Install by wiggling the belt back behind the drive wheel until you can slip it on the wheel. pull tensioner pulley out of the way to get the belt on the top pulley. Tighten the nut to secure the drive wheel. Reconnect the machine at the bottom of the auger housing and replace the auger belt, tensioner, and belt guide. Complete by replacing the upper bolts that hold the two parts together. I have not replaced the friction wheel as of yet. My process took 30 - 45 minutes for both belts.
