posed screw threads on the old tensioner then rotate the screw
in the new one to match the old one.
3. Insert the belt through the new tensioner so that the belt teeth
face the pulley.
4. Guide both ends of the belt through the hole in the endplate
and in front of the traverse.
5. Hold the new carriage belt tensioner so that the two tabs and
screw tip rest in the holes and detent in the right endplate.
(Figure 61.) To the left of the Service Station area, hold both
webs of the carriage belt to maintain slight belt tension so that
the carriage belt tensioner doesn't move out of place.
