Hi there, you will need a 3/8" driver. This can be put into the hole on the front of the tensioner pully which has two pulleys on it and is just above and to the left of the airconditioner pulley. You can then turn the driver anti-clockwise which will release the tension and you should then be able to slide the belt off. Same can be done in reverse.
It is probably easier if you get someone else to slide the belt off as the tensioner can require a lot of force to release.
Hope this helps

Cheers, Rhys
