spin cycle not working?

if I run the washing machine every thing works but the spin cycle. and when it kicks on the that cycle it smells like the belt is burning. I am assuming it is thev belt, but I dont know exactly how to replace it. The schematics would be great. Also I would like to know if it is very difficult. I have knowledge.

If its like any washer i have had its simply a matter of loosening the motor so you can push it in to get some slack to remove the belt and then push it away with the new belt on to get some tension.Ahammer handle comes in handy to wedge against the motor to tension the belt while you tighten the motor again.Dont forget to unplug the washer first as there are is lot of wiring about round the motor.
