How do I get the drum bearing race out of my AEG Lavamat 72620 washing mac?

Noisy bearing & browm rusty water coming from behind the . drum. I think the bearing seal has failed. How do I get the drum off & the bearing replaced?

Next stage of Aeg 1260

The spider was a real pain to get off I must have a spent a good hour wiggling and pulling and bashing but got it off to reveal a very broken inner bearing and seal. Most of the bearing pushed out and the outer race had to be bashed out from spider. Outer bearing was fine but will replace it anyway. The hard part was still to come, finding replacements. AEG genuine spares wanted £170 (help!) because they only sell new bearings with the spider, why? So went online and eventually found correct codes from E-nr number (this is number on sticker inside door) at www.sparesrus.biz. Hope they fit......will find out tomorrow as I paid extra for next day delivery. To be concluded hopefully..........

I have a AEG Oko lavamat 1260 Turbo and the drum sounds very noisy. Will order bearing kit Monday and have a go at the repair. Good Luck!
