I'll have to disagree with that. You need to use moderately light weights until you can make sure you have the form down. But if you want to build a stable core you don't need an artificial stabilizer doing it for you. Belts are good when reach a certain point or when you are going for PR's but IMO they will detrain your core stabilizers when overused making you more prone to injury without the belt. You're not a pro powerlifter.
There is an article on deadlift in the Training Articles section you can read.
