Toiler disposed to belie his nature (6)

I believe the answer is:

loiter

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'belie his nature' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun but the answer is not.

'toiler disposed' is the wordplay.
'disposed' is an anagram indicator.
'toiler' is an anagram of 'LOITER'.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
