holding the tension on tighten the gate motor mounting bolts
(stretch method )
put the drive belt central on the motor splines offer the belt to the large pulley fed the belt on you will come to a point where the belt seems to short, at this point start to turn the large pulley ,keep fingers away from edge the belt will stretch and jump on to the pulley.( like fitting a chain on a bike)give the drum a couple of turns to try it
