the small 6mm bolt that holds the tensioner in place, does it need to be loose or tight when adjusting the tension, as it moves along it,s slot when tensioning while loose?
belt and tensioner are the same as what was taken off.
do you have a copy from a manual of the tensioning process?
thanks, eric
You loosen the bolt, turn the hex to where you need it to be, hold it in position, and tighten the bolt.
