belt install

do you guys know how i can get the smaller belt back onto the radiator, waterpump, air pump, and crank pullys? I got the bigger one on by opening the idle tension er, but the other belt has nothing like that.

Thank you, you were right. I didnt think that you could use an accessory to tension a belt, but i guess so, thanks!
