another pic but from the underside of the bracket.

Notice in this pic the part that by the tensioner adjusting nut is bent. That is because the Nut was not loosened on the end of large bolt. If it is bent like that once the Nut on the large Nut is loosened the alternator can be tensioned in a similar manner to all of the Alternators that are on cars that have no tensioner adjustment.

In essence you loosen that large nut and then you get something to lever or pry the Alternator to move it. When you are happy with where the alternator and belts are adjusted you tighten up that nut and lock it in place. And fix the bent part at a later date.
