I had a 41 160 for about 5 years. The accessibility on most things under the hood of 41s is near non existent. To replace the belt, I finally put a little soap or some such on the belt and on the frame member right by the pulley. I took a long stick (actually it was a wooden stake that Owen has to keep his tomatoes up, this operation was performed on the street in front of his house) and pushed it through the too narrow gap. Looping it around the pulleys and adjusting it was pretty easy after that
