How do I seperate a Zanussi FJS1197W washing machine?

I need to replace the bearing on a Zanussi FJS1197W washing machine drum. As there is no back panel to remove to get at the drum I presume the entire case seperates in half as there are seems on the left and right hand sides. If anyone has ever seperated this machine before could you please advise me of the easiest way to do the job. thanks in advance.
