Dryer drum just started to make a little noise and I can't figure out how to remove the front and top to find the problem. There are no screws on the front and I can't fid the clips that secure the top. How does this machine open up?!

take out the screws for the door hinge and the screws on the other side (just imagine if the hinges were on the other side of the door opening). the front should come off now and you will be able to see the other screws that have to come out...

Thanks for the help! On my old dryer the door and front panel came off together so I didn't think taking the door off would go anywhere. After removing the door and front panel I found the squeak in the idler pulley. A drop of tuffoil took care of it.
