I think that the way the tensioner and it's arm works is "one way", and if you turn it counter-clockwise, the tensioner arm might not keep tension properly or even catch on the chain. Any instructions I've seen have stated "clockwise only"; when I was doing my timing chain, I saw that the area of chain between the RH cam gear and the tensioner arm was going slack if I moved it backwards. Needless to say, not good, and I didn't go any further to find out what would happen!
