2084 slop

[Tony Hoffman]

I built my own, so it doesn't really line up with any of the marks. I just
use it for loosening/final tightening. IOW, I loosen the bolt, then turn the
crank to line up the marks, do the belt, then tighten with teh tool. Recheck
that the marks line up, and done.

HTH,
Tony
