Those are the drum baffles and the top cover needs to be lifted to the rear of the dryer to access the
outside of the drum, but you have to remove the front panel first. Disconnect
power to the dryer prior to servicing to avoid the risk of electric
shock.
Open the dryer door and remove the four screws located
vertically along the
inside lip of the door opening. These screws hold the front panel to
the front shroud assembly. Once the four screws are removed,
grasp and press in on the upper edges of the front panel posts then
twist it inward to release the clips holding it to the cabinet. Tilt the
top of the front panel and move it away from the dryer.
The
top cover is held on each side of the cabinet by two hold down
brackets. Locate and remove the 5/16" hex-head screws holding each
bracket then swing the bracket to the outside and unhook it
from the
slot in the top cover lip.
Open the door then lift the front of the
top cover and tilt it toward the rear of the dryer. Reinstall
the top cover and the front panel by following the removal steps in
reverse order.
