Default 94 tensioner

Have 94 Grand Cherokee and cannot seem to figure out how to loosen the tensioner (on left side of block below the alternator) so I can replace my alternater. I have a Chiltons, which has been completely worthless. Could use some help. Thanks

Put a wrench on the bolt in the center of the tensioner and rotate it clockwise to remove the belt.

OK, I figured out how to access my messages. So it's just the bolt on the front! I'm assuming that as it's tightened back into place then it tightens up the belt as well? Thanks ol"blue. By the way, where did you get that great manual?
