Check to make sure all pulleys are straight and not warped. Then check idler. There is not sufficient tension to engage the belt to the pulley and that causes the slip. As for jumping off it could be a warped pulley.

I had the same problem. Get in touch with Jerry @ EC and make sure you have the correct belt. Depending on wear tensioner is probably a good idea anyway.
