well, theres no wrong way to put the drum in, it can be reversed.....
it just rides on two rollers on the rear bulkhead.....and glides on the front....I guess it could lift some... but once you install the belt, pulling tension down on the drum, it should work as normal... getting the front shroud and surround on can be a bit tricky.... |

I should add, when i turn the drum by hand it rubs up against under the top panel. This is honestly the first time i've ever had an issue like this, I've managed to complete a Samsung, and a Whirlpool top lint trap dryer with ease. |

Take it apart again and see what needs correcting, I assume that you did not take out the screws on the back of the machine that hold the rear of the drum in place, if you did you may have to take the dryer apart from the front and reassemble the rear drum screws first to reassemble the dryer properly. |

Looking at the video more carefully it seems as if the drum doesn't get slid back all the way but instead rests on the rollers...I'll have to try that as well. |

I thought I knew the answer but didn't want to post until I was sure. I had to run an Atlantis version of this dryer through the shop this morning. (yes, I'm working on a Sunday when we're closed. Only 10 more hours to go!! Ah the life of a small bidness man) Anyway, the tub WILL move up and down when assembled. There is play there since it rides on rollers in the back and lower slides upfront and only held at the top by the felt. So, don't worry about some play.
