I just bought a Maytag - model M3X05F2A How do I remove the screen in front to clean it? I can pull it up a little but afraid to pull too hard in case I break it. Thank You, Martha J. Davis

I could not find that model number listed, but no matter. It sounds like your drain line is plugged with something and you need to clear the line. What has always worked best for me is a guitar string because it is flexible enough not to damage anything but rigid enough to work on cloggs.
1.Remove the lint screen, which usually is located in the front of a Maytag dryer. Gently pull it up and out, and remove the lint with your fingers. 2. Use hot water and wet both sides of the lint screen. Use a nylon scrubbing brush and a little bit of liquid dish soap or laundry detergent to scrub the screen clean of lint and fabric softener buildup. Rinse both sides thoroughly with hot water. Towel dry and replace the lint screen when dry. Maytag states that owners should do this every six months. 3.Clean the exhaust every two years, as recommended by Maytag. Whoever installed your dryer had to install the exhaust vent. Unplug your dyer and unscrew the vent from the back of the dryer. Use a vacuum attachment or your hands to remove any clogged lint and replace. You may need to do the same thing to the other end that is attached to the wall. 4.Clean the dryer cabinet. According to Maytag, a professional should remove lint from the dryer cabinet every two years. This may be a good time to have him clean out the vents as well, rather than doing it yourself, if preferred. 5.Clean your lint screen on a regular basis. Maytag states that you should clean the lint screen with your fingers before using the dryer each time. Be sure to replace it all the way so it can work properly.

Your unit is 515 Watts using 115V (line to ground.)
Maytag M3X05F2A
Specifications: • Volts 115 • EER 9.7 • Amps 5.0 • Watts 515 • Plug cap. amps 125/15 • Pints per hour 1.4 • Room air (CFM) 160 Room Size: • 10' x 15' • 150 sq. ft.
If you plan on using it in the Philippines the electrical power supply is 220V line to ground. You can use an Auto Voltage Regulator (AVR) which has an internal winding with a servo that moves a carbon brush across the winding. I would recommend that you use at least a 1500 Watt AVR as the longer you use it the hotter it will get. Hopefully you can find an AVR with 3 pronged outlets. I currently use 3 ea. SIEG models SVC-888-1000 VA (600 Watts) for most electronics and 1 SVC-888-1500VA on a small 11 Cu Ft. freezer. The Freezer is 626W but uses almost 700W during the defrost cycle. The AVR failed after 3 years due to overheating. (STINK!) I also have a 4th SEIG model SVC-888-3000VA on my 21 Cu Ft 115V Refrigerator. There are other AVR manufacturers here and the cost vary greatly by manufacturer. (P3300 - P6500 depending on model) I have has all of my AVRs in countinous service for almost 6 years.
Many thanks to the person who gave me the confidence to pull the screen up in front of my A/C, I pulled it hard and it came right up and out.
