How can I access the motor on Electrolux model 1521?

My son and daughter-in-law asked me to look at their Electrolux vaccum model 1521. The motor makes a lot of noise and it smells like something in burning. I have the vaccum on my workbench but am not sure how to gain access to the motor. Are the side rubber moldings hiding the screws that will give me access?
Thanks
