Ok - I managed to fit a bit of time in, found a loose engine mount and tightened, got the mower on it's side and established a draft plan of action:

1. Sharpen blades
2. Put mower back on wheels and lower cutting deck onto some timber supports
3. Remove the (5?) split pins and release the cutting deck (have to in order to remove belts)
4. Remove belts (? may have to remove some guards around the pulley wheels?)
5. Take belts to places that may have replacements ones - truck/bearing shops in mind
6. Replace belts
7. Re-connect the cutting deck and replace split pins
