This is how tight the bolt is done up, the manufacturer will specify this is newton meter or foot pound. You will then need a Tourque wrench to measure the force as you tighten the bolt.

Yes, it is used to adjust the tension on the A/C compressor. Looking into the engine compartment from the passenger side it is to the left of the alternator. To adjust tension you need to loosen the bolt which holds the pulley and then adjust the bolt which is directly above the pulley. Once you have proper tension tighten the pulley bolt.
