Urgent AC belt removal on K jet

Folks-

I just got around to replacing some belts in my '81 245 with K jet , it has a York AC comp that seems bolted to the body with no way of adjusting tension.
I did some digging and it seems that the belt was tensioned via 10mm nuts on the crankshaft pulley. Not sure how that works, but Ioosened all those 10mms and the tension hasn't decreased.
Am I missing something? I don't want to pull the whole pulley off and not be able to get a belt back on.

And of course I can't replace my Alt belts without removing the AC belt!

Any help SOON would be rad!
