You should have no play in the rollers. The motor is tripping on the overload protector, once it is tripped it has tp cool before it will start again. If everything is checking out ok, then it looks like the motor may need replacing, but find out where the rubbing is coming from.

No, don't take the back off, you need to remove the belt, and pull the drum out

That clip goes on the shaft that the wheel is attached to to keep it from falling of the shaft
