Maytag Dryer Performa

[PHEV_Prius]

Dryer is not working.  It doesn't rotate when the power is on.  Hot air coming out of the back. I think it might be a broken belt...or this model uses rollers??  When I try to rotate the drum it doesn't move smoothly.  I would like to take it apart but I can't find any service manuals for this particular model....Any ideas where to start...
Thanks in advance.

That dryer has slides on the front of the drum and wheels on the back.

remove the screws to this front glide mount next and inspect them glides

I did downloaded the PDF file and thanks for the pictures.  My dryer doesn't have the screws on the bottom...I did remove the top front screws...is there clips somewhere??  See attached pictures.

Use a putty knife to release the locking clips that hold down the top:

Then remove the screws holding the front to the cabinet and set the front out of you way.And proceed as mentioned above.
