its a verry easy job did it myself last weekend, remove the plastic cover (2 bolts) look at the pump u will see 2 long bolts thay are the tensioners and one small one tucked over the back loosen those and slide the pump upwards, remove the old pump belt replace with new one and lever the pump down as u retension the bolts the belt should have 5 - 7mm movment, replace plastic cover, smile at a job well done...

if you like i can scan the page from the hayes manual?

easier way to do it is just remove the plastic cover and then undo the nut holding the main pully into the tappet cover and remove the pulley then replace the belt put the pulley back on and tighten the bolt up thats how i did mine
