Assuming it's a70's CB450 K then it's easy.
Remove spark plugs
Remove generator cover at crank right side lower (3 screws)
Turn crank until the marks align and the left cyl is at TDC and valves closed - ie on compression stroke can check you are on the compression stroke either bay taking a peak into the bore through the plug hole annd observing valves closing, or by putting your finger over the plug hole and feeling the compression build...
The tensioner unit is fitted at the back of the barrels
Slacken the 10mm lock nut a few turns
Slacken the 10mm bolt a couple of turns - this releases the tensioner plunger
Rock the crank back and forth no more than 10 degs of movement on the spanner / wrench
Set at TDC again
Tighten the tensioner bolt (be careful this is a small dia bolt made out of mild steel)
Tighten the lock nut
Refit the plugs
Refit the generator cover
Job done !
