Easy job. Take a note of the routing, buy a 16mm spanner and with it lever the tensioner to reduce the tension on the belt.
Adjustable spanners are hard work (heavy and can round the bolt head) so make sure you use a proper 16mm spanner.
In the picture you can see the AC pump, bottom pulley on the crank and two bolt heads further up. The top bolt is for the tensioner. Put a spanner on it to lever the tension away.
