turn off the water supply tap;
disconnect the SMA from the water supply and sewerage;
remove the top cover of the case (on some models you can skip this step);
dismantle the back wall of the machine;
remove a torn or stretched belt;
pull the strap first onto the engine pulley, then onto the “drum wheel”;
rotate the drum pulley with your hands, make sure that the rubber band “sits” in all the grooves;

Thus, you need to order and buy a new belt for your SMA taking into account: the model of the machine, the markings on the elastic band itself, the material from which the strap is made. Taking into account all this data, you will not go wrong when selecting components.
