Can you guys help me with removing my mower deck and belt. I have downloaded the manual and still need some help. I see the lift rod and have unlocked the mechanism under the frame. I need help with the belt tensi9n pulley and belt removal. Here are photos of what I'm working with. Thanks

You have to get the belt off first.  Loosen the bolt in the blue circle then turn the yellow circle nut clock wise .  Pull the hair pin from the PTO Lever get it out of the way and roll the belt off the PTO.  It is all in the manual
