Sounds like a belt need tightening or replaced. If you can get to it easily, you might try rubbing bar soap on the belt. There is also a spray used on auto belts to stop squeaking.
I don't know but fair warning...mine did that and then got worse and worse. Get it fixed somehow cuz that squeal gets so annoying!
I agree with Ljgordon. The belt more likely needs to be replaced. Soap and belt dressing would only be a bandaid. Check out repairclinic.com on how to do it. All you need is the brand and model number. Lots of diagrams, videos, and you can purchase what you need from them. They are my go to.
