Alternator replacement '89 240 DL 200

So I'm in the middle of replacing my alternator.. been having to work on it about 30-45 minutes a day over the past 3 days because of work and limited sunlight when i get off work.

I got the new one in. I have the connections hooked up. belts on. but I'm having a little trouble remembering exactly how the belt adjustment screw goes.

I have the bolt from the alt. into the belt adjustment assy. but the long screw on the belt adjuster has that block that the alt. bolt goes into, and i'm not sure if i have it upside down or if it even matters.

i have an aged copy of the haynes book, but if there were a detailed online guide with more pictures, that would be much better!

I read a post about alt. replacement on here but the directions were very unspecific. This is by far the most advanced wrench turning i've ever done on a car and i'm really new to this. I want to make sure i'm doing it all right the first time, every step of the way.

any help is greatly appreciated.
