how do I change my altanator belt on my ford mondeo1.8lxtd?

i want to change the altenator belt how do i do this

Its relatively easy. Start by jacking the o/s/f up and removing the wheel then remove the lower engine guard 3 or 4 10ml bolts. You will then see the altenator and adjusting bracket loosen the allen key in the centre of the idler once loosened you can the undo the 10ml adusting bolt which releases the tension on the belt. Replacing is reverse of the above
