Default PS Pump removal

I am still trying to get my PS pump out of the car. I have removed all bolts that are indicated in the manual and everything is kind of flopping around, but I do not have enough room to remove the fan belt or to slide the pump free of the brackets. What else needs to be removed or loosened? Am I reading the manual correctly that there are two studs that come off the back of the pump and one bolt through the front that need to be removed or are there some additional bolts and how come there is not enough play to get the fan belt off? Sure need some help here, Thanks, Wells

I think you have identified the problem. You have to remove the fan and all belts before you tackle the pump. Once you do that it will come right off.
