Place a 14mm box end wrench (or a socket w/ratchet as a second best choice) on the bolt in the center of the tensioner pulley (for reference, its the pulley where the red arrow in the picture in the very first post of this thread points to). Push the tensioner pulley downwards and and hold it there with one hand while you slip the belt into place. Then slowly let the tensioner pulley back up to put pressure back on the belt. Skip ahead to 15:28 in this video and you can see the guy do this:

Thanks a lot! It was easy! Lol
