Maybe I missed seeing the brand of the machine. Many Maytag models can be
opened by simply removing the two screws located low on the front panel. This
opens the machine adequate for doing most repairs to the drying mechanism.

As Dale said, removing the back is a waste of time. I would start with the
top. It should snap free from the front and hinge towards the back. Hopefully
you can rotate the drum by hand untill you can reach the pin. If you are unable
to do this then removing the front and pulling the drum out is called for. This
will involve removing the belt and re stringing it when reinstalling. Hope you
you can get it from the top.

Hi All,
I am looking for some tips on taking the dryer apart. I have a bobby pin
stuck in the drum that is grinding into the drum. Can I just unscrew all
the screws and get the back panel off and possible access the pin or will I
need to take the top off. Thanks, Bob
