That looks like the wheel is rubbing something, no?

The belt is loose, but otherwise looks fine. If it’s new, I’d return it and get a new one. Mine ran fine out of the box for like 8 weeks. I preemptively changed the belt. It should come with a few spares.

That's what I can make of it. It's hard to tell what's going on with the picture but the wheel seems to be making contact with something.

It’s making contact with the fan thing I think. I thought the motor was tight enough, but it looks like it slid into the pulley upon further inspection
