UNPLUG DRYER!___Take the door off- 4 screws- 2 in hinges- 2 in opposite side.
Take the front plate off- 4 screws
Take the lint screen housing out, 2 screws- either side under screen.
The top has to fold back- make sure the top two screws holding the L-brackets are out.
The drum will pull out from the back. It only has to come forward a few inches to remove and replace the belt. Put the new belt ribs down (Maytag p/n 33002535) around the drum. Make sure the belt hangs below to left of drum.
Put the drum back in rear support and replace the front support.. Reaching under the drum wrap the belt around the motor pinion and to the right under the tension idler. Make sure the belt ribs are the same direction all the way around their circuit- then you can replace the rest of the parts.
