This is what I did on a hot 92-degree afternoon -  Take my excavator apart to replace the starter because it hung up and was making a horrible grinding noise.  I didn't want the starter to trash the flywheel.  

Parts are hard to find on a Mitsubishi "grey market" machine.  I found mine on Amazon, it's the same starter as a Cub Cadet. You can find it here - https://amzn.to/2OklEQ5 **As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases**

The Mitsubishi floor has to come out, then the electrical panel below the seat, and unplug all the connectors that connect it to the turrent. 
Disconnect the battery.   
There's a small piece of flat steel held by 3 bolts that give you access to the starter.  On the top of the starter, there is a bolt threaded into the bell housing with a lock washer and a nut on the opposite side. The bottom bolt you Can NOT see or reach( unless you are some kind of crazy contortionist).  A camera must be used to guide multiple extensions with a socket under the radiator to the bolt.  If dropped you can get it once the starter is out. Installation is the reverse.  

I made this video quickly and didn't really have the time to spend making a thorough video, Sorry.  I needed the excavator back in action quickly
I hope this is enough of a guide to show what it takes to get the starter out.
