the tensioner is self tightening. it is spring loaded and adjusts automatically as the belt wears and stretches. if it will no longer keep belt tight, replace belt. if belt is already replaced,and still loose, make sure that the belt is installed in the correct position on all pully's. if this still doesnt work, replae tensioner with a new one
