is recommended if air cond. doesn't work

Yes. The ac belt only runs the ac and it will not hurt to run with out it.
Begin by loosening the tensioner pulley. Take the old air conditioning drive belt on. Put the new air conditioning drive belt on and tighten the tensioner pulley.
The drive belt diagram for your ML 270, can be obtained from most Mercedes-Benz dealerships. The drive belt diagram can be found at many auto-parts stores.

A drive belt will go around the pulley on the alternator . If you have a serpentine belt it will drive all the accessories attached to the engine . Alternator , power steering pump , air conditioning compressor etc .
I think you mean the Supercharger belt? You cannot drive anywhere without your accessory belt... You can drive as long as you want without your Supercharger belt but be prepared for a substantial loss in power.
The serpentine drive belt is on the outside of the engine and is used to drive the accessories ( such as air conditioning compressor , power steering etcetera ) The cam belt ( timing belt ) is protected by a plastic cover and connects the engine crankshaft with the engine camshaft or camshafts
If your vehicle has a serpentine belt that is used to drive the accessories ( alternator , air conditioning compressor , power steering , etcetera ) the serpentine belt has a spring loaded tensioner that is supposed to keep the proper tension on the belt ( if it is working correctly )
The powersteering pump is driven by the serpentine belt. There is only the one belt to drive everything

Remove the belt from your Mercedes-Benz 240 air conditioning compressor. Remove the air conditioning hoses. Remove the compressor retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new air conditioning compressor.
