No where
Masport print no manuals apart from IPL's and they are not made available to the public .
I probably have done one but cant place it right now .
From memory they put a full cover on so the blade carrier has to come off then the rear axel is rolled forward and the belt slipped over the tranny pulley then off the engine pulley.

Looks like I was wrong on this one
The manual is called "Masport Rotary Mowers Servicing Manual " and some very nice person has uploaded to Manuals library .
A little more complicated than I was remembering but basically the same.
'Heed the warning about draining the oil & fuel before you start
I tip all push mower on the catcher flap to avoid these problems
So take the guard off the the transmission then sit the mower on a crate with the handle bars on the ground held down with a brick or similar .
