Default My timing belt keeps slipping from pulley.

I am new to the forum. I was replacing the timing belt and when I start the engine the belt slips from the Camshaft pulley so I turn the engine off right away. I recheck the all of the installation procedures and it looks like they are all correct. Happens every time I start it up Has anybody had this problem and if so how do you fix it.
Suzuki side kick 94 Engine 1.6 V8
Thanks for your help!

That's strange. First, was everything OK before you put on the new belt? Check the camshaft pulley to see that it's really tight and snug on the shaft. Check your crankshaft pulley for the same thing. Does your idler look like it's fitting flush across the belt, or more on one side or the other? Tracka

I already fix the problem I flip the belt and I l an not sure if this is the solution but finally I get it working fine, probably the rotation of the belt is directional thanks for the fast replay
