MAX II belt replacement

[hipowerone]

This is probably a dead horse, but....

Back in 2016, after I got my MAX II, I had power issues, and after a few posts, I thought that I might have to replace my belt, but I found that by adjusting my belt, as it was not badly worn, I was able to get better power.

However, now, several years later, I find my belt is 1 1/16" or less and is due for replacement. I looked back at previous posts, and at one time Mike told me that there was info in the user manual on how to replace the belt. After having found that link again, and re-reading it and the user manual, I only see information on how to adjust belt tension.

I then found a link to an older post by Mike on MAX II engine replacement, including photos.

I have looked at my machine, and this is what I think needs to be done. Correct me if I am wrong.

1) loosen two nuts on the anti-flex mount bracket
2) loosen and remove the 4 engine mount bolts.
3) it appears that I will have to also loosen and remove the 4 exhaust manifold nuts/bolts and totally disconnect the exhaust.
4) lift engine off the mounts and move forward and to the side to allow belt removal.

It appears the reverse is done after installation, then adjust belt tension, and tighten engine mount bolts and anti-flex mount nuts.

And on a related note, to what value should engine mount bolts and manifold bolts/nuts be torqued, if known.

Now I am really looking forward to doing this task! I can imagine with a new belt, my MAX II will have new life!

I have plenty of time, and I am in no rush, so I will wait for some confirmation, before proceeding further.
Thanks to everyone in advance. This forum is truly a knuckle saver.
