulley.
3. Scoateți cureaua de transmisie: Carefully remove the drive belt that connects the motor pulley to the drum pulley. Note its orientation for reinstallation.
4. Scoateți scripetele vechi: The pulley is typically secured to the drum shaft with a bolt or nut. Use appropriate tools to loosen and remove the fastener, then carefully slide the old pulley off the shaft.
5. Inspect the Shaft: Check the drum shaft for any damage or wear. Clean any debris from the shaft.
6. Instalați noua scripetă: Slide the new CANDY Plastic Drum Pulley 41024467 onto the drum shaft, ensuring it seats correctly. Secure it with the original fastener, tightening it to the manufacturer's specifications.
7. Reinstall the Drive Belt: Carefully place the drive belt back onto both the motor pulley and the new drum pulley. Ensure it is properly tensioned and aligned.
8. Reasamblați aparatul: Reatașați orice panouri sau componente care au fost îndepărtate.
9. Test: Reconnect power and water. Run a short test cycle to ensure the drum rotates smoothly and without unusual noise. Check for any leaks.

5. Function (Operating Principle)

The drum pulley is a passive component that facilitates the mechanical operation of the washing machine drum. It does not have user-operable controls. Its primary function is to:

• Putere de transmisie: The drive belt connects the motor's smaller pulley to the larger drum pulley. As the motor rotates, the belt transfers this rotational energy to the drum pulley, causing the washing machine drum to spin.
• Speed Reduction/Torque Increase: The size difference between the motor pulley and the drum pulley helps to reduce the rotational speed and increase the torque applied to the drum, which is necessary for effectively washing and spinning clothes.

A properly functioning drum pulley ensures smooth and efficient rotation of the washing machine drum.

6. Întreținere

Regular maintenance of the drum pulley is not typically required, as it is a durable component. However, periodic inspection can help identify potential issues early:

• Inspecție vizuală: During other appliance maintenance (e.g., cleaning the filter), visually inspect the pulley and drive belt for signs of wear, cracks, or damage.
• Tensiunea curelei: Ensure the drive belt has appropriate tension. A loose belt can slip, while an overly tight belt can put undue stress on the pulley and motor bearings.
• Curăţenie: Keep the area around the pulley free from lint, debris, or foreign objects that could interfere with its operation.

7. Depanare

If your washing machine exhibits symptoms related to drum rotation, the drum pulley or drive belt might be involved. Common issues include:

• Tamburul nu se învârte: If the drum does not spin during wash or spin cycles, the drive belt may be broken, slipped off, or the pulley itself might be damaged.
• Zgomote puternice: Unusual grinding, squealing, or thumping noises during operation could indicate a worn or damaged pulley, a loose or worn drive belt, or issues with the drum bearings.
• Miros de ars: A burning smell can occur if the drive belt is slipping excessively on the pulley due to incorrect tension or a seized pulley.
• Ineffective Spinning: If clothes are still very wet after a spin cycle, the drum may not be reaching adequate spin speeds, potentially due to a slipping belt or a faulty pulley.

If you encounter these issues, it is recommended to have the appliance inspected by a qualified technician.
