Mend White Knight 767c Tumble Dryer Motor Repair

How can I fix My White Knight 767c Tumble drier?

The motor on my White Knight 767c Tumble drier has become excessively noisy. I cannot seem to get at the motor. I have removed all screws necessary, But don't seem to be able to remove the ?impeller? to remove the back plate from the carcase. I get that the centre bolt on the impeller has an opposite thread? but can't seem to remove the blighter. I have found the three screws which support the drum, I know I will have to remove them to remove the back, Oh yes and I have disconnected the power :-) Can anyone help please?

Many thanks for your input. Brute Force and ignorance on my part prevailed and fan was removed. Problem was a missing key lock, which prevented the fan being tightened. once replaced by local trades man the fan was tightened and "silent running" resumed.
Thanks.
Fan was removed by holding the drum, using two screwdrivers to behind the fan to lock it. enabling the retaining bolt to be removed. the missing keyway was cleaned and replaced and the fan replaced and tightened.

the plastic fans seize onto the motor shaft and have to be prised of using something as a lever.you must put equal amounts of pressure on each side of the fan as you lever else the motor shaft will bend and be out of true.sometimes the only way to remove the fan is to break it off.pain in the bum!!!.the fan has to come off to remove the rear panel and there is no way round it!
