Re: felt bearing beko drcs 68w dryer

BACK OFF, DRUM OUT AND DEAD EASY TO GET TO, JUST DOUBLE SIDED ON ( HOWEVER ). Beko have now changed the design due to this fault, when you change the felt, it will last a week or so then come off again, jams the drum and snaps the belt. This is the major cause of snapped belts and we are doing about 10 full rebuilds under 1st year a week for Beko and they are a ball ache. The design change entails fitting a whole redesigned front duct and bearing assembly and redesigned drum, they are not interchangable. :rolls:
If you just want the part number for the stick on cloth bearing its 2961080100

thanks for that very interesting, belt not snapped yet but seems a big job to modify all the bits on such a cheap machine!

I just got a call for a snapped belt on a DRCS76W. Its only a few weeks out of warranty, does it need one of these mod kits also? should I go at it or should i get them to chance their arm with beko?

A little tip that sorted one of these that kept braking up the front felt added some baby powder to front felt , also used chalk powder that was 15 years old from the good old hoover tumble dryer days .

Hi,
I have one of these that I have to replaced the front felt seal. What will putting chalk powder on the seal do?, wonder if I should do this on my one?
