Ive got a 632, appears identical as far as engine/mounting. I removed the engine with the mounting plate. I left the ROPS in place. Pretty simple procedure. You may need another set of hands when going back in though, lining up the U-joint can be a real pain by yourself.

Also, when you have the engine out, take a peek at the underside of the radiator and oil cooler. Its a good time to clean them if they are real dirty. Mine where so dirty I dont see how there was any airflow.
