Default Changing a fan belt

I am a brand new owner of a 1970 vw camper van (1600cc) which I adore! But
unfortunately and just had my fan belt blow apart. How do I change it?

TIA!
Jenn

A very comprehensive tech help site.
Search "fan" or "belt"

The short answer though is you need a manual.

Thank you so much! I did get a Haynes when I purchased it but I think my
mechanic might have 'borrowed' it.
