Hellos,

I need to replace a worn pan belt on a iMove 5S moving head. Do I remove the yokes via the base unit or go in from the top?

Page 17 of the manual walks you through the steps to change the pan belt. You get a diagram as well, but here is the text.

Turn off the main power.
Unscrew all the screws (A) and open the base-housing cover (B).
Unplug all the connect wires (C) that from the arm to PC board and ignitor. Unscrew the screws (D) that fix the axis gear (E).
Change a new belt (F) by going through all connect wires that from the arm to base, and through the bridge for correct position.
Set up the gear axis to the bridge and screwed it. Note : do not press the belt.
Put the belt around the axis gear and motor gear.
Plug all the connect wires (C) that form the arm to PC board and ignitor.
Adjust the pan home position.
Screw the base-housing cover (B).
