Default ST170 Auxiliary belt tensioner

Hi all,

wanted to change my timing belt over the weekend and noticed that the auxiliary/serpentine belt tensioner was seized. Have noticed online that they seem to seize a lot, is that the case or is it more of a technique to loosen it (clockwise turn of the centre bolt) by having the spanner at a certain position to give best leverage?

cheers

Jim
