PAS belt tension

[james]

I'm having to replace the PAS belt in my brava 1.2 as the old one frayed and fell off. My haynes manual only refers to this briefly and doesn't give me all the info I need. I need to know how to slack off the tension so I can loop the new belt around both wheels. The manual refers to 2 bolts on adjuster slots but doesn't show where they are. Any help will be gratefully received.

from what i can remember from doing mine on the 20v there is only 1 bolt on the adjustable tensioner.On the swing bracket there is 1 bolt.Just slacken it and itll drop to end of bracket,then put new belt on and tension it back up.You dont want it oo tight tho,just enough play in it will be fine
