Drum makes rattle noise on start up and wobbles during spinging. Belt looks good upon inspection. Could the from and rear drum gaskets and/or right rear guide wheel be worn? If so what is procedure for replacement? Bob Kelleher

Look through the rear hole(after removing the rear panel) and PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE BELT ROUTING!!! Remove the belt and remove the DRUM.:)
