Hello,
The best option would be to remove the timing belt and re-install to ensure everything is properly aligned and timed.
This way you will be able to first install the tensioner then put on the belt.

I have attached the timing belt procedure below including all the markings and torque specifications.
Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
