Hi. Right hopefully you'll be able to follow me. So here goes!
1, place the cylindrical spacer over the wormdrive (not sure what the exact name is)
2, seat the spring onto the wormdrive making sure it locates in the slot at the bottom.
3, now place this into the cct housing making sure the spring tab at the top locates into the thin slot on the side of the cct housing,
4, get a screwdriver
5, whilst holding the top of the wormdrive with your thumb turn the wormdrive with the screwdriver 5 full turns
6, keep the tensioner on the spring with the screwdriver!! this is where you fit the plunger to the top of the wormdrive and carry on turning with the screwdriver until it winds itself all the way down,
7, refit springclip (circlip) this is a bit fiddley
8, as I said previously this is a guesstimation but it felt the same, I had tried it with different amounts of turns and 5 felt the same as the other tensioner
