Hi,
The removal of the belt really isn't too difficult. There is an automatic belt tensioner that you simply (with a tool) need to move in a counterclockwise direction to loosen and remove the belt.
Take a look at pics 1 and 2. They show the location of the tensioner and how it is turned. The remaining pics are the directions for removal and replacement of the compressor. Now remember, the system may still have freon in it and should be vacuumed down before taking things apart.
Here is a link that explains how in general to replace a compressor. Use it as a guide, in addition to the ones below. It will help.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.
Take care,
