Separating the unit:

Place the unit face down.  You will see 6 brass Phillips head screws through the plastic housing.  You will need to remove 5 of these.  The screw on the top left side, one down from the corner, does not need to be removed.  Just remove the 5 screws on the corners.

You can now very gently lift the plastic housing upwards and then towards the bottom to get around the motor.

Now you have successfully separated the unit, you can see the main drive belt.  Take note on how this belt is routed.  Look under the motor mount and you will see a white plastic spindle and a stainless steel spindle.  The belt goes around the right side of both spindles, over the big wheel on the right, and under the big wheel on the left.  (see diagram)
