I need to change the belts, and I don't know how to get the cover off to expose the belts so that I can change them. Have any ideas?

Thank you,

I figured it out.
What I did was to fully un-screw the clutch knob and when I did that the hand wheel pulled off. This allowed me to take the metal plate off to expose the belts. I guess I was just in too much of a hurry.

Thanks so much,

Hello Brenda,
You should be able to take the end off the machine to get to the belts, so many manufacturers made models for Kenmore I can't picture your machine at the moment, on some models you had to take the balance wheel off to get the belt off, if it is possible for you to e-mail me some pictures below I will be able to help you further.
