I assume its similar to the 610.

Remove the seat.

Remove the tin cover the seat fastens to.

Remove the cables from your battery.

You may need to loosen & move the bracket your alternator is on.

The driven shaft is a split shaft connected together by a split steel block. I dont remember if they are 1/2", or 7"16 nuts & bolts.

You have to remove these bolts,split the block to slip belt into place. Some kind of small wood block to spread driven sheaves will be helpful here. Its not very comfortable working upside down, but thats kind of how it is.

Remove round cover behind left rear wheel

Remove hydraulic hose from drive sheave assly

The outer half of the engine drive sheave needs to come off as well. Should be 2 snap rings here, one small, one larger. Seems to me the rest should be fairly obvious when you get this far.

Again, assuming that its similar to the 610, its a good idea to check the pins & bushings on your front sheaves. When the belts are run narrow, they can badly wear those. Thats a bigger job.
