The bearings and seals are contained in a tube through the centre of the drum. You need rear access to remove the pulley and the front of the machine will come off as well, allowing you to get at the front of the tub.
“the front of the machine will come off as well, allowing you to get at the front of the tub.”
How do I remove the front for access ?, will rmoving teh clips around teh front part of the outer drum allow me to remove the inner drum and get access to the bearings ?
However – remove the kick board, you will find 3 screws. Consider that the door seal is attached to the front panel, so it will have to be released, as will the door lock.
