I’m using an old torque wrench on a socket, so plenty of leverage. Good info about the drilling. I’ll check that out as it will save my wife pushing the bar while I struggle with the belt!

As always, thanks for your help.
Cheers.
You could use a ten foot scaffold pole, if you aren't rotating the tensioner far enough the belt will never fit ;)

All sorted now. Charging to about 14.8V so I'm OK with that. Even with a 2030mm belt it was a struggle to get on, but there's still movement in the tensioner so it's not 'over-tight'.

As always - thanks to all who helped me out with advice and suggestions.

Cheers
