You would want to be a "good" weekend mechanic. The rear half is not much of a problem. Just a couple of blocks and either a floor jack or a bottle jack. The front half gets a little more complicated. With a wide front end you can put blocks on either side of the front end to keep it from tilting from side to side.

Hugh MacKay described months ago of using a pallet jack and some cribbing to roll half of the tractor around. I good splitting stand would be the best way. That will bolt to both sides of the motor and provide support for the back of the engine plus it will keep it from tilting to the left or right. If you are unsure of your capabilities you would probably be $$$ ahead to take it to a capable mechanic.
