What happens here

The video demonstrates manually adjusting the tension without a tension gauge, emphasizing the importance of proper tension for optimal operation. This step would typically involve loosening mounting bolts, adjusting the alternator position to increase tension, and then re-tightening the bolts.

Goal: Adjust the tension of the alternator belt.
