Hia thanks for your advice the drum is still jamming and making a noise when I move it by hand. its hard see much through the holes but I have got some ffedback from the moving of the drum and I am guessing something is stuck in between the bearings at the front of the drum. Can you advise how to remove the rubber ring and check the bearings? Frustrating feel like just buying a new one. seems a waste if its an easy fix though. Thanks in advance for your help
