Removing power steering belt on W126?

I have to drive my 85' to the shop tomorrow to have the PS leak checked out, but I will have to do so with the PS belt removed, because of the massive leak... no fluid in the pump and I do not want to burn the pump out. The shop is only about 4 miles away and is mostly all straight 4-lane highway.

So, can anyone tell me the procedures of removing the belt, without me having to cut it? Which I will do if I am forced.

BTW- my regular shop said they would not even "touch" a steering system on a Mercedes.... my gosh.

Now I have to take it to another guy that mostly works on Volvos and BMWs. Hopefully he will know what is going on here.


Thanks
