Timing Belt Replacement V70XC need manual V70-XC70 2001

Folks,
I have changed the 240 timimng belt numerous times but now I have a V70XC and I hear that the timing belt is a little tricky. I tried to get the manual from Volvo but they do said that they do not make shop manuals anymore - you can go online for 3 days for $50-
Does anyone have a lead for a good shop manual that shows how to do the timing belt job? Does anyone know the tricks for this timing belt replacement?

Thanks so much

Jerry

Timing Belt Replacement V70XC need manual V70-XC70 2001

IPD has a nifty tool or two to hold the cams and also to help manipulate the accessory belt tensioner as well as a DVD explaining more than you need. I thought the job was easier than a 240, so much so, I bought an S70 to go with the 850. I slipped the belt over the crank pulley no problem. Careful inspecting the tensioner seals and in compressing it is about the only challenge. That and extracting the pin from the tensioner.
