On my 64 hr MX6000 the alternator belt just came off. Not sure why, but it did. What a royal pain in the butt to get back on. I loosened the alternator, but it didnt give me enough slack to get it on no matter how I tried. I finally got it wedged on and bumped the starter to jump it on. With the alernator completely loose, the belt is almost tight.

Any tips or special secrets? My belt was a bit chewed up, so i am probably going to get another one as a spare. Going to call the dealer tomorrow. Thanks!
