Lift the barrels an inch or so, compress the tensioner by hand and lock it off with the locknut, Then lower the barrels whilst making sure the end of the tensioner goes into the slot. Check the tensioner body isn't bent, a lot are. It should look straight to the eye. If it's bent straighten it.

Thanks Oddjob.

This was the only way to do it.
