The only way I could do it was unbolt the bed and tip it sideways to lower
the pulley - then I just used that big cast iron mass to leverage it back

purring like a kitten now, all fresh and clean.

If there truly is no mechanism for adjusting the belt tension -- and I bet
there is; check the manual -- then next time, get a link belt.
