replacing the starter

Disconnect the battery first, you will need to pull the engine with the gearbox, drop the prop and exhaust and remove all the wheels and petrol tank. Pull off the small wire going to the starter which is a spade connector having a brown plastic cover, remove the main thicker cable to the starter which is bolted on. Crawl underneath and remove one of the two fixing nuts, the other nut can be accessed from the engine bay. Ignore the instructions in blue, on the other hand you’ll properly had wished you had pulled the engine out by the time you had finished. Why are you removing the starter may I ask.?
