The special sockets that should be used with an air impact wrench is a socket that has been designed with a spring steel that will act as a torsion spring. A special socket is needed in order to take advantage of the impact's wrench inability to work against a spring.
ANS 2
The sockets used for impact duty (called "impact sockets") are made with thicker walls and tempered to a lower hardness so as not to shatter under the impacts of the impact tool.

It is a spring loaded type which requires you to pull against the spring so you can install the belt. I use a good socket wrench with a 1' extension (3/8" socket wrench will fit in the square hole you can see in the tensioner arm) and a large enough box wrench to fit over the socket wrench handle to help get the needed leverage with one hand, and because of the limited space you have to position the socket wrench.
