If your talking about taking the tension off, then an open end 19mm wrench will work.

Default Here is a diagram showing placement of the wrench

and direction to remove the belt tension.

This shows a special tool to hold the tensioner out of the way. I did not use it when I replaced my serp belt. Remove tension with wrench in one and remove the belt with the other hand. Same to install new belt. It's a little bit tricky but possible. The whole thing took about 20 minutes. Just make double sure that the new belt is completely on each pulley before you try to start it.
