there should be %26quot;bolts%26quot; holding it on to a bracket, no %26quot;screws%26quot;
The other poster has given great instructions. But he didn't mention that your belt has tensioner on it that needs to be release to release the belt.
LOOK AT THE NEW ONE IT WILL SHOW YOU IF THERE OR ANY MORE BOLTS
