Maytag MDE25PN - Remove Dryer Door

4-12
Open dryer door.
Loosen but do not remove the second
screw down from the top of the door hinge.
 On model 22 dryers or dryers with
doors that do not open 180 degrees, the
hole for this screw is snowman shaped
which will allow the screw to pass through
it when lifting door off dryer. If door has
been reversed and hinge is mounted on
the left side of the dryer, then the hinge is
upside down and the snowman hole will
not support the door when the screw is
loosened.

Remove the remaining three star head
screws that secure the door hinge to the
dryer front panel.
After removing three and loosening one
screw, grasp the door and pull the hook of
the hinge out of the slot in front panel, then
lift door hinge off the remaining screw.
 These screws are tapered and
serrated like the hinge screws for the dryer
top, but they are larger than those for the
top hinges. Serrated head helps keep
screws tight without a lock washer.
