Easy, if the belt tension is good to drive the alternator and engine accessories it's ok. If the belt does not maintain proper tension, or it's making noise replace the tensioner. There is no user adjustment. I like the NAPA part as oem replacement.

Then when you put the new belt on pull it back to get it on the pullies then release it to tension the belt.

What is centrifugal and initial tension of belt drive?
Centrifugal tension in a belt drive refers to the tension that develops in the belt due to its rotation, which increases as the belt speed rises. This tension acts outward and can reduce the effective tension transmitting power between the driving and driven pulleys. Initial tension, on the other hand, is the tension applied to the belt when it is first installed, ensuring it remains in contact with the pulleys and reduces slippage. Both types of tension are crucial for the efficient operation and longevity of the belt drive system.

Is a serpentine belt and drive belt one in the same?

Is a serpentine belt the same thing as a generator drive belt?

A serpentine belt is wider that a drive belt and is not a V-Belt like a drive belt.
How do you tension drive belt on toro XL380H?
To tension the drive belt on a Toro XL380H, first, locate the belt tension adjustment mechanism, usually found near the engine or on the drive pulley. Loosen the adjustment bolts slightly, then adjust the tension until the belt has about 1/2 inch of deflection when pressed down in the middle. Once the desired tension is achieved, tighten the adjustment bolts securely. Finally, check the belt alignment and ensure it runs smoothly on the pulleys.
What is the tensioner?

What method is used to tension the drive belt?
