The top of this dryer looks like it hinges up. I'm trying to install the belt and I only have a small access panel in the rear to get to the motor. Does anyone have experiece with this model? Please, any and all info could help. Thanks.

Yes the top is on hinges.

To lift the top you will need to slide a putty knife in the two front corners about two inches from the side.

If you look in you will see the clips.

Then lift the top.

On the inside you will find a screw in each corner.

Remove these and the front will come off.
