either its not tight enough, or the bearings are going in one of the
accessories/pullies.
If the sound goes away emidiately after spaying the belts while running, then
its
not tight enough or really glazed, but since its new, I assume its not glazed.
Otherwise, get a stethiscope and check your accessories for noise level.
I would never suggest putting any of that stuff on belts. If it squeaks,
there's
something wrong. Putting junk on your belts is like using duct tape to fix a
leaking radiator hose. Its beyond counter productive.
