I just did this on my '67 as I had to replace the alternator/water pump belt and pretty sure it's the same set-up on the later 108s- it's a bit of a pain in the arse but slacken the bolt on the rear (14mm), and the 2 on the front (17mm)- they just need slight slackening- then use the 10mm tensioner bolt/nut sticking out the side of the pump towards the fender to gain the slack. You should then be able to gain enough slack to lever the pump and get the belt off. You may want to turn the pump pulley to help get the belt off and the new one on. The manual states to use the 10mm tensioner to set the belt tension then tighten the bigger bolts once that's done.
