Good instruction. I'm at the point where I need to replace my belt and tensioner. Can you offer a few more instructions with respect to removing the old tensioner?

step by step, do you loosen the rod first, remove the belt then remove the tensioner by removing the bolt in its center?

upon installing the new tensioner, do you install the new tensioner with the bolt hand tight, install belt, install rod finger tight, adjust rod to get desired tension on the belt (within the marks) then complete the job my applying 100NM to the center bolt?

Sorry for the need for details, my mechanical IQ can get challenged pretty easily...THX
