Timing belt swap on 1.6 8V

I want to change the timing belt on my punto 1.6 8V.

The manual talks about a special tool for tensioning the belt. I presume this is just a rod of known lenth with a weight on the end, which you bolt onto the tensioner pulley. Does anyone know where I could find technical details for this tool, so I can make one?
