I find it easier to get at the three nuts, one under the carb and one on each side, by removing the carb. The five screws holding the powerhead are underneath and towards the rear. Removing the front and rear pans makes everything easier to get at to. Your motor will have an exhaust baffle installed to so it will need two of the 304598 base gaskets and the kill switch wires have sleeves on them which can be pulled back exposing the connectors.
