Squealing Fanbelt on 88 XT-6

[Vince Heuring]

How do i adjust the fanbelt on my xt/xt-6? I see the slider bolt that
should be the one, but I'm not sure where the lock bolt that locks it
is.

Any help?

TIA

It's that acorn-looking nut in the center of the idler pulley. Don't
forget to retighten it after the belt adjustment.

Great, thanks! Now what should it be torqued to? (I know, until it
stops squealing. But is there a torque specified?

TIA, Vince
