You can also tighten the front band to hold the drum to keep the guts in place, check hardware stores for as long as you can find 3/8-16 bolts (8” length shown) some washers, and use two of the biggest sockets you have (1-1/4” impact shown) and assemble as shown.

Rapid hammering and the cover will pop out.
