Use your phillips head screwdriver to remove the three screws (8mm phillips head) holding the motor in place.
Keep in mind that there is some pressure on the motor, since the belt holds together the motor and turntable.

Step 5

Unbolt (6mm bolt) the turntable from the housing using your wrench.
Since the turntable is designed to rotate, make sure the other side of the pin is kept from rotating while unbolting.
